Even running a sorta Conservative guy vs an old boring geezer, they still cannot win a Special Election! LOL

Pence is boring.
What is RNC Chair Ronna Romney doing? She’s certainly not showing any leadership.
Remember how other RNC Chairs used to be on the talk shows a lot? Where is Ronna?
This means Trump and the NSA have taken covert measures against Dem voter fraud; as is alleged happened with Soros and the Cayman Islands during the Presidential election...
The NYT is projecting a Saccone win by 2.0% based on where the current votes are coming from. The Saccone strongholds have yet to report. A lot will depend on their turnout.
Maybe the Slimes know that the rest of the areas yet to be counted are solid Republican. This reminds me of the last election, they counted the Republican areas first, and the Slimes kept on giving the edge to the Dem even though the Republican was winning..because the areas yet to be counted were solid Dem districts
Westmoreland is easily the Republican heart of this district. Saccone must, and hopefully will, win big time there and overcome the squishes in Allegheny County.
The NYT is projecting Saccone at this point.
Nate Cohn: “Still quite early, but you can see the pattern on the bottom end of the chart. That shows that, in GOP areas, Saccone doing a bit better than we thought he would. But we don’t have many GOP areas in so far.”
Losing by 7,291 with 153 precincts(26 percent of total)
“Saccone’s areas are not even up there yet”
Yep. Westmorland County and most of Washington County will be heavy Saccone.
I think in Allegheny County, NYT is overestimating Lamb in South Park, Jefferson Hills, and Pleasant Hills :-). If I’m right, Lamb’s finished ... those areas have been trending red anyway. South Park is accepting “refugees” from formerly conservative areas in the region ... Jefferson Hills is kind of “booming” (in a Pittsburgh sense) in real estate. Many conservatives have taken up refuge in Pleasant Hills.
To top it off, non-public union support for Democrats has been plummeting in the South Hills.
My vote hasn’t been posted yet ;-).
Looking pretty good for Saccone still ...

Actually 18th congressional district.
Yeah, that’s good. There’s nothing reported from there yet.
That’s probably what the meter thing is predicting.
> But he turns off a lot of people ... I will stick with him ... but I’m just sayin ... <
I’m going to defend you here, kinda. I know western PA very well. Most folks in the region are blue-dog Democrats. They are Democrats because their fathers were JFK Democrats, and their grandfathers were FDR Democrats.
They went for Trump because he promised to bring industry back to America. The Wall, North Korea...everything else is secondary to them.
These folks want to see steel mills along the river again. And they believe Trump promised them that.
But nothing has changed. I know, it’s VERY unrealistic to expect big changes in just a year and two months...but folks are listening to the biased media, and they are starting to grumble.
The PA election web site is saying Saccone has a 60% chance of winning.
36% of the vote in. NYT shows R with 60% chance of winning.
Damn straight. And you’d better watch how the counting is done, if you don’t want dimpled chads and hanging chads, and magically appearing ballots.
Losing by 5,668 with 211 precincts (36 percent of total)
They both need to go to DU.
People, links please.
And what if Saccone wins in a blowout, or like Karen Handel did in GA by 4 points? What would that indicate?
