Saw the news on Fox after reading this, going to be fun to watch this one. Already a nasty race due to the mud slinging.

Glad I live in TX.

No kidding. Mass confusion up there. There may be a recount in the Dem. primary for Gov. Incumbent leads his opponent by 7,902 votes but absentee balloting has yet to be counted.
