Witching Hour

We are in the weird zone at just after 7 pm EST, when nobody really knowsanything and political types are flashing inside information around the country.

I picked up the following from a Democratic source. It sounds verypromising for Democrats, but don’t jump to conclusions at this hour.

Witching Hour

We are in the weird zone at just after 7 pm EST, when nobody really knowsanything and political types are flashing inside information around the country.

I picked up the following from a Democratic source. It sounds verypromising for Democrats, but don’t jump to conclusions at this hour.

First-breakout of exit polls for Senate races in eight states showDemocrats leading:

Virginia 52-47. Rhode Island 53-46. Pennsylvania 57-42. Ohio 57-43. New Jersey 52-45. Montana 50-48. Maryland 52-46.

Republicans are leading in Tennesseee 51-48 and Arizona 50-46.

Again, don’t pop any corks yet…but this does make a nice start forthe evening.

Thank you for reading The Nation!

We hope you enjoyed the story you just read, just one of the many incisive, deeply-reported articles we publish daily. Now more than ever, we need fearless journalism that shifts the needle on important issues, uncovers malfeasance and corruption, and uplifts voices and perspectives that often go unheard in mainstream media.

Throughout this critical election year and a time of media austerity and renewed campus activism and rising labor organizing, independent journalism that gets to the heart of the matter is more critical than ever before. Donate right now and help us hold the powerful accountable, shine a light on issues that would otherwise be swept under the rug, and build a more just and equitable future.

For nearly 160 years, The Nation has stood for truth, justice, and moral clarity. As a reader-supported publication, we are not beholden to the whims of advertisers or a corporate owner. But it does take financial resources to report on stories that may take weeks or months to properly investigate, thoroughly edit and fact-check articles, and get our stories into the hands of readers.

Donate today and stand with us for a better future. Thank you for being a supporter of independent journalism.

Thank you for your generosity.
