Update 1: And some good news in Kentucky:
Kentucky’s second-largest city has elected an openly gay man as its next mayor. Vice-Mayor Jim Gray was victorious tonight in his second campaign for the city’s top job, beating incumbent Mayor Jim Newberry.
Update 2: Per the exit polls, the partisan breakdown was 36% D, 36% R, and 28% I. Indies broke to the GOP 56-39. So, all in line with the polling.
What does this mean? Probably GOP pickups in the mid-50s. Not the worst-case scenario, but not the best case either. But we'll see as results continue to come in.
