Without making me do any work is O'Connor a good kind of Democrat who likes good and popular things or the other kind of Democrat who would rather lose than support good and popular things?

El-Sayed behind by 13% with 20% reporting, not looking good guys. I'd feel more hopeful if I could find a district where El-Sayed had a strong lead and could build on it as more of it reported but even Wayne County is neck-to-neck for him and Whitmer.

Something Awful, so easy even a spaceman can do it!


The two main things I want tonight is:
1) OConnor winning to hopefully do some good but also to spite Trump.

2) Kobach losing because he is a horrible human being.

because it's wasteful? and when you look at historical turnouts averages you go "okay, print that much plus five percent more just in case"

I mean it's the natural end point of a two party system

Yeah, I've thought about this before and kind of put it in the same place as why starter houses get nabbed up so quickly by real estate companies and why it's increasingly difficult for a regular person to make money off the stock market reliably.

It's all consultants and analysts and algorithms pitted against each other, so we have this kind of stalemate where the only real loser is anyone who wants to do things the honest and old-fashioned way, or lacks the means to play the game.

1300+ votes and the 7% remaining in Franklin county are gonna have to be enough to fend off the half of Delaware county that still has to report.

And the e-votes I guess?

e: and still have two rural counties reporting

from what the Smart People Who Analyze the Data are saying about the remaining votes, Balderson's probly gonna squeak this by less than a % point, the worst gop showing in this district for like 25+ years.

so, y'know, get ready for the multiple trump tweets tomorrow proclaiming a glorious crushing victory, wow, many are saying a red wave is inevitable, it was all thanks to my endorsement.
