I'm glad the political ads are over for a while. Hoo boy are these next two years going to get ugly.

theres still votes to go through (no philly provisionals in yet, for example), but this is the bulk of them. i found this interesting.

5.51 -- 22 fetterman/shapiro
5.68 -- 18 casey/wolf

4.58 -- 22 oz/kkk
4.17 -- 18 barletta/whoever the farg

2.17 -- 22 3rd party
1.59 -- 18 3rd party

so as of now, you have around 800k more votes in 22 than 18. all candidates *lost* votes from 18. the republicans lost a lot more via the extra 600k 3rd party (i.e. protest votes). over 2/3rds of that vote went to the R's. candidate quality matters a lot. im not sure how much of the protest vote was maga goons not thinking say oz was loyal enough or centrist republicans dissatisfied with maga and unable to pull the trigger on a democrat. but its certainly more them than us, a very good sign. 
Zero hour, Michael. It's the end of the line. I'm the firstborn. I'm sick of playing second fiddle. I'm always third in line for everything. I'm tired of finishing fourth. Being the fifth wheel. There are six things I'm mad about, and I'm taking over.

As if Dykstra couldn't lower the bar any further 😂

perhaps you could explain sd's reasons for "disliking" it as well since you seem to be so in tune with other peoples minds

both NV and AZ are tough to gauge because of the unpredictability of the remaining vote

AZ for example has pre election day vote out and additional election day vote (all mail). the pre ED is less than the ED. pre ED has historically skewed democrat. ED skewed democrat in 18, republican in 20. sooooo who knows there.

nevada CCM needs these clark county vote dumps to continue the current trend. if even 1 or 2 of these dumps is off, she might not be able to catch up. dumps. big dumps.

QuoteHere in Philadelphia proper, just over four out of five voters cast their ballot for John Fetterman. The only places where Oz "beat" Fetterman in Philadelphia (and this won't exactly be a shocker): the far, far Northeast, and the 26th Ward, aka the part of deep South Philly where people worship Christopher Columbus and Frank Rizzo. Division 26-02 of South Philly: you deserve a free crudite delivery from Dr. Oz, because you came out with a whopping 72 percent of your vote for the good doctor.
