From NBC's Mark Murray
EMS projects Michael Bloomberg to win re-election as New York City mayor.

Meanwhile, according to the AP, "Boston Mayor Thomas Menino has won an unprecedented fifth consecutive four-year term. Menino held off a challenge from City Council President Michael Flaherty. Menino already has been in office for 16 1/2 years, longer than any in the city's history."

*** UPDATE *** EMS its call in NYC Mayor race for Bloomberg. As of now, Bloomberg is ahead just 50%-47%. This race isn't over, folks....

*** UPDATE 2 *** Well, now it's over... NBC News projects that Bloomberg wins NYC Mayor.

It seems that this is no longer the case. Otherwise, where is the checkmark next to Bloomberg's name. Did you project and then see the race tighten up?
