he's pro choice when it comes to the law

Which, you know... makes him technically pro-choice who just chooses "no". As I like to explain to pro-life people in my life.

Catholic "personally pro-life but politically pro-choice" people are a big presence in my life.

This CNN coverage is more stressful than the needle

Its because John King plays with the big board too much and jumps around from county to county making the numbers jump radically all over the place.

John King is a bastard and the CNN big board is evil. MSNBC big board and Jacob Soboroff 4eva.

Steve Kornaci is the reigning Big Board Wizard of cable news. Everyone else is merely a pretender.

Yeah, thats my bad. I confused nerdy MSNBC white dudes and ruined the gag.

That’s hosed.

If it helps he's terrible and is constantly owned.

But yeah, its a big black mark on CNN, but probably not any worse than all the other Trump campaign people.

Even if the most ideal happened and the Democrats picked up 400 seats in the House in 2018 Trump would never acknowledge it. You know this. He deflected or outright ignored losing Alabama, Virginia, etc.

Yeah, its straight naivety at best and buying into Trump's lies at worst to think the stuff he says about this means anything. He was going back a year to Georgia to talk up the GOP's chances in this race. They've already made up their lies that this is a Democratic district and Saccone was the underdog. If Lamb wins they'll just claim its a failure because he was "expected" to win by more and nearly lost. Or Trump will claim he won because he embraced him and rejected Pelosi.

You can't win with bad faith engagers. Stop trying.

That election official on the phone with CNN was... not inspiring.

While I'm not a fan, earlier Smerconish was saying how he doesn't understand how a modern society can't count 250,000 votes in a few hours and I kind of wanted Wolf to put him on the phone with that guy.

This.

Saccone win: "YAY WE WON FAK U LIEBERAL TRASH"

Lamb win: "Um, actually, I think you'll find that *horrible distortion of Lamb's actual positions* so this is good for Trump. There will be no blue wave."

I'm gonna spend all day tomorrow explaining why if you're "personally pro-life but politically support a woman's right to choose" it makes you pro-choice, not anti-abortion.

Just say "Joe Biden" and be done with it.

Nah. I'm talking about the people who are still clinging to their "if Joe Biden had run instead of Hillary I might have voted for him over Trump because he's Catholic so I know he's anti-abortion" lies.

Conservative Catholics, man. Exhausting.

Watch Steve Kornacki run around like a mad man on MSNBC with a broken hand or something!

Lamb picked up 752 votes from Alleghany's absentee ballots. That was the big surge.

I was being jokey because he was pumping his fist and poo poo.

He said he wasn't giving up and he'd fight to the bitter end. And then left to Eminem singing "I'm Not Afraid".

So how many absentees are left?

Does this mean he won?

It means 100% of today's votes have been counted. There's still 1400 outstanding absentee ballots.

But Saccone needs to win more than 70% of them so, yeah, Lamb won barring some kind of shenanigans or massive screwups.

MSNBC now just has a split screen on a one handed Steve Kornacki spill water all over himself in silence. Its performance art.
