| Yay laying Lee Zeldin lost! |
| I have been focused on the Senate and not the house. Is the house really still up for grabs? |
| Are there 80,000 more votes to be had in WI or is Barnes done? |
I'm still seeing only 70% of Milwaukee County in on NY Times... |
The Democrats were probably going to lose the House since they started up by only 5, and they are still probably going to lose the House because the President’s party loses 28 seats on average in his first midterm, but it won’t be anywhere near that historical average or what was forecasted. |
Well, the City of Milwaukee is about to dump about 60,000 absentee/early ballots that should largely be for Evers and Barnes. |
Yes, still lots not in from Milwaukee. It's going to be really close. |
The bigger problem is that there is one county, Grant County, that has not reported. Pop about 52K and it leans Republican. If that county increases the margin for Johnson (likely), then it will probably put the win out of recount and catching range for Barnes. |

Yes, the House is up for grabs (crazy given gerrymandering R's have done in FL and elsewhere).
We will not know the final outcome for weeks. We will definitely not know tonight. And yet I still can't make myself go to bed. |
| I’m waiting for the PA senate race to be called. I have some unfinished business on another thread. |
| Not sure why they aren't calling PA. Fetterman is ahead and all the red counties are in. Everything outstanding is around Philly and Pittsburgh and will go for Fetterman. He'll end up winning by 150k votes. |
| Boebert may actually lose!!!! Dems will lose the House for sure, although not by much, but this may be a great consolation prize 😀 |
Grant is reported at 94.1% on the MSNBC website. |
Grant County voted 14k votes for Trump and 11k for Biden in 2020. I think the still-to-be-counted Milwaukee votes will have a bigger impact. Also only 59% of Brown County (Green Bay) is in. Hard to say on that one- if it's City of Green Bay precincts still needing to be counted, that's good for Dems. If it's outlying areas...those are more Republican. Only 76% of Rock County in- +10 Democratic county but again also plenty of red areas in the county so hard to say without knowing where the outstanding ballots are coming from 66% of Portage County in- slightly blue county with a UW campus (Steven's Point) but again...lots of outlying rural areas that might go red. Hard to say. 4% of Pepin County in- very red but only like 5k votes All in all...not overly optimistic about Barnes- 3 points is a LOT to overcome...but it's not over. |
3 points can be overcome overnight easily. Please. |
