Massive Republican Dirty Tricks Have Begun!
November 7, 2006(Archive)
Mark’s working from prior to poll opening at 6 am until counting the votes at 7 pm to protect people’s right to vote, just stopping briefly to report to you THE INSIDE SCOOP and to report on XM as well.
The Republican dirty tricks have already begun in massive numbers, from fake robocalls to lying to people about their polling places. I am committed to putting these criminal enemies of our democracy in jail for a very long time. If you hear of dirty tricks going on in your locality by either party, let us know on the blog below.

It’s not all bad news out there. 35 states have a verified-voter paper trail now and 13 have that trail audited. It’s far from sufficient but real democracy in America is growing. The hope that one day, we can have virtually hacker-proof elections is not at all out of the question.
A look today at how far we’ve come and how far we have yet to go.
And the best way to have YOUR vote counted tomorrow on November 7.

Predictions October 30 to November 5, 2006
November 5, 2006We’re down to the wire here. It’s two days before the election.
What are your predicted numbers of Democrats (includuding Independents who caucus with Democrats like Bernie Sanders and Joe Lieberman) in the Senate? In the House?
Feel free to change your predictions up until Election Day. Any predictions on November 7 or later will be taken with the proper grain of salt.
Mark’s predictions of how many Democrats (and Democratic-supporting Independents) will be in each chamber:
10/29: Senate 50, House 225 (Dems win PA, OH, RI, MT, VA or MO, hold NJ, prob. lose TN)
10/30: Senate 51, House 230 (Winning VA (with recount) AND MO Senate seats, Dems will control both Houses of Congress!)
10/31: Senate 51, House 235 (House Numbers keep going up!)
Final Prediction: Senate 51; House 230-235
