Holy skitshi 12th District of Ohio to close to call!!! A solid RED district!

[EvilCat Breath]

The Russians did it.

Republicans eked out a win but spent millions to do it. That is easy when you do it one at a time. Now they will all come at once. Republicans are not going to be able to spend that much money per seat with at least 68 seats that have less of a partisan advantage than Ohio 12. Republicans are facing tough fights for 3 Republican held sears in Washington state. They will have to deal with the fallout from Chris Collins' arrest as well.

In the special election yesterday, Dems lost out bigtime on what was said was going to be a seat that would change to blue.

No can do.

Dems hang tough in safe GOP districts during special elections, but victories are elusive

It's been Republican since 1983. It's been Democrat ONCE since 1939. That's how Republican it is.

In 2016 Tiberi won by 250,000 to 112,000. More than double. Before that nearly triple, closest was 2008 when it was less than 50,000 votes between the two candidates on the back of Obama doing really well.

They can pump the money is during special elections, but when the whole country's voting, they're going to find it a little tougher.

Keep grasping

Hillary by a landslide! Jesus, it’s to far out. Any body that concerns themselves with those this point has way to much time in their hands and way to much hatred for the other side.

Still lost.

Where is that blue wave?

OK goose-stepper, this race was never supposed to be this close. The fact the Trump and other GOP heavy hitters came to the 12th District to campaign for Balderson, plus the historical GOP winning margins, no one expected an only .9% margin.
Facts are against you, Gomer.

Moron...

It is a special election.

It is in August.

The same two are running again for November.

Trump was supposed to lose these races for these guys.....his guy won.

You guys can pretend this was a win for you.....it wasn't.

Similar to a special election in Western Pa. where Dem Conor Lamb beat Rick Saccone in a district that Trump won by 19+%. Trump came to town to support Saccone. Now that gerrymandering has ended in Pa. Conor Lamb has to run against Keith Rothfus who`s been in Congress since 2012. Lamb leads the polling 51%-39%. Perhaps Rothfus will ask for Trump`s help too.
Poll: Conor Lamb leads Keith Rothfus big, Dem enthusiasm high in key Pa. congressional race

That is total bullshit. I know the area and many people there where Connor Lamb won. It is a BLUE BLUE BLUE district and they voted HEAVY HILLARY in 2016! They ALWAYS vote blue. I don't know where you get your data but they are full of it!

What you don`t know is that the districts have changed since the Pa, Supreme Court undid the gerrymandered districts. Saccone was the incumbent Republican (that means red) and Rothfus is the incumbent (current office holder) and yes, that`s red. I submit that you don`t know shit. I live in Allegheny county btw.

I know all there is to know about the matter, forwards, backwards, inside out and if you live in Allegheny Country, that explains everything. You're a died in the wool democrat and you of all people should know that Connor Lamb was an exception, Saccone was a LOUSY candidate that never stood a chance, especially because Lamb ran on the republican platform values. You libs want to impress me? Quit telling us how poorly republicans are doing, how much of a lead they carried when Trump ran and actually WIN A FEW ELECTIONS.

A loss is a loss.

Losing a football game 24-23 is the same as being shut out.

Hasn't been called yet. But I'm sure you're premature on other things to.

It will take weeks to count those provisional ballots.

In an election you should have won handily in one of the worst gerrymandered districts in the state, and $5 million in outside money spent on your guys behalf.

Just checking in to hear about the Democrat's first blue wave win. Have you guys won an election yet? Nope? OK. Keep me apprised. I'm here for ya.

HOPE SPRINGS ETERNAL. Several weeks ought to be PLENTY of time for you guys to scrape up enough fake votes to challenge the totals! #AlGoresHangingChad

No wonder the Dims cant turn their success rate around when they depict every loss as a 'win'....if you squint and look at it from the right angle....maybe.

Dems lost out big time? Big time? The Republicans outspent the Democrats by how much in a district that has been solidly red since when? And Trump had to show up? Exactly what makes up "big time"?

Butthurt much?

Hillary by a landslide! Jesus, it’s to far out. Any body that concerns themselves with those this point has way to much time in their hands and way to much hatred for the other side.

I disagree. When you see a trend developing then it is relevant. The trends have been very clear since the elections in 2016. Republicans are in trouble in districts that have a suburban component to them. Also Democrats have been more motivated to turn out in special elections.

That may be what you want. Voters are fickle and Pontification this far out is truly just an exercise to make one feel good.

When the whole country is voting, and Trump is rallying all his supporters to keep the democrats from impeaching him? You mean like that?

What you forget is that independents especially in the suburbs very reluctantly supported Trump. They were voting against Clinton not for Trump. Many of these voters want to vote Democrat to force the parties to work together.

Hardly especially when the trends have been ongoing for over a year.

Except the republicans keep winning. The trends haven’t been ongoing. The trends in the polls may have, but the end result hasnt supported your stance.

 

[skews13]

But but but NOT BY THAT MUCH!!!!!!!!!

I guess to liberals, at this point, not getting completely clobbered is a victory.

Update: Your lead is now down to 1552 votes, and Franklin county says it will drop your guys total by 195 votes in a counting mistake, which may lead to a recount.

Ain't over yet.
