Now the count decides who controls Congress.

NEW JERSEY: POLLS OPEN UNTIL 8 P.M. — ECONOMY DRIVES THE VOTE
New Jersey voted all day, and the economy led voters to the polls. Polls are open from 6 a.m. to 8 p.m., with a U.S. Senate race and all 12 House seats on the ballot, including the closely watched 7th District race between Republican Rep. Tom Kean Jr. and Democrat Rebecca Bennett, according to NorthJersey.com. Mail ballots must be postmarked by 8 p.m. Close contests may not be settled tonight, with valid mail ballots able to arrive for up to six days.
PUBLIC THOUGHT
One camp says the noise wore them out — voters leaving the polls talked of being tired of negative commercials and wanting leaders who put the town and the country first, with health care and prices driving their choices. The other camp reads the mood as a verdict, pointing to the early CNN Voter Poll's broad dissatisfaction and to polls that have missed Republican turnout before. The split is the story: anger brought people out, and the count will say what it meant. Views paraphrased from public posts; no quotes fabricated.
