Democrat electoral bleeding continues.

NY-9, Turner (R) over Weprin (D), 54-46%.
NV-2, Amodei (R) over Marshall (D), 58-37%

I'm not sure which result is more encouraging. NY-9 is Anthony Weiner and Chuck Schumer's old district, with a Cook PVI of D+5 (Obama +11), against a guy with no political experience. NV-2 is traditionally republican with a Cook PVI of R+5, but 21 points is an absolute blowout.
