If your life depended on you being correct, who do you predict wins the Arizona Governors race and who do you believe wins the Nevada Senate race?
Im talking after all votes in, all challenges, and all recounts.
I keep looking at every reliable source I can find in both races and I just dont know what to think.
I want the Dems to win SOOO much that it colors any impartial judgement I might have.

(9,317 posts)We win Arizona Senate and Governor but not Nevada. Im pretty confident of Arizona but Nevada is very close.

(53,743 posts)I live in Vegas and Cortez-Masto and Sisolak are steadily closing the gaps on Laxalt and Lombardi, and in AZ Kelly has already secured a win and Hobbs is slightly widening her lead on Lake.

(24,328 posts)The two biggest counties, both majority Dem have quite a few votes to count. While there are other counties left, the red counties percentages of votes counted are higher and there are fewer voters

(21,264 posts)Az Gov, nope, Nev, Senate, nope. Az Gov has a chance if same day votes fall for Dems.
They changed the remaining votes left in Nevada from 70k to 50k which screwed it for us. No explanation why the number was so far off.

(4,298 posts)I did my own math and came up with this: C-M needs to get 61% of all the rest of the outstanding votes and she wins safely. She needs 59.8% to eek it out.

(2,809 posts)Predictions fail us, as did miserably in 2016.
Head end says: With half a million ballots still to tally, Kari Lake still has over 25,000 votes to catch up to Hobbs at 82 percent count. Last reported tally had a significant jump for our side.
Head prediction: We win.
Heart prediction: We also win, and here's why:
I've had the opportunity to drive about the state of Azricrazymethheadnona, Nozridrynowwetterna, Cactizona, and even some Arizona now for over a month, starting a new travel gig here next week.
I haven't observed the numbers of Trump and general MAGA stickers on vehicles that were apparent some years back.
But when I've seen them, they've absolutely decimated their vehicle's value, covered with a dozen racist, crazy, gun-image emblazoned, "die in hell democrats", many with four letter expletives then "Biden".
Almost. Unexceptionally.
Yeah. Crazy, every last RW-bent vehicle I've seen in well over a month and lots of travel. No longer is a lone "Trump" sticker seen. They've worn out their welcome mat. They've worn everyone down with fanaticism and tacked on all the wildest Q-nut crap to the extent that I'd say a good portion of the working and middle age class, if not enveloped in enclaves of Republican and/or psuedo-religious shit, include significant numbers of maybe previous Republicans sick to death of the ilk.
Add the Dobbs motivated, subtract the "abortion is murder" element, anti-Dobbs probably edges out the Christofascists.
That doesn't, however, include the number of veritable retired shut-ins and snowbirds who aren't exposed to practically any of that.
