Oh man. We are talking about precincts and absentee ballot percentages. I haven’t had a race this close for so long since the ‘08 Franken race.

It matters for narrative, because this was a big Trump district.

I'm baffled by people asking why a dead heat in a Trump +20 matters. Like how broke brained do you have to be to not see how that matters? Democrats now have the green light to run hard everywhere. It doesn't matter to special cynical boys who are smarter than the rest, because they know that nothing matters.

It probably heralds a blue wave regardless, but a +20 swing ending in a narrow loss feels a lot worse than a +20 swing ending in a narrow win. And that feeds back into voter enthusiasm in subsequent races. So the difference does matter a bit.

Oh for sure the outcome matters. I'm referring to the nihilists bitching about how this seat doesn't matter because it won't exist in 8 months, or about how Democrats are moving goalposts by pointing out how many other districts are less +R than this district. A win would be great but a nail biter in R+20 is a good thing. Unless you're a depressive who does nothing but complain about how unpure and bad Democrats are.

Funny thing is this pisses people off on both ways, I know some of my comrades in the Soc Fem committee of the Pittsburgh DSA who loving hate people like that. I agree with them mainly because I don't think abortion is really that relevant in my interpretations of Catholicism and is more of a recent thing. That and pro-life Catholics are some of the most obnoxious people I know and I only associate myself with them because I like the social events and parties that my family friends and church pull off.

It's pretty obnoxious to tell someone what they should personally believe in. It's enough to say that it should be legal.

This feels like mad good turnout for a special election, btw. 225,000 votes on 710,000 population.

And they all voted for the TRUMP candidate!
