There's gotta be a way to get more Republicans interested and involved in primaries - or at least howling when GOP insiders start playing BS games with campaign funding.

How in the hell are we over a week from election day and some races in California are only around 50% counted? What? farcical.

Yes, it's so wrong, so let's complain about it.


Let them drag their feet. In the end, there will be a tally and they can't stop it.

POLLS CLOSE
11 p.m. Eastern

TIMING OF RESULTS
Some results will be reported on election night. But almost everyone in California votes by mail and ballots postmarked by Election Day can arrive up to a week later, so full results won’t be in until at least Nov. 15.

What are they postmarked from Freaking Antarctica or something?

{taptap}

Mic check, onetwo!

Check! Check!

Ssssssssssibilance

Ssssssssssibilance

Check! Ch-Ch-CHECKONETWO!

This not finished counting is unacceptable in todays world. A person can’t help but think something is fishy.

Well, the thought never crossed my mind, but now that you mention it...

Not only I'm LMAO, but I'm ROTFLMAO. Somebody stop me.

It’s a really long thread and I haven’t been paying attention.

Did we win?

For those wishing to lodge a complaint, there is a formal process via the Waiver. I'm gonna need the yellow pullout card from the back of the Waiver- the one stamped "TSMF".

Just fill out all fields on the card and drop it in any mailbox. Postage is pre-paid.

Once we have received your card, we will contact you.

Is yellow pullout card "harvesting" allowed ?

And will signatures have to match those on our waivers?

So, it looks good to happen, but unless you have some background suggesting they are better at prediction than Fox and AP, it may be premature for champagne and fireworks based solely on DDHQ.

Decision Desk has a very good rep for calling races, they are completely legit, with different media outlets using them. They have been around for years, just as legit as Fox, CNN, AP, etc.

NYT also predicts 218 for REPs

NYT predicts CA27 REP Garcia will win

NYT does not yet predict that CA03 REP Kiley will win. So

Decision Desk HQ says 219 REP, and NYT says 218 REP

Unless I missed a post here Fox is saying it is official the Republicans take the House?

^^^^^^

The WSJ has called 218 for Republicans, as well as Real Clear Politics. The others need to catch up tonight.

It's true.

ABC, NBC, Bloomberg etc have finally called the US House for the republicans, begrudgingly.

This was actually known 2 days ago so they delayed to dampen the spirits of those who voted republican.

Nancy Pelosi is not the Speaker come January.

That is not a given. With only a small majority, it would be possible for her to get 218 votes as Speaker. Some Reps would have to break ranks, of course, but it's still possible.

Vodka prices will be going up in California is my guess.
A certain someone is drinking it all up tonight.

THANK GOODNESS!!!!!! I was so afraid that cheer and good tidings would run amok in this thread. That the National Guard would have to be called to contain it. But, in true form, gloom and doom HAS to be introduced.
