Official results are starting to come out now on the various state Secretary of State websites (or state election board websites).
I'm singling Georgia out because of the upcoming runoff election. I don't have a major analysis, but I do want to highlight one point and the numbers themselves are fairly interesting, I think.
Totals
Georgia
President
3,924,432
1,844,137 Obama 47.0%
2,048,744 McCain 52.2%
31,551 other
Senate
3,752,576
1,757,419 Martin 46.8%
1,867,090 Chambliss 49.8%
128,067 other (nearly all Libertarian)
Aggregate House
3,654,891
1,858,123 Dem 50.8%
1,796,541 Rep 49.2%
227 other
Note: Republicans did not run a candidate in either house district 4 or 5.
Registered Voters: 5,758,135
So, the Congressional Dems actually got more votes combined than Obama.
I think that was clearly the result of Democrats Jim Marshall and John Barrow who represent Republican leaning districts both won comfortably.
In addition to getting the vote out and going after the Libertarian voters
Senate candidate Jim Martin needs to target those who voted for Marshall and Barrow but also voted for Chambliss and McCain.
Also worth noting:
Every Republican incumbent Congressperson in Georgia saw their share of the vote decline from the 2006 election. This was even though 2006 was a 'wave' election that the Republicans said they would rebound from. That said, most incumbents only dropped a little though and can't really be considered vulnerable.
Here are the numbers:
1.District 1, Jack Kingston, 2006: 68.5%, 2008: 66.5%
2.District 3, Lynn Westmorland, 2006: 67.6%, 2008: 65.7%
3.District 6, Tom Price, 2006: 72.4%, 2008: 68.5%
4.District 7, John Linder, 2006: 70.9%, 2008: 62.0%
5.District 9, Nathan Deal, 2006: 76.6%, 2008: 75.5%
6.District 10: Paul Broun, 2007 special election: (won over another Republican), 2008: 60.7%
7.District 11: Phil Gingrey: 2006: 71.1%, 2008: 68.2%
Doug Heckman, the Democrat who caused John Linder's vote to decline from 70.9% to 62.0% is a person the Democrats should recruit to run for something winnable.
