Mississippi?

Mississippi?

Could be Hood vs. McDaniel for Cochran's seat.

That's actually what happened, but Wicker, not Cochran, was primaried by McDaniel.

I think McDaniel should run indy, split the GOP vote, and give Hood (who is already popular with Mississippi blacks and whites) the seat.

Also, I think the "Independent Conservative" should be UUP instead.

Fair enough. I figured Cochran's seat might be logical since he's very likely to resign next year.

You're right about McMullin and the UUP, I was actually thinking about that earlier. But I think I'm going to keep him as Independent Conservative as it would be interesting if some disgruntled Republicans joined him, like Collins and Murkowski. That wouldn't be possible if it was UUP. I'll consider it though.

Sort of like what happened with Roy Moore, McDaniel primaries Wicker (keep in mind McDaniel almost did the same against Cochran in '14, and now he has the backing of people like Bannon) and due to his positions and the anti-GOP sentiment, he falls to Jim Hood.

Utah Senate Election, 2018
Evan McMullin, Independent/United Utah Party 40.2%
Orrin Hatch, Republican 39.7%
Jenny Wilson, Democratic 19.8%
Others 0.3%

Following Evan McMullin's upset win against Orrin Hatch, who refused to retire, there has been much speculation about which party he would caucus with. Additionally, there has been rumors that moderate Republicans like Susan Collins of Maine and Lisa Murkowski of Alaska were interested in forming an 'Independent Conservative' party with McMullin as leader. It is reported that Republican party leaders are heavily lobbying McMullin to caucus with them, while the Democratic party has been hands-off thus far.

Looks great

[President of the great nation of 🏳️‍⚧️]

Are any of the flipped seats in the House in NC?

[libertpaulian]

Are any of the flipped seats in the House in NC?

Also, how many seats did the Dems manage to flip in the NC legislature?

[OBD]

Are any of the flipped seats in the House in NC?

Sadly, no. The GOP gerrymandered NC so badly that the Dems don't really have a chance to gain anything. NC-13 was close though.

How badly did Trashy Ted lose?
