It sounds weird to put any weight into this but MAGA Twitter spearheaded by that Scott idiot Limo hates, is trying to get "cons are being turned away at the polls because of redistricting"/voter fraud conspiracy going. So even they seem to be bracing for a loss

Which will be annoying if Saccone wins, smart on their part.

I saw that. They keep sharing the exact same screenshot of a text message: "They said I couldn't vote because I've been redistricted." No name or time, and claim it's happening all over the district.


Btw, it's not just Limo that hates that guy. It's also me and a few other Atlasians. The buffoons over at PredictIt make fun of him all the time.

Yeah I'm getting to a point where I'll be really shocked if Lamb loses

We should still remain cautiously optimistic. Saccone could still win, but turnout exceeding expectations makes that very hard to believe. Let's also remember Monmouth has an A+ rating from 538 and they said that Conor should win by a comfortable margin if turnout is high.

Yes, but don't forget that little thing called Margin of Error.  Even in the most favorable model for Lamb, the race was within MoE.

I think the most obvious sign is that Democratic voters, especially those in Clinton areas, are very energized and ready to vote, many Trump Democrats are still looking for a change agent in our system and not somebody from the political caste, and candidates do matter, this was painfully obvious here and Alabama.

I think it's mostly people who were in surrounding communities especially in rural areas and the new PA-14.

This is Washington county. Anyone have total registered voters and past election results for this precinct?



Clinton lost by 30 and Obama lost by 22. Benchmark model says Lamb will need to only lose by 9 to win (in a universal swing ofc)

Ok found some info. Was a 62-32 Trump district in 2016 with 676 votes. 400 is pretty damn good so far! Pretty sure this precinct is gonna be Saccone country, as he represents it in the state house.

I want Lamb to win, but it would be really funny to see how much crow you will have to eat after the past week if Saccone wins. Smiley

Here’s a random question

Has a party that holds national power ever won in a “big upset” special election?

Like, let’s say in a Massachusetts election with trump as prez, a republican knocked off a Democrat for a debate or house race.

Has something like that ever happened?

Mark Critz in 2010 might fit the bill as well, though it wasn't a massive upset that he won.

Also, somebody posted this early, but it's super handy so I'll recommend it again: Benchmarks for Lamb per precinct:

Wow! This was one of the most democratic precincts in Wash co. in 2018! 48-48 between Trump and Hillary.

Yeah these things have happened in the past, the tend to usually be because of scandal with the 'expected' party, pushing the defending party to victory.
