Board 8 > Politics Containment Topic 205: A House Divided Senate Stand

(+) Yeah! (+)

Scott Walker is another one of those politicians who has always transparently sucked and yet manages to get reelected anyway. Really hope Evers pulls it out.

So is anyone going to start counting votes in Nevada or is that entire state just drunk?

If tester falls 538 skew was consistently wrong on the Senate Polls. Manchin was closer than expected. All close tossups to Dems are going R. Tester is basically the largest gap toss up. I think tester will win, but it doesn't look from the races so far.

and as I start posting about Evers vs Walker, Walker starts taking over >_>

A lot of the blue areas are 100% reported. But there is two counties south of Madison that are 0% and I dunno if they are usually blue or not.

Both went blue in 2014 during Walker's last election. The other 0% up north went to Walker though.

So did Nevada hold an election or what?

Taking their Las Vegas slogan a bit too literally
---

Barron county went 58% walker in last one with about 16k votes total there.

Iowa County 55% Dem with about 10k votes total.

Green county 52% Dem with 15k votes total.

Those are the three unfilled so far. So nothing big.

Dems pick up Maine's governship. Don't know anything about the Dem candidate, but they have to be better than Paul LePage, quite possibly the worst governor in America.

He didn't poison an entire city so he's still second worst.

Nate on what's up with Nevada:

If youre wondering why there are no results in from Nevada, the reason is that the state isnt willing to report numbers when people are still standing in line to vote.

---

There is a lot of red areas with votes outstanding in Wisconsin. Manitowoc county (hey making amurder shoutout) and cumet and various others have votes outstanding. Only like 2 blue areas have partial results so far. Then of course those 3 unreported areas.
---

Apparently Jon Tester's race got tight?
---

Gross, indicted Reps Chris Collins and Duncan Hunter have been reelected.

r/politics (a leftist subreddit) openly celebrated her death.

plenty of conservatives in that same thread making jokes about Democrats usually waiting until after they're dead to vote. no need to insinuate disgusting behaviors in that thread entirely on dems by calling the whole subreddit leftist

i'm glad she was able to vote before passing.

Tester might honestly lose. A lot of the city areas are reported. I dunno how many of the ruraler areas he would carry but there is a lot with no results yet.
---

Nevada resident here. Polls in Henderson (or at least the ability to get in line) closed at 7. God damn if people are STILL in line. I voted and got out by 8.
---

NYT still has Tester with an 84% chance based on the vote that's in.
---

Could definitely change, but as of now all of CA's statewide elections + ballot measures are going the way I voted besides the daylight saving's time one...!

Well. Americans once again show they are fucking stupid. Have to live with this fucking cancer for two years. Will take it back again in two years at least, and then make America amazing. Literally cant have anything good happen with libs in charge of anything

Thats sad to hear, but at least Dems in the House will be fighting for you to still have affordable health care during your struggle

The opposite, really. The Dems have House Committee investigation powers, so itd be pointless for him to try and fire Sessions and Mueller now.

trump is going to lose in 2020 solely because of floridian felons. florida man is this country's last best hope

Well at least I don't have to be made at independents in Georgia.

Such a close race, God.

Just fuck Kemp so much.
---

Tester lead down to a .5% lead.
---

There were literally only like 4 documented cases of voter fraud in the 2016 election out of like 130 million votes cast (and, iirc, they were all people trying to vote for Trump twice)

If he fires Sessions but the replacement doesnt fire Mueller, I say we throw Trump that bone

Are you looking at CNN?

It is wrong (again!). They are reporting Missoula at 100% reporting but it is actually 30%. Cascade is only 43.5%. Lewis and Clark is at 60%. Tester could absolutely lose, but those numbers are important because a lot of the 0% counties only have a couple thousand voters in them, total.
---

So, while this means nothing will get done in congress for the next 2 years, this also means nothing will get done.

So I'll take that as a positive.

True that. Looking forward to Reds bitching about this and having absolute NO sense of irony.

We get it back in two years....

Luckily that will coincide with the moment Ive been waiting for since 2014....

The absolute fucking elimination of your cancerous party by district lines. And best yet, we have a SC that will eliminate any unconstitutional gerrymandering that you try (AGAIN)
