Polls Close in NJ
The first race that everyone is really waiting for. The polls are officially closed in the state of New Jersey. Here is how the state of jersey voted by county in 2005 when it elected Jon Corzine.
| County | Total | Corzine | Corzine % | Forrester | Forrester % | Atlantic | 64,781 | 34,539 | 53% | 28,004 | 43% | Bergen | 256,019 | 142,319 | 56% | 108,017 | 42% | Burlington | 127,532 | 64,421 | 51% | 57,908 | 45% | Camden | 127,492 | 76,955 | 60% | 45,079 | 35% | Cape May | 31,797 | 14,375 | 45% | 16,179 | 51% | Cumberland | 32,503 | 18,580 | 57% | 12,692 | 39% | Essex | 180,557 | 131,312 | 73% | 45,789 | 25% | Gloucester | 77,357 | 41,128 | 53% | 33,225 | 43% | Hudson | 115,869 | 87,409 | 75% | 25,769 | 22% | Hunterdon | 44,704 | 15,004 | 34% | 27,521 | 62% | Mercer | 99,059 | 56,592 | 57% | 38,871 | 39% | Middlesex | 191,282 | 107,176 | 56% | 75,021 | 39% | Monmouth | 194,648 | 85,187 | 44% | 101,085 | 52% | Morris | 147,533 | 60,986 | 41% | 82,550 | 56% | Ocean | 172,888 | 71,953 | 42% | 93,693 | 54% | Passaic | 106,748 | 61,803 | 58% | 41,532 | 39% | Salem | 20,673 | 10,057 | 49% | 9,608 | 46% | Somerset | 93,526 | 40,459 | 43% | 49,406 | 53% | Sussex | 42,319 | 14,854 | 35% | 25,283 | 60% | Union | 131,695 | 77,982 | 59% | 50,036 | 38% | Warren | 31,117 | 11,460 | 37% | 18,003 | 58% | 2,290,099 | 1,224,551 | 53% | 985,271 | 43% |

Impossible to really say which counties will come in first and in what order, but counties like Gloucester and Atlantic may be the ones to watch to see how the state might end up as they closely mirrored the results in 2005 on a county level.
Anyway, the official results can be found here, but as usual I am sure there will be websites that find results faster.
firsto
very nice chart, Dave
3
4. It’s the past, though.
BTW, FOX News said the VA GOP or the VA Dems have only won all the Top 3 statewide seats ONCE. I think that was 1993, when Allen won.
Hmmmmm.
That means the GOP is on the verge of a historic GOP comeback and a Hat Trick within …. a Hat Trick???
#4,
Nothing to see move along.
But..but..but..we still have cigs and wine to give away!
Nothing to do with Obama. Nope, nada, zero, zilch.
Anyone who thinks otherwise is a racist who hangs out at Klan meetings.
BREAKING NEWS!
The dead have come alive in Patterson, NJ. A judge orders that precinct to stay open until all the previously dead can vote.
It is a great day for Liberty in the state of VA!!!!
CNN projects all three VA races to GOP
Anyone listening to Karl Rove? If no, you should be.
By my current count (at 8:11 pm), Reps are leading in 64 of 100 VA house races, Dems in 29.
The makeup in the house is Reps 53, Dems 43.
I think that a certain Senator Webb has to be just a little bit nervous tonight!
Source is pessimistic on NJ,
Feels that we may be down 15k votes after all counting.
OMG – that is worse than the worse-case scenario for the dems.
So the Republicans sweep the 3 statewide offices in VA. Pretty good for a party that as CNNCBSABCBBNC says is “dead” “out of the mainstream” “out of touch” “fractured” I would say.
Christie weekend internals better than Whitman’s at this point in 93, according to Patrick Ruffini.
I don’t think anyone can know at this point Tina.
VA House of Delegates (omitting seats with only a few hundred votes in so far)–
Reps won or leading in 54
Dems won or leading in 25
Very few or no returns yet 21
So looks like substantial gains in the House.
NUMBERS:
Chesterfield CO. (right next to Richmond) McD up 72% to 27% w/ 3% ov votes in
Fairfax Co. (NOVA) McD by 53 to 46% w/ 5% in
Chesapeake City McD by 65 – 35% w/ 28% in
VA Beach McD 66 – 34% w/ 10% in
Yep to No. 16.
**** those liars and fabricators.
Remember when Rachel Maddow declared Reaganism dead on Jan. 20?
What a devious witch. I hope she is sitting on tacks tonight….
Christie 62%
Corzine 29%
Daggett 8%
Even better for the GOP is that at current count 5 incumbent Democrat state house members are losing to their Republican challengers;)!
Cheers, take care & God Bless,
GOPGUY1980
14. “Source is pessimistic on NJ,
Feels that we may be down 15k votes after all counting.”
You mean statewide??????????????
I think the GOP gains in NJ state senate and assembly no matter what.
No source can predict to the last 15k votes at this time I would think. Watch intrade now; Corzine is being dumped; investors reading tea leaves from Virginia thrashing.
Yes, after all voting is done in NJ only.
He now says that we may be up 10,000 – sees indies compromising a large portion of the electorate in NJ – (larger than first guestimated).
Wow. McD up by 24 with 55% in. Ugly night for Obama. You can’t campaign for people who get decimated and then say it had nothing to do with you.
Strike that, they can and will say whatever they want. The people are sending a loud and clear message.
The email was from 2.5 hours ago, sorry, its not current. I have not been able to post/read emails, etc. Let me go through the emails first from him…
61-29 in Ocean county
McCAin won this county 59-40.
For those of you that bought Christie at 40 and are nervous, sell them while he is at 60 if you cannot wait until the finish.
when we will get first numbers of NJ???
The source was right on VA – blow out he said… He is keyed into this race, but not NJ (he only gets second hand stuffO).
Brandon,
Where are you getting your numbers?
Frank
Deeds is running about 7 points behind Kaine in Arlington/Alexandria at the moment.
MD, this source usually sends me 1 or 2 emails, but he sent me 10. What’s up with that? Why send me stuff, when I had no access to the computer all day.

I think personally that we may be ok in NJ given the indy turnout and what appears to be a larger turnout among Rs.
Everybody and their brother thinks that New Jersey is going to go down to the wire. But one of my readers is plugged in to a New Jersey Democrat, and this guy’s running of the numbers goes to Republican Chris Christie winning by one percentage point. Admission against interest, and all that. Take it for what it’s worth.
NRO
http://www.breitbart.com/article.php?id=D9BOD4BO1&show_article=1
“Voters who said the economy was important favored Corzine, while voters who said taxes mattered most supported Christie.”
54/37/8
Remember, in NJ, it needs to be a 4 to 5 point lead for Christie. Anything less, and I fear that Corzine; the D courts; and the union thugs steal it.
Frank good to see you.
Christie winning indies by 25% with the indies comprising 27% of electorate.
Tina agreed
Roland Martin is a raving moron. I have no idea why he’s on TV (although he fits in well on CNN).
THe Dem on BOR is an idiot. He said that McDonnell’s ads never said he was a Republican. What a bunch of crap! EVERYBODY knows he was a Republican. Excuses, excuses, excuses.
Tina, NRO is aying Chris is up 58 to 33 with Indy’s.
Olbermann is crazy as hell.
Tina,
The NJ race has people hyped up.
Best GOTV effort ever?
http://www.politickernj.com/matt-friedman/34770/webber-gop-had-best-gotv-operation-ever
51/40/8
I just don’t see Corzine getting more than low 40s.
What a collapse among the Ds in VA!!!!!
Pitch, in any other state a big indy lead like that would get a early call.
Me smells that that sneaky RR Corzine may finally be caught – coyote is howling….i can smell victory!!!
I emailed my source and told him do not send me shit from 3 hours ago.
53. Brandon i am a moron 51/40 ?????
#49 – needs more then 25% advantage there, think they were expecting like 30%
new jersey
Hi Tina
Hi frank
what a great night
now I go to bed for a while-but with a smile
:-=)))
A lot of negative\nervous news on the NJ conference call I’m on.
Bunch of people on this call getting buses arranged for Thursday event to hit congress on the head.
The Gloucester county numbers look good right now.
#63
Why? Bad news for Christie?
Brandon – what about the Gloucester numbers?
These races are not reflective on the Obumbler, not even 20 percent of it.
Right!!!
Knight,
Details?
May Corzine go down to an embarassing defeat, I hope?
#67. It’s only 46-44 Corzine.
#50 they invented straightjackets and Haldol for loons like Olberman – he is a straight up jerk plain and simple….
I hated his sorry carcas even when he was a sad-sack sportscaster on ESPN – always told lame jokes and thought he was just the funniest SOB on the planet….
I see that arrogance has only disintegrated into hateful lunacy now that he decided too become a “real” commentator….
If Corzine does lose, it’ll be a squeaker. A 1-vote loss would be fine with me!
Which county was it that has predicted within 0.5%?
Gloucester was 53.2-43 Corzine in 2005, almost EXACTLY the overall totals.
#74. Atlantic, but they are usually slow to report.
Do not make fun of Overbite and Rowland Doughbouy Williams, they are bi partisan.
High turn out in certain Corzine areas desipe what we may have heard, and the indi margin not quite what the Christie camp wanted 30+, 25% may not get it done.
Yeah soruce confirms a possible 10k vote margin either way.
I am sad.
At least that was what I caught, I missed the beginning of the convo.
Gloucester 46-44 Christie
http://www.co.gloucester.nj.us/Government/Departments/Elections/electionresults/Election%20Result.htm
Uh. So my prediction may come true? Crap
Please prove me wrong people of NJ.
50/42/8
With 22% in in Ocean County, Christie running way way ahead of Forrester in 2005. *If* this is a representative sample, this would project to a 70k+ margin! Daggett at 6% and falling.
drudge posting NJ returns. Christie up so far
This is a good point from NRO
“Public Policy Polling notes that their final poll had Christie winning the independents by 23; the exit polls indicate Christie won them by 25. They interpret this as a sign that most Daggett supporters and undecideds went into the Christie pile. PPP’s final poll put Christie up 6 overall.”
Sold Christie for 68; Corzine at 34 – any takers?
I don’t like what is going on in Cumberland. Hopefully that tightens.
Going dark until 10 pm. Can’t stand watching second by second.
I’d like my cheeseburger with extra ketchup and tomato.
Brandon, I noticed in your post 38 that the Democrats got 10 Independents to run and help split the vote.
Last trade 70-30 Christie
Brandon
Is Gloucester a heavy Dem county?
Glouster is tied? It was 53-43 Corzine in 2005
McCain won Ocea 58/40
Christie now slightly ahead in Gloucester.
Sure sounding like both sides are nervous in NJ.
#84 – That’s not unexpected results though.
If Christie wins Gloucester, that might bode well. But it’s too early to say.
Obama won Glouchester 55-43
#100
Thanks, TB.
I need wine
By some glitch, the VA site now shows me 86-14 McDonnell…. HA!!!!
I will also have to leave for good at 7 PST.
Marv, what is the mentality with Intrade?
Crazier than a drunken bowel movement
Maine
REJECT SAME-SEX MARRIAGE LAW
Yes 3837 50.67%
No 3736 49.33%
49/43/7
According to VA website,
DEEDS 465,717 (14%)
MCDONNELL 2,757,057 (86%)
That would be nice, however it’s showing 2 million votes in Loudoun county for McDonnell…
Chek, as you can tell by my posts, on my second bottle, saluting VA
Chek – Gloucester is a classic mix of blue and white collar
What county is the home to Newark?
Brandon, Newark is in Essex, yes?
Yes, Essex.
Not really they will be some of the last areas.
Wow, look at the margin in Ocean.
It’s early but if Corzine is -14 from Obama’s 75% there.
jason, intrade is now betting with precinct returns. Corzine is trailing and therefore those that bet on him are cutting their losses. As for Christie, it depends on your stomach for risk; for a guy like me who makes 25 cents on the dollar I bail out and avoid any last minute upset. Gutsy people will stick it out and if he indeed wins, make big money.
50% counted in Gloucester and Christie is still up 1! good sign!
62922/43350
37 point margin in Ocean. WOW
Ocean Co –
65% Christie – 28% Corzine – 5.5% Daggett with 35% in
Bush carried by 21% in 2004, lost state by 6%
#118 – Yeah that does look good.. needs to stay that way.
lol, Atlantic 1.6% in Corzine up by 70
Somebody was posting on the rightpundits blog… Monmouth 62.73 Christie, 30.76 Corzine? Brandon, any insight?
I want a limoncello.
37 point margin in Ocean. WOW
—
Kinda I was thinking he needed 30 there.
#124. That is huge. He needed to run up big margins there and it looks like he did.
The one county I dont like so far is Hudson, too close to 2005…the others look good
50 percent of NJ – want more government.
We are phuqed.
“Monmouth 62.73 Christie, 30.76 Corzine? ”
—
seriously?
Christie is up in Bergen!!
#129
My thought exactly. Pathetic. Some people never learn.
REP – Christie/Guadagno 68,594 62.73%
DEM – Corzine/Weinberg 33,631 30.76%
Where is Eph?
Governor – General 788 of 6305 Precincts Reporting – 12% Name Party Votes Vote % Christie, Chris GOP 151,394 51% Corzine, Jon (i) Dem 124,952 42%
NJ – 12% reporting
Christie 51
Corzine 42
Daggett 6
Where is Wes?
Christie 47-44 Gloucester.
Daggett pulling only 6% so far. What about all those polls showing him up there at 15% – 20%????????
I beat up Wes all day and he went crying to go look at pictures
btw if #130 holds things look good.
14% in
52% / 42% / 6%
TB
Where is Eph?
Guys, this is looking REAL good for Christie
Beautiful margin from Hunterdon too.
#138 – what % reporting now??
In case anyone’s still interested in VA,
76% reported
McD 61
Deeds 39
Phoenix, to God’s ears.
#147
What a spanking!!!!
Just be patient with the precincts that are still reporting zero %–the dump trucks have many precincts before they get to all of them.
The Fox News bottom line reporting bar is a glorious site.
16% in, NJ
Christie 54% (207,647)
Corzine 40% (154,146)
Daggett 6% *21,697)
16% in. 54/40
NY-23 coming up!
It is a good day to be a Virginian!!!
Tony, look for Joe Pesci and Bobby DeNiro
I told you guys — No one runs to vote for higher taxes, or a third party that would assure those higher taxes. Or empowerment of corruption.
Christie may do this!
Guys minus some big change Polaris prediction is on track to be about right.
#129 Do those 50% also think ingesting massive quantities of crack daily is needed too???
Geesshhhh, your right – what is left of the nation where there are no productive citizens left to loot???
#150
I thought the same. It seems that urban areas are not reporting. They need to know how many votes they need. I just hope that Christie has a legal team on the ground.
holy crap! Christie is going to win Gloucester!
Bergen county looks good….Corzine won in 2005, it’s a Christie lead
160…of course. They always hold back to see if the race is in the MOF. Then if it is, the cemetery precincts suddenly report.
18% reporting; 52-41, Christie
Are the early votes in these totals?
52/41
#165. Yes, they report first.
I’m just nervous that those urban votes are going to dump late and sink us.
new thread
#168
me too….
“The Fox News bottom line reporting bar is a glorious site.”
I love how they run it during commercials!!!! God bless FOX and their sponsors.
Cam Rep, my stomach shares your worry.
49/44 25% in
50/44 28% in
Any news in Penn with the Supreme Court
“holy crap! Christie is going to win Gloucester!”
—
maybe be just the margin he need to get over the large D numbers in Hudson river counties.
#162 Bergen looks like the largest county in the state as far as votes – if Chritie wins there I dont see how Corzine can pull it out….
I think looking at raw vote totals, Chritie needs to get 1.1 million plus votes tonight….thats the number I am looking at
crap another new thread?
Gloucester:
JON S. CORZINE 33,640 44.01%
- CHRIS CHRISTIE 36,117 47.26%
91% in
We need to see the turnout in the Dem counties. Even if Corzine wins by big margins, the raw number might not be enough.
Anybody have a link for NY23?
Frank
Essex and Camdem is where Corzine will run up the vote….of course they are holding them back to see what they need. I hope Christie has lawyers in those counties.
Ok some Camdem and Essex now….Corzine does not have what he needs from the precints that are in.
Tina……what is a limoncello?
Re turnout…with roughly half the vote in from Essex Corzine is leading by 28k votes…he got a plurality of over 85k votes in 2005. He won’t get there tonight.
In 2005 180k votes were cast in Essex. We are at 242/551 precints and about 75k votes cast. Not getting to 180k in Essex.
Passaic County….Corzine won by 20k in 2005. With 33% in he has a lead of 3k.
And so on the line. I think Christie wins.
down the line i meant…
FYI AP has the sussex number reversed!.
Christie better damned hold back his precincts and play a waiting game. I’ve seen this movie before. We throw in and they see what they need and count us out at the end.
Nytimes has fixed the numbers and christie now holds the 60 in the 60-20 there.
Vote % 60
Christie, ~~~ 722,673~~~ 50%
Corzine, ~~~~~ 631,965 ~~44
yup race is over corzine lost.
