WASHINGTON November 2, 2010 (AP)

(AP)Republican Rand Paul, a tea party favorite, has been elected to the Senate from Kentucky in his first run for office. The son of libertarian congressman Ron Paul defeated Democrat Jack Conway.

Republicans have captured the first of what they hope will be several Senate seats that were held by Democrats with the victory of Dan Coats in Indiana. The veteran lawmaker returns to Washington in the seat that was held by retiring Democrat Evan Bayh.

South Carolina Republican Jim DeMint, as expected, has won re-election to the Senate, defeating Democrat Alvin Greene.

Greene shocked and sometimes embarrassed his party by winning the Senate primary as a complete unknown. The unemployed military veteran is still facing obscenity charges involving a teenage college student.

In Vermont, Democrat Patrick Leahy was re-elected to a seventh term.

Jack CONWAY (DEM) 52.31% 58,345
111,547


stop listening to what others are saying and watch the results

AP and Fox both reported
Rand Paul as winner

WHOOOHOOO and this is just the beginning!

Rand PAUL (REP) 47.29% 95,969
Jack CONWAY (DEM) 52.71% 106,988
202,957

just because fox, cnn, ap or anyone else declares a winner does not necessarily so. be careful, folks.
these numbers are showing that even the networks and cable news can be wrong,. and these numbers are taken directly from the KY state election website

The numbers are not agreeing with Ap and Fox news call on the election

Still up in the air

Fox just re affirmed their call for Rand Paul
