Shepard Smith says turnout is high and exit polls show a deep division. I'm guessing that means it may be too close to call.
You know what I'll be watching. Share your thoughts and observations from watching Fox or other coverage in our comments section.
8:09 PM The way the Foxies are talking, it's looking good for Walker.
8:30 O'Reilly just got through lecturing the Brits that maybe they should rethink the monarchy or at least the Jubilee.
8:32 Fox News ignoring reports of robocalls telling voters who signed recall petition they don't need to vote. (H/T Aria)
8:57 Wisconsin polls close in three minutes.
9:00 Bret Baier saying "it's too early to say" if Walker will win.
9:02 Baier also saying it's soon to call Lt. Gov. race.
9:02 Lt. Gov. Rebecca Kleefisch now Hannity's guest.
9:18 Tweet from The Fix:
94% of Republicans votes for Walker; 92% of Democrats voted for Barrett; Walker took won Indies 50%-49% in exits
9:26 Hannity said he expects the race to be called within minutes. Then he said excitedly, this is a very consequential election. So I'm guessing he's seeing exit polling showing Walker winning. Otherwise, he'd be less upbeat about results.
9:32 Hannity said he hopes to make a call within the hour.
9:42 Greta just announced that Sarah Palin will be on with her tonight. Ugh.
9:48 Hannity just said "all indications are Walker's going to pull this out."
10:48 Bobby Jindal talking about how courageous and principled Scott Walker is.
9:51 NBC just projected Walker the winner. Fox will surely do the same soon.
9:56 Fox saying Walker will surive recall.
9:57 Kleefisch survives, too.
10:00 Hugh Hewitt just said, "This is a Barack Obama signed, sealed, delivered special disaster."
10:02 Here's Ms. "I can see Russia" adding her special insights to the outcome. Her incomprehensible suggestion for healing the divide mentions "union thugs" and Walker standing his ground.
10:06 Palin: Obama's goose is cooked.
10:13 I really need to do a separate post to do Palin's "analysis" justice.
10:23 Now to analyze whether WI results are a trend... RNC chair Reince Priebus.
10:24 Will Greta have any Democrats on tonight?
10:32 A Democrat, finally, on Greta, right before another Republican, of course.
10:49 Bobby Jindal gushing over principled and courageous Scott Walker is.
10:54 Greta just called the results "an absolute blow out."
11:04 Joe Trippi coming up after Karl Rove on Bret Baier's special report. Only question is how much Trippi will fold and roll over.
11:14 Trippi not bad.
11:14 Barrett conceding.
11:16 Maryland Gov. Martin O'Malley coming up. He's always a good guest on Fox.
11:27 Here comes Walker.
11:30 Instead of graciousness and humility, Walker is shoving his religiosity down our throats.
11:34 Walker pats himself on the back instead of reaching out: Voters really do want leaders who stand up and make the tough decisions.
11:36 Walker says it's time to move forward and put the election behind Wisconsin. Now he says he's committed to "working together" for "more freedom" and "more prosperity" for all people. Translation: I'll try to be a little smarter about the politics the next time I ram through my right-wing agenda.
11:43 You'd think Walker just won an election rather than stopped a recall effort.
11:49 Fox round table pundit (forget which one) just acknowledged that Walker made a similar "uniting" speech the night he got elected. I rest my case.
11:57 And I rest my blogging for the evening. Good night, all!
