A thread to discuss the results.
I feel like Lamb has a lot of momentum, has run as a moderate, and has run a better campaign. I'll predict he'll win tonight (although I'd like to see Saccone win).
NYT does a good job with election results.

DHS doesn't do vote watching. If any federal agency does (and usually it's only state level), it would be DOJ.
I wonder why they are playing games with getting the vote counted. Kind of odd IMO.
Wait until tomorrow. But there is one thing the Democrats COULD but won’t learn; to be competitive they need to run a young ex-Marine (not that there are really EX Marines) that is strong on the 2nd Amendment and agrees with Trump on Steel tariffs.
Should pick up about 500 votes on absentees.
Hopefully that will be enough for Saccone.
It’s bad either way. It shows that R voters aren’t going to go out and fight for Trump or his agenda. If Dems flip the House, Trumps agenda will come to a grinding halt and we will be looking at NANCY PELOSI back as Speaker of the House! It’s going to be HELLISH.
Come on R’s! What’s wrong with you!
“as supposedly pro-life, moderate, Marine officer “
Marine officer LOL.... he was a JAG. Lawyer in a uniform with programmed promotions.
this dude is a lefty and will be beaten by Schumer and Pelosi if he tries to wander from the reservation.
Maybe the Saccone campaign is right.
Maybe he has won this(THANKS TO TRUMP).
Sounds like Westmoreland cty and others are using the Waukeeshaw protocol. Reporting last so that the demos can’t manufacture enough votes to win.
In this situation that is actually a very good bet. I’ll bet he gets 75% or better.
I heard Lamb was sent from boot camp to Okinawa to work in JAG for two years, then transferred stateside. Sounds like he was being groomed.
Hopefully the GOP has lawyers watching this like white on rice
I’ve never understood it, but apparently there are a lot of leftists in the military now, at least it seems like more than it used to be.
Absolute flip of the coin.
Lamb comes from a political dynasty, he’s granddad was big time dem.
MSNBC guru saying Lamb may pick up votes in Washington and under perform the election day vote for Saccone in Westmoreland, plus the two precincts should be about 200 votes for Saccone; bottom line he sees not way Saccone makes up the difference. I would love to see that he is wrong though!
One thing is clear: there is no Blue Wave.
If Democrats can’t beat a Republican candidate in a competitve district by a healthy margin, forget about them taking over the House.
This was their do or die moment. If Lamb wins, he’ll face a stronger and more formidable GOP candidate in November.
It isn’t the win Democrats expected.

Ticket punching careerists. Post 9/11 military looks especially good on the resume.
