At the moment, 43% of votes have been counted and Democrat James Thompson, who has led all night, is clinging to a narrow 50-49 edge. A Libertarian candidate has the balance.
But let’s be clear: No matter what happens the rest of the night, this race should never, ever, ever, EVER have been remotely close. This is super-conservative, mega-evangelical, ultra-Republican territory. The GOP should be very afraid.
