2018 General Election Live Thread

[Right_in_Virginia]

Some key developments in this election that will definitely benefit Trump's 2020 election is that gone is the POS that was Gov of Ohio, replaced by hopefully someone that will overtly support Pres Trump, and it appears DeSantis will win in Florida, which will also impact the 2020 election.

Sadly, the idiots of PA voted for Wolf, a typical tax increasing Democommie.  Also, the Gov of Iowa will be a Republican, as well as the Gov of Arizona.   Walker loses in Wisconsin, but I am not surprised.

Overall, despite the projected lose in the House, I think the GOP emerges stronger in the Senate, and the stage is set for the president to eviscerate the Dems in the House.  Imagine, Trump will be verbally destroying the likes of Waters, and that slimeball Schiff on almost a daily basis.  It will be a hoot!

Even though Scott is ahead of Nelson by a very narrow margin  -- still waiting for them to call it.  Perhaps Nelson is calling for a recount?

Dem Leadership about to speak...

Thanks. I'm on it.

Breaking: Romney elected to something for first time in 20 years!!!!!!

Give him an office in the basement.

Right or wrong and I think it is wrong to think this way, I think what might be a turnoff to some voters is some people might perceive him indeed, as being "mean" or whatever other negative description like this one can come up with.  Obama appeared nice. I think this is a very superficial way to judge candidates but I think it is what a lot of voters perceive. Beto too, to some appeared like a nice guy.

Oh, they'll overreach and blow their own victory within 48 hours.

Pelosi speaking or better yet, is she speaking with her usual dazed and confused look?

[Suppressed]

the Gov of Iowa will be a Republican

Think she'll come back?  I know, there's only 54% reporting, and most of Des Moines is in, but there's quite a gap for low-pop areas to make up.

Fox

McSally race too close to call

I couldn't look at the slimy Perez and switched to HGTV.

I think that's -- sadly -- the way many people judge.

Unbelievable --- Debbie Wasserman Schultz --- wins!

[Emjay]

Great News. Romney won. How exciting.

Yeah, he's sort of a Republican.  I'm still mad at him for 2012.  He had Obama on the ropes after the first debate and then ... I dunno, he just disappeared into the mists.

Even in Nelson gets every single vote still to be counted he'll still be short by 30,000ish.  He's toast.

Testor is way ahead...missed the numbers 28% in

Testor 53.5

Reosendale 43.6

Bill Mitchell ‏Verified account @mitchellvii 3m3 minutes ago BREAKING: NBC News reports that Republican Pete Stauber will flip Minnesota's 8th congressional district House seat Woohoo!

West Virginia voted to end funding for abortions tonight. Ballot Issue 1 passed.

If Justice Thomas is serious about retiring, I'd go with Feb or Mar.

Testor is way ahead...missed the numbers

That was a long shot flip. MT is a goofy state with their elections.

I think this was a wonderful house cleaning of genuine filth.

The great thing is the moderates in both tribes are quitting or losing and the ones who remain recognize that the other party is pure evil...so any tactics to thwart them are justified.

I'm buying a white van...send me your MAGA decals @Frank Cannon

   I agree.

[Free Vulcan]

Oh no, Stabenow keeps her MI seat. James came up short. Very sad.

That sucks, though he did well for a first timer. He had that All-American quality about him and I wish he'd have gotten it.

Come now. There is no need to make fun of Nelson's strange facelift while is down and out.
