1. Is this a district that usually goes GOP?

[renegade000]

3. Yes, as of 2016, but it was close then

58-42% (R - D), so definitely quite doable with the major swings we've been seeing!

[Eliot Rosewater]

6. Great, but I am a half empty kind of guy and when I see that many still

supporting their own destruction, it amazes me.

GOP is now openly admitting they will destroy SS, Medicare and so on and these people, none of whom are rich or less than 1% are, are voting FOR them


FUCK!

[KelleyKramer]

22. 58-42 is NOT close, a 16 point win is a massive landslide

That is a solid, deep red GOP district, or ...it WAS

This is a huge swing in the Dems favor

[bearsfootball516]

4. Yep. Dem entered with a 1-3 point lead in polls. Gonna be crazy close.

2. Is the Pope? Does a bear? n/t

[Wounded Bear]

15. Yes...

the Pope shits in the woods, and bears wear funny hats.

[renegade000]

5. 100% reporting now

52-45% in favor of the Dem candidate

[Eliot Rosewater]

8. Great.

1241 votes for 3rd party, stupid FUCKERS

[bluestarone]

18. great we won but how could this even be close as ?it was

except for ultra STUPIDITY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[bearsfootball516]

9. Was a 1-3 point favorite

And won by 8. The Blue Wave is alive and well

[renegade000]

11. Did the polls include the Libertarian candidate?

Because looks like she got about 3%

[bearsfootball516]

12. I don't think they did

Considering it's traditionally a red district, it's likely those are mostly republican voters who didn't want to vote Democrat, but wanted to voice their displeasure with the current climate. Likely helped Good.

[renegade000]

14. Yup, still a decent victory nonetheless! n/t
