State Legislature Special Election Megathread v2

[GeorgiaModerate]

GOPmentum. MAGA!

There is no evidence to suggest that. Samirah was a flawed candidate and he still routed. Plus using a incumbents performance as a basis for a open seat isnt a good indicator. A better one is when the seat was last open and he performed 6 points better than then

Lol does every Virginia Dem have a scandal?

Virginia's new state slogan: Scandal in the Wind.

Suppose they held an election and nobody came.

Holy f#ck, that's horrid.

You're making judgments based on ONE precinct? #PeakAtlas

Rangel (R) is going to surge with the ED vote in Texas, watch that race for a possible upset.

Uh, Lopez is currently winning the e-day vote 67-33 when Rangel needs to win 64% of election day votes to win.

And that's with 38% of election day precincts in.

I see Limo hasn't learned any lessons from last year.

[GeorgiaModerate]

After the result in PA-LD-114 it's clear that Democrats have regained their special election edge.

Don't draw too many conclusions from one district.  In some places like this they'll do as well or better than last year, in others they won't.

Wow Dem candidate ran even ahead of Obama. What a hack can't beleive it. It's a safe D seat at the state leg level.

Thanks - glad you seemed to enjoy my maps! Sounds like your planning on making better ones yourself?

No, man, I'm not in the mapmaking business. My point was pretty obvious one. If you do public work, post it online, I hate to break it down to you but you could be criticized. It's a shock, I know. However I really didn't even criticize your maps or talked about how hard you do your job. I only pointed out that you were comparing apples to oranges, special election results vs presidential election in the same seat. Better comparison for sure is with the state leg election from the same year in which Trump won. Random observer on twitter and even here notes big swing to Dems but it would be a slightly different story if we compare 2016 state leg with this special. Your passive agressive tone that followed a normal comment is really something. Reminds me of 2016 election twitter in early vote reporting.. Remember, bias isn't what you report rather what you don't.

Dude, you are a run-of-the-mill right-wing troll and you are criticizing a national treasure like Miles.
Take your toys and go home before this becomes too embarrassing.

I can criticize whoever I want.

Also, I'm far from a right-winger.

Also, if you can write here, it's a pretty low bar for forum tbh.

PS Nobody here is arguing about substance of what I wrote, just protecting a guy from a bubble just like on twitter.

You really don't have any idea of the amount and quality of the work Miles has consistently created and published, do you?
