I gave up on the Dems learning anything when they chose to double down on centrist bullshit after the 2016 election. They're committed.

Y'all currently have 11 precincts remaining and she needs 16,000 votes. 4 of those precincts are in Puma county somewhere. It's possible but lol :fork:

The map in 2020 is gonna be tough but not as godawful as this one. Still, I can only see 4 seats max that could turn for the Dems as of right now, and you also have to factor in that Doug Jones is absolutely going to lose his seat, so that would be a potential net gain of 3 seats. Unless we can get Beto to run again in Texas. And loving actually get latinos to turn out.

that's one thing i've learned in this election: the latino vote is absolutely godawful at turnout -- I'm assuming bc of voter suppression but holy christ

That is actually promising. They've reported Pima as 100% since like 11:00 last night but votes keep popping in from there in the results, so I guess it's not actually done. Sinema was winning by 12 points there last time I looked so more from there is better. Normally the question for late Pima counted votes is "are these the military base votes" because those are normally solid red but McSally is pretty unpopular on the base, too. Kinda of "funny" how the people who have dealt with her representing them for the past 4 years so strongly came out against her . . . . .

In the first decades after World War II, white voters without a college education consistently voted more Democratic than white voters holding a four-year college degree or more. Thats flipped in recent years, with Democrats at both the congressional and presidential level consistently winning a higher share of white voters with a college degree than those without one.

That inversion has intensified under Donald Trump. In both the 2010 and 2014 midterm elections under Obama, House Democrats won only about one-third of non-college whites and about two-fifths of whites with a college degree. In 2010, Democrats ran six points better among college whites than non-college whites; in 2014, the gap was seven points. But in 2016, with Trump on the ballot, the gap roughly doubled to 13 percentage points, as House Republicans improved further with non-college whites and lost ground among college-educated whites.

On Tuesday, the gap between the two groups expanded further. Democrats carried only 37 percent of white voters without a college education (compared with 61 percent for Republicans). But Democrats won a 53 percent majority of college-educated white voters (compared with 45 percent for Republicans). Tuesdays Democratic performance among white voters without a college degree improved just slightly from their weak showings in the 2010 and 2014 midterms, when they carried only about one-third of them each time. But their showing with college-educated whites on Tuesday represented a big improvement from those two previous midterms, when they carried about two-fifths of them in each election, according to exit polls. This week, Democrats not only carried 59 percent of college-educated white women, an unprecedented number, but reached 47 percent among college-educated white men; they hadnt reached even 40 percent among those men nationally in any House election since 2008.

How many decades after WWII? The fracturing of the new deal coalition and the development of the southern strategy probably wrenched off the usual suspects, and as fewer and fewer college graduates made it through school without realizing minorities are normal people with equal social value as whites that gap presumably widened. At least that's my guess.

Carter was the last person to have clear majority of non-college whites, Clinton was the last democrat to have won them period

I dunno, for 2016 I got my call that they were throwing my vote out for bad signature a week after election. This is well after they claimed 100% reporting.

They're blaming people who dropped off mail in ballots instead of mailing them in but I mailed mine in on time in 2016.

C'mon, money.

I saw the 1030 statement that they were still counting. Did they mention when they'd have another update?

I'm pretty happy with how thoroughly NM voters kicked in the teeth of the Reps this time around. Pearce's former seat going blue would be the cherry on top.

Maines 2nd District has Poliquin (R) ~600 votes ahead of Golden (D) both at 46% of the vote with two independents at 6% and 2% with a total of 21k votes between them.

Marine has ranked choice voting for the first time this year so we'll see which way those 21k votes fall.
