Democrat Kyrsten Sinema is continuing to inch ahead in the slow-motion finish to Arizona’s U.S. Senate race.

On Saturday night, she remained a little more than a percentage point ahead of Republican Martha McSally. She gained 4,000 votes from a batch of ballots tallied in Maricopa County as well as a few thousand from elsewhere in the state.

It may take until Thursday to count all the votes. Arizona typically takes more than a week to tally its mail ballots. McSally is hoping for a late shift toward her in the remaining ballots. There are more than 250,000 outstanding. About 2.4 million votes were cast in the election.

3. Good news

Our successful democrats here in Orange County to continue to add votes to their totals. As more votes ate counted rohrabacher is quickly fading. Thirty years of idiocy soon to be ended.

4. This is definitely something

AZ needs to work on. For as long as I've lived in AZ and voted abroad (now), this issue has not been resolved.
I believe turn out was much higher this year so that could be why but

WTF AZ (and America).

We invented Facebook, Google, Amazon, Apple...why are we so far behind on voting????

5. Because, if you were a true 'merican, you'd understand there are people, unlike you and me, whose

votes shouldn't be counted. They don't believe in the same Jesus as you and me. They want socia-- (scratch that) communism and for us to pay for free stuff for them. Some of them even got Cadillacs while I drive in an AMERICAN MADE 2006, Ford 150. They get to buy beer and cigarettes with their food stamp card and they use a card like my Visa card so I don't even know who they are. And I gotta pay for that shit.

Well, I'm tired of it.

Ronnie Reagan tried to tell about all this but lib'rils used it to make fun a him.





Yes, its sarcasm.

6. Of course

Reagan and his welfare queens! I remember it well.

7. Of course? You mean you got a 150, too?

8. If you are pushing for electronic voting machines

I ask you to reconsider. Ivanka is coming out with a line of voting machines, I'm thinking that I'd rather have paper ballots. Who cares if it takes a month to count the votes as long as the election is done fairly?

14. No, as an IT person, no way.

I vote via email with AZ since I am abroad. They verified everything before sending me my ballot. Otherwise, snail mail or paper ballots - hand counted. All of them.

9. It would be nice to know

how many votes Sinema leads by now. I guess I will have to Google it.

13. Thanks!

It looks like Sinema is ahead by 30k now.

[Sunlei]

16. ahead by 30k! not that close a race anymore. Force all ballots to be counted makes a difference.

To bad some states like Florida cut off mail-ins on election day.

All states should use the postal date like IRS does.

10. My Google says, as of last night,

Sinema leads by 28,688 votes, or 49.5% to 48.2%. A pretty significant lead IMHO.

15. McSally is done!! yay. eom

17. Proud of my state, for once

18. The is no way McSally can win this

Every day the gap widens.
