Predictions for West Virginia 3rd?

Ojeda.

Thanks.  I meant a prediction for the near three way Republican primary tie.

[Matty]

Tonight was a good night for both parties, imo.

Also- check out mitch mcconnell twitter. LOL

I bet McConnell got a real snort posting that tweet.

Ojeda's numbers are pretty weak for a guy who has received so much hype as a super-candidate against a bunch of no names. He probably gets around 40% in the general election

[Co-Chair Bagel23]

Why the heck did we not field anyone against Walt Jones?! I get that it is safe R, but it is 2018, we are not supposed to be that lazy!

Evan Jenkins probably would win the primary if there was a top 2 runoff.

Top two would actually mean a very narrow GOP shutout and a D vs. D runoff between Manchin and Swearengin in the GE.

[TarHeelDem]

Yeah, NC-09 should probably be considered Lean (or at least Tilt) D now. The state party should use this opportunity to expand the map a bit. Lots of energy on the Left across NC right now.

This district was already one of the Democrats top hopes in North Carolina.

My point is they won't have to spend as much in NC-09 now that Harris is the GOP nominee. Those extra resources can be used in other districts.

Shirley Love is not a no name.  He is an also an elected state senator.

Oh, I see.  Yes, true.

I meant a primary runoff.

Basically working the same way as it does in states like Alabama and Texas.

52% in a 4 way race is bad?

NYT called it for Morrisey.

Shirley Love isn't a random. He's a former state senator, broadcaster, and current state rep.

[Co-Chair Bagel23]

WE SHOULD have run someone against Walt Jones, ridiculous...

Mitch took a break from snorting coke off a hooker’s ass to post that tweet

I don't know for certain, but he's pretty popular with a lot of Democrats.  His father was the previous Representative for this district (as a Democrat) and he's something of a maverick Republican who has been facing primary challengers from establishment Republicans for several cycles now.  It wouldn't surprise me if no local Democrat wanted to run because they didn't want to take any votes from him for the primary.

I know. Miller's been surging as of late, so I'll say her.

[YE]

Because he is uber safe due to the fact he’s an RINO?

Did trump's late tweet against blankendouche actually do some damage, or were the gop internals likely BS and blankendouche was never leading or close.

[Attorney General & PPT Dwarven Dragon]

I withdraw my earlier projection that Gearheart would win the WV-3 primary. This puts the entire race back to Too Early/Close to call status. Also waiting for more on this:

OH - District 11
Republican Primary

Percent   Candidate   Votes   Winner
50.5%   Beverly Goldstein   4,339   
49.5%   Gregory Dunham   4,253   
19.4% of precincts reporting (115/592)
8,592 total votes

Ojeda got more votes than Blankenship got statewide!

Probably both.
