I don't think it's possible for Estes to win by 9%....there isn't enough left outside of Sedgwick and Sedgwick looks to be about even at best for Estes.

It's up to 5 right now

Well,  if that happens then the hype was kinda overblown, but the GOP still under-performed.

Yeah, massively.

Not notably. Massively.

And not with an Akin-like candidate either.

The Dem-Cheerleaders in this thread are forgetting how terrible a Candidate Estes is. He literally was sleepwalking through the entire campaign. He knew he had it in the bag and didn't even need to try. It looks like he was right too.  

You also have to remember that this is a special election. A lot of people probably don't even know that there is an election. According to the SOS numbers right now, 62 people voted in Pawnee County?

62.

That county was 1,904 for Trump 579 for Clinton.

And 62 people voted today.

Pawnee County is split between congressional districts.

He is the KS Secretary of State. Hardly an empty suit.

Looks like I was right on the money with a sub-10 win for Estes.

Still, this was a massive underperformance by the GOP. Estes should have been stomping all over this district by over a 20 point margin.

Harvey County flipped to Estes with 30/38 reporting.  The only remaining question seems to be will Sedgwick County flip once all of the election day vote is recorded?  It significantly tightened with the last batch.

This is the closest margin that an election for Congress or for President has been since 1996 in this district. Five months after the Republicans swept the general elections.

How could anyone possibly complain about that? Like seriously, why do you think the road to a majority passes through Wichita?

No he isn't. He's the State Treasurer.

6.5 point lead now with 74% in. Probably expands to about 9 points or so.

Only a small portion of Pawnee County is in KS-4.

And the GOP historically has demonstrated a much higher propensity of voting in special elections relative to their actual numbers.

Yeah. A single digit margin in a district that was R+30 less than 6 months ago is totally normal!

Um, yes, a +27 Trump seat going by single digits to an underfunded political neophyte kinda ain't spin.
