    I think almost all votes are counted and he still leads by like 60. Now that is a close election! Can't wait to hear from her why the election is fraudulent if she loses (and how it's valid, if she wins).

      @George-K , it looks like you may have accidentally revised my post with your Moderator power instead of quoting/replying to my post. Mind restoring my post to its original content? (I do not believe the original content has violated any rule here.)

        @Axtremus sorry about that. Hit the "edit" rather than "reply."

              Met with my guy Tuesday. We had the same discussion. The market does better with divided government. There is greater certainty that it won’t do anything too wild. The market hates uncertainty.

                  It looks like Boebert is going to hang on.

                  AZ - Masters needs to win 57/100 votes of the remaining ballots to win the seat. Evidently this is very possible as the remaining ballots are mainly ballots dropped off on Election Day and are expected to SKU Republican. I am hearing 2 different explanations for this. One is that these are votes from Election Day where the machines were malfunctioning so they were given mail in ballots. The second is that mail in ballots can be dropped off at polling places on Election Day and supposedly those votes skew R… Whatever, there’s a legit “path” for Masters to win. The numbers are even better for Lake, 51% of the outstanding ballots will make her Governor.

                      This seems like a straightforward but really weak attempt to deflect blame from Trump, presented as (failed) humor.

                              Best results when GOP controls at least one chamber of Congress.

                              Worst results when Dems control both.

                                  I wonder if Boebert’s husband needs to vote absentee. After all, he’s not allowed within 500ft of a school.

                                      AZ called for Kelly.

                                      Masto favored in NV

                                      Looks like the Dems keep the Senate.

                                      Only non-witches get due process.

                                        Nevada has been called for Masto.
                                        The Dems have reached the 50 seat threshold.
