Omg Fetterman!
Lol runoffaments
NBC News now at 220-215 R +/- 8, the Boebert upset loss would be big if we could pull that off. Might put it back within reach.
But regardless, we took the PA, MI, WI governors races. Weāre probably a small favorite to win the AZ governorās race and may still pull out NV. That means there WILL be a path to the presidency for the Dem in 2024.
We are a healthy favorite to win the Senate at this point, and may even gain a seat. That means more judges, and it means the GOP is not getting to 60 Senate seats in 2024, at least. And Fetterman is a progressive and a vote to nuke the filibuster so thatās good, too.
And itās almost 4am and the House isnāt called yet, and the margin is going to be small enough that weāll only need a few sane Republican members of the House to prevent them from refusing to certify a Dem win in 2024.
All in all thatās a huge fucking win tonight.
Once again CW single-handedly saving democracy
Iāll be pretty disappointed if Katie Hobbs doesnāt come through in Arizona.
Get fucked Zeldin

So what happens if nobody gets 218 votes?
just need a majority. part of the first tweet says āif everyone casts a ballotā
so if as an example, 4 abstain, the number needed to win will be lower
Thank you GA libertarians/racists
There could be an avenue for Dems to meddle and try to throw some support to a moderate R. Or more likely just let their caucus be a shit show.
Nancy switches parties and remains speaker
Then runs for president in 2024 as a California Republican.
Maybe they think voting third party is less harmful in Georgia because of the run-off threshold being 50%.
One silver lining if we lose the House is that it absolves the shitheads running the party for getting nothing done the next two years and lets them go with āvote harder and weāll do something,ā and keeps it less obvious that itās bullshit.
Very real chance we getā¦
2022: R House, D Senate, D POTUS
2024: D House, R Senate, D POTUS
2026: R House, R Senate, D POTUS
Which means pure gridlock, more SCOTUS bullshit and more Boomers dying off and more Gen Z voting.
I feel reasonably good about our democracy still being in tact in 2028.
I gotta pass out soon but NV is very shaky imo. Gun to head D prevails but thatās more hopium than anything I can justify analytically. There is a lot of D mail vote left but MCC is down a chunk of votes atm. Warnock should be favored over Walker in December, but I donāt want to sweat that shit all over again.
