Why does the nytimes keep going back and forth on the number of districts reporting?
Folks, sitting here watching the numbers change minute-by-minute isn't helping you at all. You're just gonna stress yourself out and get anxious, and it's not healthy. If you've already voted, just relax and go about your evening like any other. Things will be the same tomorrow morning regardless of what you do.
IT'S HER TURN

Not hurting me either. Not stressed or anxious. I'm just disappointed, mainly, because it shows just how much more a hill we have to climb to get our fellow countrymen back onboard with basically not being barbarians who kiss the asses of fascists.
I really hope there won't be any more upsets for the Democrats running for the House. Been shaking all night, both out of excitement and fear. Can't wait for Trump to call the race for the Senate an overwhelming win for the republicans and that the democrats should all die or something.
Looks like this gave a big boost to the 538 live predictions. +~6% for Dems to take House (not that that's been too accurate tonight)
name one time in human history that fascists got voted out of power like, cmon buddy
Now THAT is a win.
Yeah that's why I made Margaritas. If you voted you did what you can do. It's out of your hands now. It's okay to be nervous but getting anxious and beating yourself up doesn't help anything. Time to let it go and wait for the results to be final. The world will be the same tomorrow.
Even if Spanberger wins this year, she won't keep the seat long. VA-7 is comfortably red on a decent day for the Democrats, so her win is entirely based off of the blue energy. She may stand a chance in 2020 if the Presidential Candidate has some power behind them but she can't keep it in 2022.
NYT gives Democrats over 95% chance of reclaiming House https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2018/11/06/us/elections/results-house-forecast.html
Usually the fascists are smart enough to not allow the votes to work. Name one time in human history we've had a stupider fascist who refused to even consider the reality of the world around them? Even Hitler wasn't so blind - and he certainly wasn't so proud and vain he felt that nobody could 'reach him'. (Granted, his paranoia was also his undoing)
Honestly I think the only reason I'm still watching is that there's so many bars and numbers. I'm a gamer, you can't put this many stats and probabilities on the screen and not expect me to obsess over them!
Am I the only one who thinks she is too young?
And this is why I kept telling people to chill earlier. It's not over yet but the hysteria every time a Republican won (as though somehow Dems were going to take all seats) was unfounded
They're using the Deep State model obviously.
I think the string "Democrats have a 9x% chance" still brings people back to past traumas.
This whole red wave happens every election result cycle. Red pours in from the east, once the west starts to report, blue just pukes out of everywhere.
literally yes
If Ted Cruz wins texas *AGAIN* mark my fucking words when i can leave this state i'm stopping by the capitol building and dropping a fat log right on their doorstep.
At least Clinton is going to stay the fuck away, the odds aren't that good
Toxx pls
Will you be doing this while Capitol Police tackle you to the ground?
Weird Toxx But aight.
Oh thank god, Schuette lost his lead and is now trailing Whitmer by 10% in the Michigan governor race.
Leave your turds in Texas. I wont have you pooping in my city.
Maybe if human Ted loses he will go back to his home planet. Human Ted Cruz no longer needs to pretend.
My girlfriend (who's been the target demographic of Trump's "bad people" mantra) said the same thing to me during the last election. "I still have to go to work tomorrow, what does it matter now?" I deeply respect her ability to be level headed.
