Which favors Sinema, so her lead should only increase from here on, which is why the Republicans were trying to stop the election.

52. Uncounted votes left in Maricopa, Pima and a red county.

Sinema was Maricopa by almost 1% and Pima by something like 4-6%. She lost the red county, I think Pina, but it has far fewer votes that the other two, even fewer uncounted than Pima alone.

53. Vote counting isn't over.

My guess is when it is, Sinema will be ahead beyond the recount limit. She has votes in two of Arizona's largest counties yet to be counted, one favored her by 1%, the other by around 5%.

Plus, all year, late mailins have heavily favored the democrat, regardless of the county.

I want her to win, but there are still 350k votes that need to counted in Maricopa. What we have today is the first batch of those Eday deliverys/hand-ins. Please update your post so folks won't get the wrong message. This will be going on until next week.

Maricopa's next release will be tomorrow at 8pm est.

47. Maricopa went for Flake & McCain for Senate and McCain, Romney, and Trump.

It may be changing demographically, but this is the first election in 10 years that a Democrat is leading in the county. Calling it a Dem stronghold is a bit premature and a stretch. Sinema's ahead now, which portends well for her since Dems haven't won this county in 10 years, but there is still a Republican registration advantage and they were also ahead a bit on EVs. Right now we need to have our fingers crossed that the remaining EVs have the same margin, which would mean that Sinema is winning crossovers and indies, and not that there is some sort of last minute McSally surge.

All year, late mailins have favored the democrat. Look like the late votes have broken massively for Sinema all day, my guess is that does not change the rest of the way.

61. I think things look good for Sinema, but Dems have a reason to be bullish.

She won Eday by 1%, that's a combination of Election day votes and mail in ballots. We don't have a breakdown showing who won w/ early votes and who won with just election day votes.

The 350k ballots being counted now are not only late mail-ins (150k), but also election day hand-ins. For Team Sinema and everyone watching this race, the worry comes with the 200k or so that were handed in on Election day. The worry is that these may be slightly more republican since they are essentially election day votes being mail votes handed in at polling places.

Looks like the late votes are breaking heavily for Sinema, as I have been saying they would for the last day.

Even with 300,000 in Maricopa county, I doubt McSally catches her. BTW, on E-Day, Sinema won Maricopa County by around 1%. Even if late votes broke like Election Day, Sinema wins. My guess, the remaining late votes break even more heavily for Sinema, because democrats are notorious for waiting until the last minute to mailin their completed ballots.

65. She's leading in Maricopa, has been leading in Maricopa, and there's no reason to believe she'll

necessarily lose that lead. Trump only won the county by 3.5%. Have you seen some of the trends of districts, counties, and states throughout the special elections and midterms? Jurisdictions that were Republican +22 have gone Dem. This one was R +3. NYT actually had a graphic showing the shift left across the country--not just in seats Dems picked up, but even in those that we lost close (again, tons of R +10, 15, 20, 25 that end up going just R +1, 2, and 3).

66. There are 350k votes left in Maricopa.

150k are late mail-ins. Good for Sinema.
200k are election day hand-ins. Could be good for McSally or Sinema. We really don't know. A 1% Eday+Mail in lead does not tell us who was winning in the EV (typically Dems) or who was winning on the Eday(typically Reps) nor the margins. That's the issue. Things feel good for Sinema, but AZDems have a reason to be bullish. No one is calling this race, outside of DU, because it really depends on the margins in a county with a Republican registration advantage. Sinema is doing phenomenal and having one of the best Dem showings in years. This question is going to be whether it is enough to counter the structural disadvantages. I think it will be, but I still think the race might be close when all the ballots are counted.

70. I'm sure it'll be close, too, Sascha. I just wanted to point out that GOP party ID advantage...

and a history of winning elections in affluent white municipalities and suburbs (like those surrounding Phoenix) hasn't been of much use to the GOP this cycle or the last. Trump only won Maricopa by 3.5%. With what we've seen in the special elections and the midterms, that should be of little comfort to the GOP. The shift leftward has be massive. We're talking swings of 10, 15, and 20+%. Here lead is only growing as more votes from MC come in.

I'm not an expert on Arizona politics, so forgive me if I seem strident. But I think we have cause for optimism. I felt that way the moment I heard the GOP was planning lawsuits to block or impede vote counts. They know this isn't stacking up well for them.

24. Please change your thread title. It is not accurate.

There are still ~500,000 votes to be counted. CNN has it at 81%, 100% is NOT CORRECT. I think Sinema will win but this is far from over.

Thank you for clearing up my error. Did they stop counting for the day?

33. MSNBC said Sinema is now in the lead with

81% of the vote in. Watch out for GOP dirty tricks! 👺

36. There are...I changed my headline.

I based it on the information on the website of the SOS of Arizona which I clearly misunderstood.

37. Yes, thanks for noting this.

If I recall properly, it's the 'late' votes, that is, live/voting day votes not yet reflected, and will take a while longer.

35. Great news! If it holds that will make up for one of the seats we lost. Nelson is a possibility, too

55. I think she has it, but I wouldn't start celebrating unless tomorrow's numbers improve further

But the Republicans are suing to disqualify votes, and McSally noticeably didn't declare victory on Tuesday. I think they know how this is going to end up.

60. Yes, but folks MUST GET...

If Kyrsten pulls out her race, she is a Centrist Democrat in a 50/50 State called Arizona. Remember this when at times she has to vote against the norm on certain issues to ensure her RE-ELECTION.

Thanks, in advance.

63. I saw this coming!! Hopefully we have similar success in Florida!

Sinema is going to pull this out in the end. Maybe Scott and Gillum can, too.

67. OMG, if we could pick up Sinema, Nelson & Abrams, how sweet that will be!

of course, this is wishful thinking, but it is possible. Sinema is looking really good and the most solid bet for great blue news, but Nelson has cut the lead in half. Brian Kemp is no longer Sec of State and there's lots of work remaining still due to the courts orders about notifying and giving folks x # of days to verify their signatures. That one looks to be tied up for awhile.

I was happy picking up 31 seats (so far) in the House, but to add these 3 important wins would be such a delectable icing for that cake. It would put Dems in such a better position for the census, reapportionment, and 2020.
