Mr. Chatywin et al. Posted November 7, 2017 Share Posted November 7, 2017 6 minutes ago, Mexal said: Haven't seen anything. I'm just seeing millennial vote seems to be higher in high millennial counties (also Dem). Turnout is still down compared to a presidential year but it looks up from 2013 in places Dems need it to be up. Well that sounds good overall. One of the things that I think Dems have going for them is that they know this is a race they can and should win, so enthusiasm should be up even if the candidate does nothing for your average Dem.

Only thing is, I'm not seeing any information in the rest of the state. Everything that has come in is positive from Dem dominated counties but not seeing elsewhere. Turnout could be up there too and we don't know yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's an interesting development. Somewhat expected. The lobbying is incredible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This must be like your Superb Owl. OMG. You have no idea. There hasn't really been one since 1986. And before then 1954. The stuff that's happened here and there (Bush tax cuts, etc.) hasn't really changed too very much. This is no 1986, but still. Given that we are tax lawyers, this is more like the Triwizard Tournament than the "Big Game." Particularly the bit at the end with Voldemort.

lokisnow Posted November 7, 2017 Share Posted November 7, 2017 1 hour ago, Tywin et al. said: I don't think it matters, and I really don't care to know if she did or not. Not sure why relitigating 2008 would be beneficial when it's not even clear if relitigating 2016 is. And it's not surprising, a lot of Obama people helped Clinton in 2016. Politics, like sports, heavily relies on copycatting other people's successes. It's important. Because if you're going into surgery to remove a cancer sometimes you find out the cancer is much more extensive than initially thought. We need to know how deep the Clinton cancer goes so we can put in place a sufficient recovery plan. Until we've excised the incompetents, we'll probably keep repeating the "successes" of 2010 and 2014. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although Gillespie didn’t need to win it in order to win statewide, he needed to be competitive. He’s down 18 points. Let's do this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like turnout among white liberals was way up relative to other gubernatorial elections. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
