There are your matchups for November, and they should be pretty good ones. The one major thing I noticed about these results is that alot more Republicans voted than Democrats. I dont know how much significance that shows, but the Dems need better turnout if they want to win. Cant wait for the fall baby.

Most democrats i know voted in the republican primary....so dont read too much into those numbers. none of the big democratic races were closely contended.
