A Hobbs win demolishes the media narrative that she was finished

I think Hobbs will hold onto her lead. This is super good news.

that the same day drop off ballots in 2018 favored Democrats, but the same day drop off ballots in 2020 favored Republicans, so it was up in the air who they would favor this year.

This first dump is extremely encouraging.

of of who, perxactly, would be dropping off ballots on election day.

Feeling MUCH better about it now. Prior to this latest 'dump' of some 108,000 votes, Hobbs was getting 52.4% of the votes in Maricopa County (which in the final stretch is the key to this election). If, as some surmised, the remaining ballots were heavily skewed to the R's, then a 55% edge by the skank would give her enough votes to win.

Hasn't happened, at least based on this latest 'dump'. Katie got 54.0% of this latest batch, which, if it holds, will give her the win!

Feeling MUCH better about her chances after this!
