Walking through Hyde Park this evening, I saw a Jacob Turk lawn sign. If Cleaver can't sweep Hyde Park, he may very well be in danger. Remember, Turk came within 9 points of winning in 2010 and in 2014 there isn't a Senate race in Missouri to encourage African American turnout. Cleaver could very much be endangered. Discuss.

His district was made significantly safer in redistricting. He'll be fine.

Someone threw a Molotov cocktail into one of his offices; I hope he stays safe.

Cleaver will be fine.  Last night was his closest election yet, and he still managed to survive by over 6 points.  I'm not too bullish about dem prospects in Missouri these days, but he and Clay will be fine.

I noticed this last night:

With 67% in, Van Hollen has upped his lead to 54-46. Unlike his neighbor Delaney, it looks like he will pull this one out.

EDIT: It's already been called, but Emanuel Cleaver has been held to a 51-45 margin by Jacob Turk -- I recall KCDem made a satirical thread about Cleaver being endangered.
