Everyone seems to be making numeric predictions, so here we go:
Sebelius 57% (based on SUSA polling)
Morrison 54% (below SUSA's last poll, negative ad campaigns will make people think twice)
Moore 60% (Chuck who?)
Boyda 51% (This race will go down to the wire)
Weiss 53% (McDonald did well in the primary, add in Democratic votes and Weiss wins)
Wempe 52% (an experienced local politician with solid fundraising)
And anyone who thinks these numbers mean anything is crazy. Go vote and prove me wrong.

The predictions
Poll workers this morning said turnout was high. At 8:30, I was the 74th voter of the day.
In my email this morning, I have a note from everybody's favorite online retailer, informing me that:
This is part of an ongoing series of posts deconstructing SurveyUSA's state-by-state polls of Presidential approval, Senator approval, and Governor approval.
In a perfect metaphor for the situation, Kansas City woke on this election day to a dense fog. As the morning progressed, the fog lifted and people could see clearly again. Here's hoping that the two states are beginning to lift the political fog and see clearly again as well. I voted.
