Here is a link to the California Secretary of State’s web page for election returns, for the 39th Assembly race. Only seven votes separate one of the Democrats from the other Democrat, as of 5:44 p.m. Pacific time on November 10. There are many ballots remaining to be counted.
See this story, which explains why Alaska vote-counting takes so long. As of November 10, there are 53,000 uncounted ballots.
According to this blog post at FrontloadingHQ, Georgia Secretary of State Brian Kemp is working to persuade as many southern states as possible to hold their 2016 presidential primaries on March 1.
On November 7, National Review columnist Jim Geraghty published this column, suggesting that certain states controlled by Republicans might wish to alter selection of presidential electors, so that each U.S. House district would elect one elector. The column has now been discussed in several other major publications, including the Washington Post.
Last month, the BBC said that it would sponsor three debates next year for the 2015 parliamentary election. The most inclusive of these four debates would feature the leaders of the Conservative, Labour, Liberal Democratic, and UKIP Parties. The Green Party would not be included, even though it has an elected member of the House of Commons.
In response, the Green Party has gathered 200,000 signatures asking that the Green Party leader be included, and many prominent politicians from the major parties have signed. See this story, which seems to suggest that the BBC may reconsider.
