Polls Closed in Massachusetts

Early word is that heaviest turnout is in Republican candidate Scott Brown precincts. Turnout appears low in urban areas where Coakley needs strong support.

Some Massachusetts suburbs (Scott Brown territory) are reporting turnouts as high as 85%. In urban areas turnout is as low as 25%.

    But when you allow dead people to vote you need to increase the denominator as well, otherwise the percentage is misleading.

  2. I thought that was only going on in that other Democratic stronghold of Chicago...
