Scott Brown Leads in Massachusetts Senate Returns

Folks on Twitter are going wild! Check Matt Margolis!

And here's this from CNN, "GOP's Brown Leads in Early Massachusetts Senate Returns":

Republican Scott Brown grabbed a solid lead with almost a third of results counted in Tuesday's special election to fill the U.S. Senate seat controlled by the Kennedy family since 1953.

Brown, a Massachusetts state senator, had 52 percent of the vote to 47 percent for state Attorney General Martha Coakley, the Democratic contender, with 30 percent of precincts reporting in results from the National Election Pool, a consortium of media organizations including CNN. Independent candidate Joseph Kennedy, a libertarian who is not related to the Kennedy political family of Massachusetts, had 1 percent.

At stake was President Obama's domestic agenda, including health care reform.

If Brown upsets Coakley, Republicans will strip Democrats of the 60-seat Senate supermajority needed to overcome GOP filibusters against future Senate action on a broad range of White House priorities.

Wolf Blitzer just report Brown up 53-46 as this post goes live @6:03PST!!
