The Republicans took back control of the House in a landslide, while the Democrats managed to retain control of the Senate. The major story here is the shift in Independent voters toward the Republicans due to widespread disaffection with the Democrats' political maneuvering as a majority, coupled with the overall lack of turnout from younger voters.
Here in Florida's Senate race, Tea Party candidate Marco Rubio managed an avalanche victory over Independent (and current Governor) Charlie Crist and Democrat (and laughing-stock) Kendrick Meek.
But we do not yet know who our next Governor will be. Moderate Democrat Alex Sink is just a fraction behind mud-slinging Republican newcomer Rick Scott. Hopefully today we will find out which of these two will be our next Governor.
