So, has the Maine Senate primary been called yet?
It's been nearly a full day and neither of the media sources I've seen have called it, even though they're both at 98/99%

2. kind of worried about Baldacci
the combined vote in the Democratic primary is far outweighed in the GOP primary for Governor.

3. A lot of ppl are frustrated w/ Baldacci. I worry that a Repub may
get the office as a knee-jerk reaction. Bad, because the guy who won the primary is the most conservative of them all.

4. Baldacci was nearly unstoppable
Repubs had more reasons to vote though the discrepancy is still frustrating.

600 vote margin, reported votes not enough to swing it. A nail biter either way. I am glad that she won (if it holds).
