Election Day 2009
It’s the first Tuesday in November, and it’s time for your voting stories and the traditional informal, unofficial, thoroughly unscientific Brian Lehrer Show exit poll. Plus, the latest analysis on not just New Jersey and New York City contests, but important races in upstate New York, Maine, Virginia, and elsewhere.
