add the two together and you get 295,367.  There should be 20,676 votes left to count.  He leads by 3,500ish votes so she needs 13,838 of the remaining 20,676 (67% of the remaining votes).  If what's left is early votes or city votes he's probably good.  If it's country dumbass votes, there might be a problem.

Do I have that right?

IDK. Does the % represent votes counted/outstanding or precincts reporting?

So, all of this gruntles the hell out of me.  Yay, sanity!

However, I've got two concerns now, and I'm sure they've occurred to many of you as well:

1. The election rigging shit is about to go into overdrive and probably some people are going to get hurt.

2. The apparent rejection of Trump leaves a power vacuum and the people who created Trumpism are going to fill it, with what monster now...?

Desantis. Last night was a huge wake up call for a lot of Republicans. Unsurprisingly, Mitch had it right the whole way. He usually does.

The GOP Civil War will need to get Trump to privately concede to DeSantis. Even if big money donors are moving to DeSantis, there are still many GOP politicians that will not want to risk pissing off Trump if he's not agreeing to being pushed to the side.

% reporting isn't an exact number. It usually refers to precincts and not voters. After all, since they haven't counted the votes, they don't know how many votes there are to count.

Expand  

What I thought. And precincts may vary somewhat in population and traffic I presume, so not sure if it’s a good proxy for total outstanding votes for an exercise like this.  But assuming it’s not too far off, are there lots of areas in her district that she won 65% or higher?

Yup, something along those lines. I guess we'll find out how seriously Trump is taking the lawsuits and indictments coming his way. If he opts not to run and give up his rockstar status, it's because he knows that he may need that pardon.

Cmon Texas. Going for it could have been worse Gerg. Dan carpet bagging Goeb, and crook Paxton is so disappointing. I wanna say you get what you pay for - but what are they to do when it’s gerrymandered to fucking hell. Keep pushing ahead.

Looking at Arizona, all the red counties have 80% + votes counted and the blue have 60% +. Should be more votes for Kelly and he currently has a 100,000+ lead. Looking good there.

Desantis. It's always been Desantis. I've been saying for two years that the real money behind the Republican party has moved on from Trump to a more suburban palatable version. This all but makes it official.

Good thing trump is going to Leroy Jenkins their best laid plans.

Expand  

Yeah, DeSantis is the one who makes sense, and maybe the vitriol inside the party will get so bad that DeSantis won't even pardon Trump and his crew.  That would be a nice silver lining.  But at the end of the day, DeSantis will be just another puppet for the Bannon/Miller/Mnuchin/etc cabal, and DeSantis will understand that better than Trump ever did, which might actually make him even more dangerous.

But I also mean longer term when I say what monster are they going to create?  Trump may have been rebuked, but the heavily armed horde of people they've brainwashed into not trusting intellectuals and fearing foreigners and all of that, those people are still out there and still riled up.  I'm concerned about the possibility of a true fascist leader filling the vacuum.  Is that DeSantis?  Or the guy after him?  I feel like the next 2 to 10 years are gonna be a very dangerous time, in spite of this welcome election result.

When Palin announced for the AK rep seat, I wrongly assumed that she would be able to win relatively easily. I would never want to vote for someone that quit on the voters in the past, and presumably enough AK republicans felt the same.

Palin better have saved up enough money from Dancing with the Star or the Masked Singer because she's 100% dead weight in the GOP now. I don't even think anyone would want her endorsement much less appearance.

Keep pressing on abortion. Exploit wedges in the GOP base in the coming Trump vs Desantis dogfight, and keep the true Trump cultists home. Point out that a very narrow GOP House majority is basically holding the country hostage with obstructionism (because they will, McCarthy won’t allow votes on compromise bills).

And probably most importantly, and least in their control, economy needs to have a relatively soft landing and be on a decent trajectory two years from now.

Pelosi is probably done after what happened to her husband. Spend the next 2 years grooming leadership. Hakeem Jeffries should be leading the Dems now

Yes, but how "lucky" were he that he's a fucking idiot who surrounded himself with other fucking idiots?

My in-laws in KS are gonna lose their shit.  I've been trying to calmly tell them that their state is the perfect example of why this Red State v. Blue State narrative they've been told is complete bullshit.  It's rural/exurban v. urban/suburban.  Less than a handful of counties just re-elected a centre-left Democrat because young people, people of color in Wichita, and women in the KC and Topeka areas voted for her.  

I wonder how many pills Trump is taking this morning.  He's got two plays left---bend over for DeSantis in the hopes he gets a pardon in 2025.  Or double-down on his significance, make people placate for his base, and declare that he and he alone can bring that ever-evasive Red Wave.  I don't see a third option.  Except prison.  

Edit---i don't how the fuck people listen to Colin Cowherd for sports, let alone politics.  He's an even dorkier Jim Rome.  I gave him a shot a few times on morning commutes, but I'm genuinely surprised he could shut the fuck up about Reggie Bush and LeBron James long enough to get out a political thought or two.

Well he was attacked in an attempt to target her and she’s 82. She’s heavily hinted this might be her last go around.  I’m also not 100% sure she keeps the gavel if Dems win the House, just because a lot of the young bloods in leadership (Jeffries, Clark, etc) want their turn and 2025 and beyond would be a Pelosi-less caucus

Offer a full pardon for Trump and his kids.  Throw in some narcissist juice like the Presidential Medal of Freedom for his “saving of America” and have Elon buy a company of Trump’s that makes him a real billionaire.  All he has to do is bend the knee to DeSantis.

Of course, Trump will still blow it all to smithereens.

Kept the House delegation at 13. I was hoping to pick up a 14th but maybe in 2024. 

I think we probably got gerrymandered out a few seats in the state house and senate but we'll see.

Dems need Trump to stay in the race, even at the risk of Trump being re-elected. Dems need a national voice (not Biden) to goad Trump into staying in the race. Effectively paint him as a coward if he even thinks about not running.

For the way-too-early look at the 2024 senate races, the map is extremely bad for Dems. Most likely 0 opportunities for pickups and several red state incumbant Dems on the ticket. Dems do not need an united GOP.

I think y’all are underestimating there devotion of the Trump cult and overestimating the IQ of those who vote in Republican primaries. Trump is going to have several months to himself in the field. There will be other candidates to siphon votes from the two of them early on. It will be a long, protracted, nasty 2024 primary. But it won’t be one like 2016 where Trump wind getting 30-40 percent of the vote because of the size of the field. It’ll be the Republican version of Clinton-Sanders, but more terrifying and more brutal.

All he knows and every spec of his being will make him go hard to the paint.

He is going to run or not-run, run to extract all the blood from his Maga turnips.

He’s not going to bend over until it’s his only option.

But if De-sanctimonious can weather the storm, And beat trump (big if) trump will fold like a lawn chair and start sucking him off.

Big if.
