They have basically no predictive value on election results. That said: If this is accurate, it should be a good night for Jones. Iirc, 25%+ was a favorable turnout for him.

Martell Spy Posted December 12, 2017 Share Posted December 12, 2017 So, a local conservative talk show host is discussing a young man of 25 who doesn't work. And he points out that there are jobs for the taking right now in Seattle, as well as the fact that the jobs pay minimum of 15$/hr. Now, leaving aside the issue of the man, this is the same talk show host that ranted for hours about how the 15$/hr minimum wage raise is going to cost jobs. Further, he devoted much time talking about that infamous UW study predicting job losses from the 15$ minimum. The talk show host of course doesn't address this. Why isn't Seattle a ghost town, having implemented crazy left wing policies? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OldGimletEye Posted December 13, 2017 Share Posted December 13, 2017 Even well educated conservatives have acted like real morons of late. See Casey Mulligan, other random conservatives, who have advanced educations acting like fools. And when even the alleged smart ones act like idiots, what do you expect from random conservative in Pigsknuckle Arkansas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That may well be. But I'd put forward another theory: Conservatives never cared about job losses for low wage workers in the first place, as they claimed. They cared only for pimping for pro business organizations such as the National Restaurant Association, a restaurant lobby group. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just like how this corporate tax cut is supposed to be about middle class wage growth. They don't care about that. They just want to please the CEO Business Clowntable. That's about it. And that's why you have things like this nonsense one piece of paper coming out of the Treasury department. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sivin Posted December 13, 2017 Share Posted December 13, 2017 I'm going to be honest. There's a bit of hope in my heart with Trump's approval rating being less than fifty in Alabama of all places. Even if Moore pulls it out close, maybe. Just maybe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Pepper Posted December 13, 2017 Share Posted December 13, 2017 With about 900 votes in, Jones is at 65%. This is probably the last moment we'll see him in the lead. I've savored it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DMC Posted December 13, 2017 Share Posted December 13, 2017 Exit polls suggest a very long night. Ugh. Really don't care about Alabama that much, but I won't dare dgaf it, for fear of this: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fez Posted December 13, 2017 Share Posted December 13, 2017 Per the full CNN exit polls, it'll be close; but probably a small Moore win. It sounds like AA turnout is up (as the early exit polls also said), and that Jones did better with white voters than Democrats usually do in the state but probably not by quite enough. Could go either way though: We'll see what the count says. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
