How are the races in KY and IN going to be reported this year? I know in presidential years that they both close their polls at 7, to accommodate the central time zone areas. Will they wait until 7 for the western part of their states, or will the eastern results come in at 6, while the central ones come in at 7?

Look at that Dallas metro area thumping for congressional Republicans. Nothing out from Cali or Houston yet.

Weird, I was just looking at some key counties comparing 2012 v 2016. He seems to be under performing and MT has a early Democratic counting bias.

With Tester's survival, Dem House pickups in CA, WA, UT, and AZ, Wacky Jacky's defeat of UTDH, Nevada's having a Dem trifecta (not to mention a unanimous hold on the row offices!) and a nearly unanimous congressional delegation, and the very likely possibility of a Senator Sinema, I'd HATE to be a Republican west of the Great Plains right now.


Cory Gardner is very afraid right now.


Creepin' Corey better resign now than face a Blanchein' in 2020.

It says something about the "urbanization" of the Dems that of the GOP seats remaining in Oklahoma, OK-1 (centred upon Tulsa) was the closest--OK-2, at one point Oklahoma's "token Dem" seat, is now 2nd best for GOP.

Oh, and while there's talk of AOC as the youngest elected female, there's also the matter of Shalala as oldest--and very nearly, the oldest of anyone, ever...

Ironically enough, Tulsa and OKC were Jimmy Carter's worst areas of the state in 1976, when he won a majority of counties in OK.

Rick Scott's lead is down to only 26k now in FL. It sounds like Nelson may have the votes in the end.

I want to see the Orange Clown's meltdown if Desantis or Scott lose.

The time factor was an important part of the 2000 presidential recount controversy.  There was a need to get it resolved quickly since Florida's electoral votes would be decisive.  But that doesn't exist here, since there's plenty of precedent for a Senate recount to drag on long past the start of the new Congress.

Al Franken was not seated until June 2009.

Broward county Dems might cost us 2018, just like Palm Beach Dems cost us 2000.

isn't that a 7 point margin?
I don't see ACN winning this.

Yea, but Duncan Hunter was up around 55-44 on election night. It would be good to make it semi close for 2020.
