Its a test of Trump’s popularity. This is a a district he carried by 20 points in 2016.

Its a seat the GOP should be able to retain...

Polls will close in 25 minutes.

Remember AL? Democrat eked out a narrow win in a Red state.

We’ll see if the GOP GOTV operation is worth anything tonight.

" you want everyone in the world to think the way you do."

Funny, you think I'm a democratic. Let me be clear: I don't care if you or anyone else agrees with me or not. If you want to cop a plea for the PA voters - should they chose "Lamba Lamba ding dong" - okay by me.

I will repeat: the evidence to support a Trump choice is right in front of the voters. If they need a 'road to Damascus' moment, pity them.

I mean - what the hell - half the hunters in that state would vote for a candidate that would take their guns away.

Rural PA? Its conservative.

Pittsburgh and Philadelphia are Democrat strongholds.

They have a Democrat Governor.

Yeah, people there vote against their best interests.

I’m talking about Greene, Fayette and Westmorland counties. There are more registered Dems than Republicans. This is not part of the “T”.

If they vote strictly party, then Lamb is a shoo-in.

That’s why I called the race for him. Because party affiliation is usually a reliable guide to candidate preference.

And like I said, given Democrat enthusiasm we’ve seen in other special elections, that gives the edge to Lamb.

You’re right and it’s the reason for the gloomy posts on this thread. The GOP had to give Trump voters (many not GOPers) a reason to get to the polls.

The polls on Real Clear Politics look bad too. The trend was all toward Lamb. If Saccone can pull this out it will be 100% because of Trump’s visit.

Polls close in a minute,... and then the exit polls should project the winner.

I live in PA. Corbett screwed us on taxes, that’s why Wolf won.

VERY disturbing tweet.... #ThePersistence@ScottPresler

THIS IS CRITICAL:

Republicans have tried to vote for @Saccone4PA18 in Pennsylvania's 18th District and are being told they can't vote.

This election is based on the OLD district, not the new one. Let the Rick Saccone campaign know IMMEDIATELY if this has happened to you.

#PA18

I see the results on the NYT is 49.6% to 49.6%. This isn’t good. Democrats will magically come up with new bags of votes.

Trump has not been giving many people a reason to get to the polls lately.

A dead heat? Not good news in a district Trump carried by 20 points.

I understand that the democrats were allowed to redraw the district. I am not sure if that plays much into the outcome.
