PA-18 Special Election - Lamb by a nose

[Sestak]

Ignoring the needle, we now have 17.9K to 13.9K Saccone lead in Westmoreland with 53% in. I don't exactly think that's enough...

[Hindsight was 2020]

So we aren't going to know the winner until tomorrow?

[Ye We Can]

The Republicans probably would be comfortably winning this had their convention not chosen Saccone.

And we would have won Colorado in Delaware if we hadn't nominated tea party crackpots, oh, and Nevada to. We would have won the popular vote if we had nominated Trump. But there seems to be an addiction my party to the farthest right extremist candidates.

That's the problem, I am part of the solution.

Pa-18 is better than the Superbowl, this is so suspenseful.

[Holmes]

Well Westmoreland is over 50% in, and if Lamb keeps Washington close, I don't think his lead in Alleghany can be overcome if it keeps expanding.

[Pennsylvania Deplorable]

Whoever decided not to record precinct results for Westmoreland needs to be fired.

Westmoreland County deserves to be wiped away now.

Complete and utter failure at election data.

Just until 90+%

[136or142]

They're reporting the results, just not by precinct.

[Beet]

It's good to be wanted.

[Crumpets]

Lamb now down for the first time on benchmarks - only by 0.08%, but still.

[jaichind]

Saccone now leading in Westmoreland 56-44 with 53% reporting. Fairly weak, IMO.

I agree. Lamb should have this at this point.

[fluffypanther19]

lol wtf

Uhhhhh.... DDHQ apparently has Westmoreland precinct info but different overall data

Come to the independents.  A pox on both their houses.

Goddammit Westmoreland

But again, Saccone's current margin there doesn't look like enough.

[Dr Oz Lost Party!]

OOoof. Pretty weak showing for Saccone in Westmoreland.

[Tintrlvr]

We're just going to have to assume what Westmoreland is reporting is a representative sample of the county as a whole. Which is hard to be sure about, but it is true that Westmoreland County is relatively uniform as far as these things go. Saccone's current 56-44 (R+12) lead in Westmoreland with 53% reporting is probably not enough to overcome Lamb's performance elsewhere, but it's close (his benchmark was R+13).

nah, we need a viable opposition party if the reps burn and crash; and badger can be part of that

Agree. It's nice to see blue avatars who are "open-minded" and can see the obvious repulsiveness of trump and some of the wacky Pubs.
