No but Iā€™m tempted to bet McCormick now, supposedly the outstanding votes are by mail, which should favor McCormick.

One time???

But he is still light years a better candidate than fucking Amy McGrath

I donā€™t really know anything about this lady (or Flynn, really).

I mostly had by funds tied up by betting against Lamb. Got in at .79 so a decent day but nothing crazy that could have been made from trading the swongs in Oz/McCormick

Supposedly sheā€™s progressive.

Oz leads.

And while weā€™re at it can we stop with Oprah already if it hasnā€™t been said enough? Thirty+ years and Dr Phil and Dr Oz and that thousand zillion pieces book and a bunch of other terrible book recommendations later and my god Ellen seems okay by comparison

It seems very likely that this thing heads to a recount. Itā€™s 31.2% to 31.2%. Itā€™s going to take another day or two to count the mail-in ballots and get the winner, then itā€™s very likely to be an automatic recount. Fetterman may not have an opponent for a couple weeks.

You should like her based solely on this:

Less than a handful of times in recent years, has the powerful House Majority PAC, which is backed by Pelosi and other leaders in the lower chamber, endorsed a candidate in a Democratic primary.

It broke with that tradition again when it gave Flynn more than $939,000 this election cycle. PAC Communications Director CJ Warnke said itā€™s doing ā€œwhatever it takesā€ to keep the House under Democratic control.

That and sheā€™s for single payer, so she sounds like a winner.

I wonder if this primary can be used to build Animus toward Pelosi from Hispanics.
