MARGARET WARNER: It's too early for results — polls have closed completely in only one state, Kentucky — but even the earliest partial returns will be pored over for what they tell us about the larger picture.For a guide on what to look for in the hours ahead, we're joined by Chris Cillizza from WashingtonPost.com. He's monitoring election developments in the Post's newsroom.So, Chris, set the stage for us for the night ahead. When and from which states are we going to start getting early returns in races that have the potential to flip control of one or both houses? CHRIS CILLIZZA, The Washington Post: Right. Well, the good news for early-to-bedders like myself is that I actually think we're going to get information relatively early. A lot of these races are clumped on the East Coast.You've got Kentucky; you've got Indiana. Polls have already closed in places in both of those states, in the eastern part of those states. You've got New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania. All those places have very competitive House races.And I think we're going to have a sense — we may not have Democrats over 15 seats. They may not pick up the majority. But I think we might see them close. And if we see them close, I think it's going to be a real leading indicator that what happens sort of west of the Mississippi is going to follow along, then Democrats indeed are going to take back the House.
