Am i misthinking, or is this race the most concerning for Republicans. Doug Jones winning in Alabama was crazy, but this is a coal district and the numbers have been trending Lamb and the momentum isnt slowing. If this works out, and it looks like it will, a blue dog democrat revival in the rust belt could be underway.
Hard to say. While there are strong coal ties in the district, the district is more white collar than what most people think. If Lamb wins it will almost certainly be because he torched Saccone in the white collar well-educated inner suburbs. The blue collar coal regions will likely swing as well and will have some impact, but this could also be viewed as more evidence of the absolute collapse of the GOP with well educated suburbanites.
