Wasserman called it for Kelly last night, but tonight's Maricopa County drop was devastating for Republicans and races are starting to get called. Kari Lake and Abe Hamadeh are Republican's last hope in statewide races; both are running behind, but there's a lot of uncertainty and a lot left to count.

There's no way there's enough dumbasses in Arizona to elect Kari Lake at this point right?

I'm not taking anything for granted after Boebert came from behind and somehow won her race.

Those calls were not made by reliable sources or analysts, and Wasserman directly rebuked the idea it could be called at the time. As things stand, there's no path for Finchem/Masters with the outstanding vote left.

...Really? Last I checked, she got a 800 point lead, and it was only getting larger, so I wrote it off.

Have to do a recount + cures for the CO-3 election.

Normally it doesn't matter but the race is so narrow it might actually change things.

Who calls it definitely matters. The AP takes calling elections super seriously. Likewise someone like Wasserman stakes his whole reputation on calling elections. The people who said Boebert lost her race were nobodies.

People in that other Boebert thread were making fun of the NYT for still predicting a Boebert win, but they are just a bit better at election calling that Twitter randos.

Ultimately even if Lake/Hamadeh win, I do think it's important the voting base rejected nutjobs like Finchem. As much as I hate McCain, his legacy of "moderate" Republicanism definitely held influence in creating a barrier against shitty, awful candidates that are basically just one hair removed from being neo-Nazis
