Election Night Results Open Thread: Maine, WA State, Kalamazoo & Beyond

Bilerico Nov 03 09

Tonight is a big night for LGBT rights and issues- Marriage Equality in Maine, Relationship Recognition in Washington State, and a Human Rights Ordinance in Kalamazoo. Add that to the openly gay candidates (Anise Parker in Houston) and races that effect our movement (the New Jersey Governor's Race), and you have a busy night for all things LGBT.

We're going to use this open thread to update election results, talk about the races, follow everything that matters to you. Jump in the comments, add the races you're watching, and give your commentary throughout the evening!

We'll be updating this post all night as results trickle in!

Maine Question 1 Results: 0% Reporting NO (yay!): Yes (boo!):

Washington State Referendum 71 Results: 0% Reporting Yes (yay!): No (boo!):

Kalamazoo Ordinance 1856 Results: 0% Reporting Yes (yay!): No (boo!):

More races and results as they come in after the jump!
