Election Night Results: 8 for 11 (So Far)

We're three hours into the August 24th primaries and results are being finalized — of those races, Huckabee is a perfect 7 for 7:

Florida:

Marco Rubio wins GOP nomination for US Senator (84 percent, field of 3).
Daniel Webster wins in the Florida 8th district (40 percent, field of 5).
Dennis Ross wins in the Florida 12th district (69 percent).
Rich Nugent wins in the Florida 5th district (62 percent).
David Rivera wins in the Florida 25th district (63 percent).
Bill McCollum loses GOP nomination for Florida Governor (43 percent).
Karen Diebel loses in the Florida 24th district (29 percent, field of 5).

Oklahoma:

James Lankford wins in the Oklahoma 5th district (65 percent).
John Doak wins for Oklahoma Insurance Commissioner (70 percent).

Arizona:

Trent Franks wins in the Arizona 4th district (80 percent).

Alaska:

Joe Miller leads in for the GOP nomination for US Senator (51 percent).

The tough races are McColllum (FL Governor) and Diebel (FL 24th), where McCollum trails by 3.2 percent (just under 40,000 votes) with 77 percent of precincts reporting and Diebel trails by 0.9 percent (just over 600 votes) with 94.5 percent of precincts reporting.

Diebel's chances are slipping away, but the race has not been called. McCollum still has an outside chance to catch up from Miami-Dade County (where he leads by 22,000 votes with 48 percent reporting) — but so far it is not looking good.

Update (10:44 PM): Almost ready to call it for Scott over McCollum. Miami-Dade is not pushing McCollum through and Scott's lead has grown with 90 percent of precincts reporting. Frustrating loss for a great candidate and for Governor Huckabee.

Update (10:55 PM): The race has been called for Scott.

Update (10:57 PM): From a 2012 perspective, I don't think this hurts Huckabee too much. Yes, he campaigned over the weekend for McCollum. But McCollum was also endorsed by Mitt Romney and Newt Gingrich (Sarah Palin did not endorse either candidate, unless I'm mistaken) — so really, no 2012 hopeful gained or lost.

Update (11:00 PM): Heading to bed because of an early school morning tomorrow. Hoping Diebel (in Florida) and Miller (in Alaska) pull off miracles. More tomorrow.

Update (9:35 AM): Updated to include Franks win, Diebel loss, and Miller lead.
