Missouri | UPDATE: Continued Precinct Reporting II

Now that Missouri officially went to Bush a couple hours ago, Bush leading 54-45% with 2,405 of 3,943 precincts reporting, the focus has turned to the close gubernatorial race. Republican candidate Matt Blunt has jumped ahead and taken a steady lead against Democrat Claire McCaskill, who previously led hours earlier. The governor’s race is fulfilling pundit’s predictions as being one of the tightest and most difficult to project.

Democrat U.S. Rep. hopeful Russ Carnahan hasn’t dropped his 9 pt. lead on Republican opponent Bill Federer.

The numbers:
U.S. Senator Precincts Reporting 2398 of 3931
Farmer, Nancy DEM 690,755 41.7%
Bond, Christopher (Kit) REP 949,106 57.3%

Governor Precincts Reporting 2392 of 3920
McCaskill, Claire DEM 790,561 47.5%
Blunt, Matt REP 853,523 51.2%

U.S. Representative - District 3 Precincts Reporting 109 of 305
Carnahan, Russ DEM 66,480 53.6%
Federer, Bill REP 55,256 44.5%
