(42,748 posts)And who is "The Election Center"?
I'm not suggesting she isn't going to win, just wondering who this entity is and why everyone is excited about a projection they made three days ago?

(11,062 posts)They seem to be accurate, but theyre also making predictions very early with little evidence why.
Abolishinist
(1,304 posts)As you noticed, it's from some person on Twitter, and it was posted 3 days ago.
AND this same Twitter person also announced Hobbs winning in Arizona. I'm rather new around here, but shouldn't we be using more reliable sources?

(1,851 posts)Evidently posting false information on DU is not a valid cause for alerting. Bummer.

I appreciate accuracy

(6,914 posts)several races go up and down.
Like everyone, hope it holds. But there are newer reports that are less certain.

(180 posts)The volume of negative ads aired against her was absolutely nauseating. So glad the voters ignored the BS, and re-elected a real champion.

(164 posts)worried she wouldn't get pass her opponent, given it was so close. Will continue to listen in, when she's taking on Corporate Fat cats.

(1,851 posts)Note the twitter feed does *not* have the Blue verified icon. Fake or real? I have no idea. NPR has not called this race, nor has the NY Time.

(11,564 posts)Not only a great legislator with a massive wealth of knowledge, but she is also fall-off-your-chair funny. I saw her on Maher a few years ago, and she cracked up the entire panel (and Maher) more than once. One time, one of the panellists had his forehead on one forearm on the table, and pounding the table wish his free hand.
She is a PISTOL!

(20 posts)I believe Hobbs will eventually win, but this obscure Twitter account is just throwing guesses in the air.
No expert has called it at this point.

(26 posts)I was a little nervous for a minute. We need Katie Porter. I could see her as a future speaker of the house or senator. Shes a fighter and a great at educating people!
Marius25
(3,213 posts)While Katie is in the lead, the race hasn't been called yet.
Please don't rely on random Twitter accounts to post election results. Anybody can fake legitimacy there now.

(6,139 posts)CA races are flipping blue with more ballots counted. And that WA-3 race had only 2% chance of dem winning, but as more ballots come in, the history happens.

(870 posts)Cmon now, @EarlG! You deleted the thread asking where the the negative people are after the election, but you have kept this up for 24 hours! THIS IS FAKE NEWS from an unreliable source!
