Bishop probably survives on the partisan advantage. He was weak in the suburbs, but not weak enough.

Well, FWIW, Don Lemon is now saying this should be an easy win for the Republicans.....so this may be one of those times when the Dem loses and becomes a win for the media.

Unless the NCBOE website is glitchy, only about a quarter of the vote cast has been counted.

Looks like a massive amount of early voting.

Lemon looks like he's going to have to excuse himself --- he looks physically ill.

McCready is the Dems' golden boy ---the prototype for 2020... military, a family man and campaigned for over a year.

IMHO, the pubs winning these 2 NC races is no more significant on the upcoming 2020 election, than if they had lost tonight.

Trump brings it into a whole nutter dimension next year.

Dan Bishop was down 17 points 3 weeks ago. He then asked me for help, we changed his strategy together, and he ran a great race. Big Rally last night. Now it looks like he is going to win. @CNN & @MSNBC are moving their big studio equipment and talent out. Stay tuned!

I felt better after last night's rally @mystery-ak . It was filled to capacity with an overflow crowd watching outside. The crowd was pumped .... with a capital "P". The VP introduced POTUS ... who gave a barnburner speech. Hell, even Bishop was on fire last night.

I'm so happy it worked out for Bishop ... and the President.

You're just pissed off because Bolton's been neutralized.

When it comes to elections, when you put your a$$, prestige and reputation on the line for one race ... then you get to make that judgment @Bigun Until then, I personally would prefer you'd just say "thank you".

Bishop just gave an acceptance speech where he spent half of it thanking the President and the other half bashing democrats. He gets it.
