[9:15]: no results yet, but per UPI,the Department of Justice is monitoring elections in New York, Kings and Queens Counties.

[9:24]: Ah, first results. Squadron leads Connor by 168 to 122. Two precincts reporting, Felder leads with 11 of 16 votes cast in two EDs.

[9:27]: Ruh roh. In AD-64, 8 of 94 precincts reporting, and Silver leads with 65% of the vote, Newell, 25%, Henry, 10%.

[9:33]: Wha? In NY-26, Alice Kryzan leads the pack with 9% reporting, 43% to 34% for Powers and, haha, 22% for Crazy Jack Davis.
[9:37]: SD-16L Stavisky over Schwartz, 18% reporting, 63% to 37%.

[9:40]: SD-25: 17% reporting, Squadron leads Connor by 62% to 38%. In SD-21, with 4% reporting, Felder leads 83% to Parker's 12% and Stewart's 5%. Oy.

[9:42]: Oy. In NY-13, McMahon leads Harrison with 71% to 29%, 29% of precincts reporting.

[9:46]: Whew. Parker now leads 45% to 38% to 16%.

[9:48]: In NY-10, with 22% reporting, it's Towns over Powell, 59% to 41%. In NY-13, Gooper Straniere leads the other Gooper with 60% to 39%, 25% reporting.

[9:51]: with 33% reporting in SD-25, Dan Squadron leads Marty Connor, 63% to 36%.

[9:54]: In NY-13, with 69% reporting, it's McMahon over Harrison by 75% to 25%. Ouch. In NY-26, Kryzan leads 45% to 32% for Powers and 23% to Jack Davis, with 43% reporting. If Kryzan wins, that has to count as the unexpected upset of the century.

[9:58]: In SD-21, Parker leads 48% to 38% for Felder and 14% for Stewart, with 61% reporting. Up yours, Dean Skelos. In SD-25, with 81% reporting, Squadron leads 58% to 42%. In SD-33, with 57% reporting, Pedro Espada leads Gonzales, 58% to 42%.

[10:05]: A tight race in Brooklyn: Devin Cohen leads Roger Adler in the race for civil court, but only by 50.8% to 49.2%, with 67% reporting.

[10:08]: The Associated Press calls NY-13 for McMahon. In NY-26, with 85% of precincts reporting, Kryzan leads Jon Powers, 41% to 36%. In NY-21, with 41% reporting, Tonko leads Brooks with 41% to 29%.

[10:15]: Associated Press calls the race in SD-25 for Dan Squadron, 55% to 45%.

[10:21]: Yeah, and, fuck you, Gatemouth.

[10:22]: Associated Press calls the race for Sheldon Silver, with 65% of the vote. Paul Newell garnered a respectable 24%, Luke Henry, an embarrassing 9%. Maybe now is the time to again point out to DFNYC that your endorsement policies, whatever they are and if that's the right word, pretty much suck ass.

[10:29]: No winner yet in NY-21 - Tonko leads 42% over 29% for Tracey Brooks, with 41% reporting - but we're looking at an extraordinary upset, just looking at the numbers, in NY-26. The race hasn't been called yet, but with 85% of precincts reporting, Alice Kryzan leads DCCC-backed candidate and netroots favorite Jon Powers by 41% to 36%. Oh God, poor Robert Harding.

[10:47]: Another feather in the WFP cap: Joe Mesi wins his race.

[10:50]: In NY-26, AP calls the race for Kryzan. Didn't see that one coming. Efrain Gonzales is gone, too; prepare to see some furious sucking up by Democrats to ensure Pedro Espada votes with the party on controlling the Senate.

[11:08]: Alrighty, time to wrap up. Still no victor in NY-21; in NY-10, Towns crushed Powell; as noted, the next Senator from the 25th District is Daniel Squadron - aside: again, lefties showed how irrelevant they are - and in Brooklyn, Devin Cohen won a very close over Roger Adler, 3,970 to 3,700 votes. Congratulations to our own Mole333, who's been banging the drum for Cohen ceaselessly for weeks and can probably claim the margin of victory.
