Election Night '84 - 8:30
8:30
Ladies and gentlemen we have a very important result to announce at this time: Pennsylvania is being projected for the Democrat, Richard Lamm. Dick Lamm wins the hotly-contested battleground of Pennsylvania. This is a huge result for the Governor from Colorado. His strategy has been one of targeting the industrial Midwest and the Southwest, states where immigration remains a more central issue than the nation at-large, and it seems to be paying off with the first big battleground state of the night going to Dick Lamm, giving him a significant early edge in the electoral total.
Anderson: 15
Buckley: 24
Lamm: 43
