Yesterday we posted Rachel Maddow’s round-up of “top-of-ticket” races<\/a> that were still un-“called” on Wednesday after Election Night. Last night, she did us the continuing favor of updating that list with a follow-up detailing a number of those up-in-the-air races that have since been “decided” as based on media calls, candidate concessions, and\/or the completion of unofficial tallies by the computers which do that sort of thing…<\/p>\n

Reminder<\/em>: Neither projections of “winners” by the media or concessions by “losers” have any legal standing on the final outcome of an election. Only officially canvassed and certified election results from elections officials do. In all of the races declared as “over” to date, none of them have actually been certified by officials yet, and in virtually every one of them, ballots (where they exist, as they don’t<\/i> when it comes to Direct Recording Electronic, usually touch-screen, voting machines) have been tallied only by oft-failed, easily-manipulated computer tabulators, with few, if any, such ballots actually being examined by any human beings to assure the computer tabulators have been accurate.<\/p>\n

Also, there are still many un-“called” and\/or contested races across the nation which are not “top-of-ticket”, but which still matter a great deal to both the candidates and voters affected by them.<\/p>\n
