Trump tweeting about this will definitely help the Democrats.

Why, the district voted for him by like 27 points.
It shows that even the top Republican is rattled by a lost seat in Deep Red Kansas.

That just makes these results even more insane.

Enten said Thompson needs to win Sedgewick by around 9 to have a chance at pulling this off.

What's it at now?

NYT showing that he's winning the county by 11%

This could've been less of a nail-biter if the DNC actually funded money for Thompson's campaign.

Am I missing something or is everyone missing the fact that Sedgewick appears to be largely out and Thompson is romping there? Even given the Democratic League of early voters, I'm not sure why there's so much pessimism among Democrats right now.

We're having some occasional flashbacks of election night.

Is Thompson really similar to Manchin?

Lol you gotta be kidding me... this was not a shining opportunity. Let's not act like this is fertile territory for Democrats. The fact that this is even somewhat close is reflective of Trump but mostly Brownback.

It was surprisingly competitive and the DNC pretty much ignored the race. This seat is needed for Democrats.

It would've been nice to have but it's not needed. There are dozens upon dozens of districts that are more likely to flip than this one. Plus, many of you are highly overrating how much of a difference a few dollars from the DCCC would've made.

The GOP won Ted Kennedys Senate Seat in 2010 with funding and resources. Saying that funding from the DNC would've been overrated is a poor claim.

It's so gut wrenching to see all these bug Democrats have a say on this race when they cared little about actually wanting to win it.
