Trump just tweeted about this race for the third time. This time promoting that Balderson will protect your Social Security and Medicare, which deviates from the typical Trump endorsement template.

Sounds like a weird way to promote a Republican.

Whether O'Connor wins or not, the fact it's a photo-finish in a district that should be an easy win for the republicans spells big trouble for them.

This is looking like it'll be very close. I think O'Connor could very well pull it off, but I'm going to say Balderson wins 49-48 as my final prediction, just so not to get my hopes up too much.

I think the 65% target is including e-day, and his numbers in Delaware will inevitably come down as election-day votes come in.

Stupid early voting. Always getting my hope up even if my brain knows it doesn't mean anything. I still have flashbacks to Hillary leading in Florida and North Carolina in 2016.

Get ready, it's about to tighten.



I honestly didn't expect Balderson to outperform Trump.

Trump got 38% overall, Baldy is at 42% with EDay only. Not sure of combined.

Oh sorry, apparently, I can't read. Thanks for the correction!

Nate Cohn is estimating a total turnout of 220K based on results so far.
Ouch.

Low turnout. Seems like good news for O Connor.
Wouldn't that mean the EV is less than 20% of the total vote?

That's not good news for O'Connor.

Cohn said it would be around 16%, so yeah, not great news.
