Colorado: Mark Udall thumped Bob Schaffer easily, 52-43.
New Hampshire: Remember all those stories you read last week about this race tightening? Not so much. Jeanne Shaheen upended Republican incumbent John Sununu and will be the next senator from the Granite State.
New Mexico: Tom Udall won by 22 points, showing once again the American people rejecting Steve Pearce's brand of hard right extremism.
North Carolina: Voters responded to Democrat Kay Hagan's terrific campaign for change by rewarding her with a 9-point victory over incumbent Elizabeth Dole.
Oregon: It's taken two days to count the votes, but I just received word that Gordon Smith has called Jeff Merkley to concede this race.
Virginia: Proving that the Old Dominion is turning a bright shade of blue, Mark Warner trounced Republican Jim Gilmore by 30 points.
And there are 3 more races that aren't decided yet:
Minnesota: Al Franken and Norm Coleman are separated by just 437 votes. This will trigger an automatic recount.
Georgia: Saxby Chambliss has failed to win more than 50% of the vote. Therefore, state law dictates that he will face Democrat Jim Martin in a special run-off election on December 2.
Alaska: Votes are still coming in from remote parts of the state, and the race between Mark Begich and convicted felon Ted Stevens remains too close to call.
