Colorado Election Results Mixed Bag for GOP, MHD.

The following is cross posted at Polstate where I blogged the election live.

President: Bush (R)
Senate: Salazar (D)
House: out of 7, 3 (D), 3 (R), one to close to call (3rd).

Major Setbacks for GOP in the State Senate, as of this writing GOP may lose control of the State Senate by one vote.

Also in the State House, the unthinkable, a major Democratic coup, Dems knock off at least five GOP seats, may take State House for first time in over a generation.
