My Internet crashed on the day of the reporting of the Massachusetts special Senate election. My prediction said Ed Markey looked like a prohibitive favorite and he won. The median poll said he was leading by seven to ten points, he won by ten.
The other two elections in the news are the governor's race in Virginia and the special Senate election in New Jersey. There hasn't been any news since the middle of July in Virginia, where McAuliffe is still leading in the median polls.
There is news from New Jersey, but it is of zero interest to those who want an exciting race. Newark mayor Cory Booker has a huge lead in the Democratic primary and former Bogota mayor Steve Lonegan looks to be a shoo-in in the Republican primary. In the general election, Booker has a massive lead as well, though there is a long time between now and the October 16 special election, strangely scheduled for a Wednesday.
