| [updated 10:35 p.m.] The Good News The one pro-science incumbent up for election this year, Janet Waugh, appears to be beating off a challenge by an ultra-conservative stealth candidate. Pro-science candidate Sally Cauble is leading Connie Morris. Pro-science Jana Shaver is also ahead of the anti-evolution candidate in her district. The Bad News Things are not looking good for pro-science Harry McDonald or Donna Viola. However, it all depends on where these votes are coming from and on which precincts are left to report.

so if these hold 2 of the 4 incumbent "conservative" BOE members will be out in the primary and the 1 "stealth challenged" moderate will survive.
that's enough to swing the board - and hopefully a Dem or 2 can knock off the 2 that appear to be making it through the primary (granted that's tough around these parts).
thanks for the updates :-)
(and yes, like you said - it's still early....)
