The Race for the Senate

[jpmassar]

Latest updates from Nate Silver. Nothing particularly interesting in the Senate races has happened today. There's lots of early voting data, but what it means is unclear. There's nothing of it that I've seen that's particularly unfavorable to Democrats in key races, at least

Perhaps the strangest thing is that the Intrade contract on control of the Senate is at 50%,

47% now...gamblers betting the darkside

The Democrats to control the Senate after 2010 Congressional Elections

Last Price: 47.0 -5.0

not sure...even Charlie Cook said the odds of the Rs taking Senate were non existent today (which is pretty silly). But to me it seems odd
