I'm not convinced Lamb has this.  He's only 585 votes ahead with 97 percent of the vote in.

Saccone was a really horrible candidate, and Lamb was a really good one.  The race was not overly nationalized, and this area is more ancestrally Democratic than the 2016 results show.  
Stop the spin. It was held by a margin of 20%. Even if Saccone ekes out a victory it's a disastrous result for the GOP

Nate cohn expects a 541 Saccone net from the remaining precincts, puts this really close for Lamb.

That guy never predicts anything right

All things considered, I'm glad the Needle wasn't functional tonight.  It would have raised the anxiety level here to new levels.

This race won't be called tonight.

Remember that Democrats still control almost all local offices in Greene and Washington County.

Allegheny should report about midnight.  Greene & Washington won't report until tomorrow morning.  Not sure about Westmoreland.

It's obvious Lamb is going to win, even if it can't officially be called

For the record, the official Bush margin of victory in Florida in 2000 was 537 votes. What are we thinking, closer than that?


NM by raw votes I believe was even closer than FL that year

Yikes. The delusion is strong.

Why the delay in absentee counting? Are they planning on "misplacing" some ballots?

I drove through this district a couple times in September 2016 and there were Trump signs everywhere. This is a good sign for 2018/2020.

They're saying 100% but unclear if this includes absentees. Greene is counting absentees tomorrow and says they are 100% reporting.

All of what you said is true in terms of why it's a close race to begin with, but the absentee ballots likely add at least another 1,000 to Lamb's lead. Saccone ran as a Bush republican while Lamb ran as a populist. Can't say that these are shocking results.

755 votes. I don't think Rick can make up raw vote and absentee should boost Lamb around midnight

I don't see how Saccone can get 756 votes.
