Bennet Wins in Colorado<http://politicalwire.com/archives/2010/11/03/bennet_wins_in_colorado.html>Sen.
Michael Bennet (D-CO) will be elected to the U.S. Senate after pulling ahead
of challenger Ken Buck (R) this morning, the Denver
Post<http://www.denverpost.com/election2010/ci_16502977>
 reports.

"Long after most Coloradans -- including the candidates and their supporters
-- had gone to bed, returns from Denver and Boulder moved Bennet past Buck
and into the lead, 47.5% to 47.1%. A recount would be required if the
difference between the two candidates' vote totals is less than one-half of
1 percent of the highest vote total, or about 3,900 votes based on current
tallies."

Scott Wins in Florida<http://politicalwire.com/archives/2010/11/03/scott_wins_in_florida.html>Rick
Scott (R) rode a Republican wave to victory over Alex Sink (D) in the
Florida governor's race, the Miami
Herald<http://www.miamiherald.com/2010/11/03/1905805/scott-appears-headed-for-statehouse.html>
 reports.

"In a year when Republicans slaughtered Democrats in Cabinet and
congressional races, Scott's razor-thin margin reflected a level of distrust
among voters who were bombarded with mailers and television ads that
featured the record Medicare-fraud fine that his former hospital company
paid."

Sink is expected to formally concede later this morning.
