I might as well be the one to do this as I live here.

Former congressman, count executive, mayor, etc Tom Suozzi vs Nassau county legislator and former IDF gunsmith Mazi Pilip. It's time.

Early vote looks very favorable to Suozzi. The storm is over and election day turnout looks a lot better going into the evening.

Results start coming in 9pm EST but Nassau county is notoriously slow.

Is it one of the bigger counties?

Pulling for Suouzzi. I heard a recent interview with him recently and he seems alright.

One of the smallest in the state by area and 90% of the district. Insane population density. We're basically a nicer New York City, but without the city part.

It'd be 6 and closing. Hopefully swing districts will see how disastrous republicans have been and flip more.

My question is, what was it about Santos that flipped the district red, when it had been blue for a decade(though it was red for 20 years prior if my googling is accurate). I mean, the second he took office it was lie and red flag after another, but HOW did we get to the point in a race where Democrats overachieved in a midterm this district goes red? And I know somebody who isn't TC is going to say "well, Trump voters are dumb as shit" because he is also a liar and a fraudster with red flags a mile long, but that doesn't answer the question I have.

Republicans ran a scare campaign in NY and Hochul is an atrocious incumbent with inseparable ties to the disgraced former Governor Cuomo. No enthusiasm from Ds, huge spending push from Rs since they thought maybe Zeldin could take it, general lack of effort and high complacency from Dems since NY is solidly blue, etc.

I think this mostly translated into Zeldin causing a downballot stream of good results for Rs. Even Schumer had the closest race in his Senate career (it still wasn't close, but a far cry from the absurd margins he started to obtain in prior races. At one point he won like 90% of NY's counties.)

Statewide candidate strength can pull people over. In a turn of the bizarre schisms seen in 2022, Tim Ryan (despite losing) pulled a couple of Dems over the line in Ohio as part of their overall overperformance (or flat out landsliding) in much of the Midwest.

Tom Souzzi (D) has a 63% to 37% lead with 9% of the votes in. Good start.

Oh wow this is taking a long time to update. Those saying this precinct is going to take a while to get their votes counted weren't kidding.

The more positions Democrats win, the more stuff they can get done. Plus, it denies the GOP the power they need to ruin innocent lives.

It's still early to call it but Suozzi's buffer is larger than expected.

Good. Dems inch closer to retaking the House and keep up that winning momentum. I'm looking forward to the November election.

Not particularly, this just eats into the Republican margins a little bit, meaning they cant afford as many defections. But Johnson is still Speaker, and theres little chance theyll be passing any bills at all.

I was a little worried about this election as it seems like New York was the rare state in recent midterms and special elections. Where the Dems weren't over performing the polls after the Roe decision and Republicans were doing quite well in some areas. Issues like Crime was costing the Dems.

Glad to see that trend got bucked tonight though, the last poll I saw had Souzzi up only 48-44, so this election win for Dems will likely outperform what the polls had.

Good. I hope it's like that across the country with voters finally wising the fuck up when it comes to Republicans and running the government. Those two things do not coexist with one another. Republicans only know how to break government and install Fascism.

Another huge win for Dems. More reason not to believe the polls. Abortion will never stop being a big issue, media. Get that through your heads. The same way it energized the GOP base for decades, it will do the same for Dems going forward.
