According the the NY board of elections' unofficial results page, it looks like I have ended the day... pretty much exactly where I started it, at least in terms of my personal representatives. Same governor, same Senator, same Congressperson (that fucker Reed, UGH), same state senator (...I voted for him rather than doing a blank or a write-in, because on due consideration I wanted to help make sure the challenger didn't win), same state assembly-person (who ran unopposed).

About the only difference is extremely local, where the main challenger knocked the old county sheriff out of office, which I think was richly deserved. We needed some turnover there.

Also, apparently my polling place may have had the highest turnout percentage in the county -- 86% as of 6pm, and more people came in between then and the poll closing at 9pm. That's ridiculously high for ANY election, let alone a midterm!

I heard it was ridiculously high among groups that usually DGAF about the mid-terms.
