Finally August 8
Well, August 8 is finally here, and no matter what happens in the Connecticut Democratic Senate primary, it will be nice to read about something else in the progressive blogosphere for a while.
Apparently turnout is remarkably high, and it's anybody's guess who that favors, though Joe Lieberman's campaign has repeatedly said its strategy depends on getting as many Democrats to the polls as possible.
The polls will close in two and a half hours, so we'll know sooon enough. But I will also be paying attention to the 4th congressional district Democratic runoff in Georgia, where the very latest poll had incumbent Cynthia McKinney still trailing challenger Hank Johnson 53-40. Turnout there seems to be light.
