Why haven't they called for Katko or Maloney? Hard to see how either loses at this point

I have no idea why?

lol Kern will drag this one out:

It seems counting votes at a glacial pace is something all California counties have bipartisan consensus on, regardless of which major party they favor.

[Torie]

You can plug in your own guesses in a spreadsheet for what allegedly remains (some 6,000 votes), in the three slots (Chenango, Oneida provisionals, and 500 odd challenged ballots with the county not identified), and end up with any result your heart desires by tweaking a tiny bit here and there if you are an obsessive mashochist. Still a flip a coin race in my view (Rosenblatt’s numbers for starters of what remains where might be off a bit), but if I had to bet the farm, I would guess Tenney loses.

very close indeed. Considering some DEMS have no opposition on titanium blue districts, this could have been an essential tie in the popular vote.

Yeah. Though there's still a decent amount of uncounted vote in NY, which should boost Democrats' House PV margin a bit.

The virus is spreading like wildfire through the halls of Congress. At this point, it would be a miracle if Pelosi, McConnell, and the other party leaders didn't get it.

In 1789, it took some time before there was a quorum in Congress so the electoral votes could be counted and Washington became president.

So was this endless wait what it was like for y'all in 2018 with those races not called for weeks? After election day I stopped following indy races back then, wasn't as interested.

@LordDrachir,
I think the reason people are more interested because the House Margin is so close. The more Seats Republicans get the tougher it gets for Pelosi to enact any meaningful Legislation like for example repealing the Tax Cuts which would be disastrous for the Economy.

Ah, less interest then, I get the reasoning, just wondering.

You have to have popular vote ex-California since they have D vs. D and R vs. R races.

Thank you. Point stands still it's not an apples to apples comparison when 100% of votes cast in some districts voters could only pick 1 party.

You could do house popular vote ex-all those intra-party 2-person race seats, with the understanding that if the party not on the ballot was there, they'd still get a minority of votes.

If you remove those races to my understanding Republicans are winning right now.

How many votes do you think Republicans are getting when they can't even make the general election lol. There's never an election where parties contest 100% of seats, that doesn't mean you just ignore the votes cast.

Uh around the votes Trump got in that district +- candidate quality of the incumbent and a few thousand dropoff?

[ChiefFireWaterMike]

Uh around the votes Trump got in that district +- candidate quality of the incumbent?

Or Primary percentage and just take that percent of the votes?

You can't do that because so many of the Republicans will leave their ballots blank in a D vs D. There's always a huge underscore if there's 15-25% Republicans. Still, this is a stupid thing to hand wrong over. We're not going to go around suggesting to add the Libertarian vote to the Dems in a R v L race, now are we?

It's all good man.

It's looking more and more likely that my House Prediction of 223 Democrats vs 212 Republicans will come true in the end barring some Major unforseen favorable Ballot Drops in CA this weekend.

Kevin McCarthy needs to hold the GOP Caucus together and vote down "every single Democratic non-bipartisan Bill" the next two years just to piss off Biden, Harris and Pelosi.
