The Bradley Effect didn't come into play, at least not for Bradley. Bradley didn't win undecided voters. He did get 0.1% more voters than the polls said he would get. In other words everybody that said they would vote for him did so, plus more. He lost his election by a slim margin due to undecideds, not likely voters.

That being said, you just have to wait to see the results.

Here's a pretty good article on the pollsters, political scientists, reporters about the voting issue:

"I think the quality pollsters have done a good, professional job this year. I don't think we'll get bitten. Even so, I'll be a little worried until it's all over. I'm not sure what kind of night I'll have on Tuesday. But I'm sure I'm going to have a nervous one on Monday."
