Chichester Psalms - Leonard Bernstein

Two days after the election, we still have 2 Senate races and about 50 in the House that haven't been decided. California and Mississippi both count ballots postmarked on election day, so we can't know the outcomes of some races until 14 and 5 days, respectively, after the vote. If Democrat Scott Colom wins his Senate race in Mississippi, it'll be comeuppance for sitting Senator Cindy Hyde-Smith.

Jeff Maurer just raised a really important point from last night's data, and that is that every Senate candidate US Senator Bernie Sanders (D-VT) endorsed did worse than the winning governor in the same state:

Democrats have won the biggest landslide (D+15) in any election since 1974, with the possible exception of 1976. And what happened in 1974? That's right: the previous champion in the Most Corrupt President in History contest got his ass handed to him. Because no matter how anyone tries to spin it, the biggest loser of the night was the OAFPOTUS. He wanted everyone to pretend he was on the ballot yesterday. Well, everyone did.
