Still getting up at 5:00 to go run, Muthaf**kers.

[Travis of the Cosmos]

NYT has stabenow 91% likelihood of winning and Slotkin at 73%. All proposals pass.

House very likely dem, and the senate race in Texas is   

I don’t even know if I want Beto to win. If he wins I don’t think he’ll run in 2020 from what he’s said. If he loses- maybe.

if this continues, would be a decent night for Dems. Kinda surprised the TX race is this close. Figured Cruz would win by 5-6 pts.

[Travis of the Cosmos]

Wait msnbc says Cruz is going to win. That’s fine

[Robert J Sakimano]

Daughter is at the Motor City Casino for the Whitmer party with friends. Texted me to say they're playing a bad version of "Wagon Wheel".

[Robert J Sakimano]

long shot for Beto anyway.

Hell man, even as close as he is.... I really really don’t think it’s the last we’ve heard from him. Gillum in Florida too if he ends up losing

Beto would've probably won 42 of 50 states. Texas just ain't one of them.

[Robert J Sakimano]

Also, some "in the know" types are feeling more comfortable about the Dems taking the House.

Take it for what it's worth.

[Travis of the Cosmos]

MSNBC “officially” called the house for democrats. Take that for what it’s worth.... but they don’t make those calls willy nilly because they look stupid as hell if they make them wrong

[Rocinante]

Some blue wave.

[Robert J Sakimano]

Some blue wave.

trying to get some momentum.

truth.

[InTenSity]

Hard to over come racism and game baby killing.

[Travis of the Cosmos]

Some blue wave.

Which thread did I post last night “hey can’t wait until we say it’s not really a wave when it’s commonly accepted that 2010 was a “republican wave” when they took the house and not the senate. Can’t wait to talk about this on Wednesday.”

Anyway, if they do end up winning the house then that’s just fine. They’re also winning a shit ton of governor seats (Kansas? Nice.) I’m not sure what else you could have expected. Florida I guess. Talk to intensity about that.

[Robert J Sakimano]

I think when all is said and done, we'll all have something to be pissed off about and something to be happy about - and that isn't necessarily a bad thing.

yep - Florida is probably the biggest disappointment of the night for Dems.

[WhiteBoyHatcher]

Beto seems pretty awesome.

Also when I was in Spanish class in HS that was my name one year. Next year I changed to Esteban bc I thought it was hilarious.

So far, only.... and even that I don’t think is settled yet

[WhiteBoyHatcher]

Also how can Goose play whatever happens tonight as the Democrats are hypocrites? Inquiring expiring minds want to know.

It's settled. Cubans need to break from Republicans, but fear works better than logic. This state should split up. I can't believe there aren't enough Puerto Rican votes to over come the white rural cracker vote.

I was "Armando" in my Spanish class, circa 1985-86.

Man I just don’t know about that proposal though. 1.4 million new voters is a shit ton of voters.

[Robert J Sakimano]

Some quality sources saying Dems could pick up 38-40 House seats.

Probably talk about how it’s not really a wave despite what he would have said in 2010 and 1994

[Travis of the Cosmos]

More local results- Stevens is going to beat Epstein, Stabenow looks comfortable over James, Slotkin is still looking good. Basically everything good for democrats in Michigan

They still need to register and vote.

I don't believe that. Maybe 26

regardless, if/when Dems take the House, it'll provide some oversight on the GOP corruption and constant scandals. Hopefully the committee chairs will have a spine.
