7:38 PM PT (Jed Lewison): Paraphrasing Alex Castellanos, a former Romney adviser, on CNN: Tonight is scary for MItt Romney. Rick Santorum will be able to say tomorrow "You outspent me 3:1 in Tennessee, you outspent me 4:1 in Ohio, and look at what happened."

7:40 PM PT (Steve Singiser): With the presidential race in Ohio still very much in doubt (Santorum leads by just 6900 votes with 72 percent reporting), here is a quick downballot note in the Buckeye State. In the GOP Senate primary in Ohio, Josh Mandel will certainly win. But, given the some dude status of his opponents, and the hype that has accompanied his campaign, Mandel is kind of underwhelming. He is winning with 62 percent of the vote, at last check.

7:49 PM PT (Steve Singiser): With about half of the precincts now reporting, we could be on the cusp of an upset downballot in Ohio. In OH-02, Brad Wenstrup now leads incumbent "Mean" Jean Schmidt by a 48-44 margin. Still a lot of votes to tally, but this is another race to keep a close eye on.

7:55 PM PT (Steve Singiser): And we have our first confirmed result downballot of the night. In the Columbus-based OH-03 (the newly created Democratic vote sink) former Rep. Mary Jo Kilroy has conceded to former state legislator Joyce Beatty. With 80 percent of precincts in, Beatty held a 38-35 lead over Kilroy. Beatty is heavily favored over Republican businessman Chris Long in November.
