Current Events > Senate might end up 48-52 at this rate

(+) Yeah! (+)

With Sinema up in AZ and Nelson getting a recount in FL, Dems could come out of this no worse than before they gained Jones from the Roy Moore fuckup.

1 seat net loss on a map that was horribly against them this cycle? That wouldn't be bad at all.

As it stands, will be anywhere from - 1 to - 3 net.

Based on projections and opinions from political experts, I'd rate the chances from best to worst as

-2
-1
-3

Remainder of AZ votes are from very urban areas and Sinema is already 9k up.

doesnt matter trump will get his supreme court pick soon after ruth retires, thats all he and the republicans want.

She can easily last two.

Healthwise, I think Trump's more likely to die first. Dude thinks exercise uses up your finite energy, eats a ton of fast food, and is already overweight. He's a walking heart attack waiting to happen.

Hubby's grandma fell down the stairs getting off a bus and broke her eye socket. That was almost ten years ago. She was run over by a retirement home resident's scooter while getting on the elevator. That was a year or two ago. She had pneumonia a few years ago and some other lung infection recently.

She will be 101 in one month.

Don't count out RBG just yet.

It really didn't, since Sinema is going to win by a fraction of a percent(IF she does win: Maricopa County has red pockets and any outstanding votes from those would benefit McSally). It was just a good year for Democrats(in terms of relative support, not Senate map) and the retiring Republican incumbent is hugely unpopular.

Trump is not as popular there as you'd expect. I mean he was constantly shitting on both of their senators.

Kyrsten Sinema was very popular before she ran this too. Also, she was one of the people who helped draft the ACA and healthcare is front and center as a campaign issue this time.

I find it sickening how comfortable people are with debating about her death. It's off-putting and insensitive and it seems no one else sees it that way. She's basically become an object/pawn to people. Its fucked
