Less than a 1% spread, about 640 something vote difference?

Steel Tariffs didnt impress those voters?
This ain't 1979 anymore. Steel is a relatively small part of Pittsburgh's economy these days. It does not employ even a small fraction of the people it did back then.

You bet!
Same applies to that back stabbing sonovabitch, John “Wayne” Cornyn.

Another problem, at least in my area, is that the Dems are well organized in getting out the vote while the GOP is not.
To: SeekAndFind
If THIS didn’t get the GOP’s attention, the only remaining likelihood is they secretly long for the cushier days of minority status — same pay, less responsibility.

Of course they have never won a recount. They don’t get to count the votes.
To: SeekAndFind
Did they count the ballots in the trunk yet?

Plus, the Republicans will have eight months of anti-Trump votes from this guy to show that he lied to the voters.They will let him slide (it won't matter) and the district won't exist in November.

Election fraud, plain and simple. Far more likely, the dems are hungrier for victory than GOPers are, plain and simple.

"...Republican candidate looked like a slob and ran a tepid campaign..."
Completely agree with your points, Buckeye McFrog.
It is even SIMPLE steps like properly wearing a necktie and shaving the absurd and dated mustache.
Very basic techniques that a contemporary campaign manager and media manager should identify with complete ease.

Can you provide a link to this claim? I said the Dems outspent the Pubbies, on another thread, and was told that wasnt true. I tried to find any link to how much the Dems actually spent, but couldn’t find one. Only how the Pubbie took $10 million from outside sources.

RE:”

Given that it is raising almost everyone else’s taxes to pay for them.

Seams like a lot of trouble for a District that’s about to go Poof
To: SeekAndFind
How many total votes did Trump get in this district? How many Trump voters flipped to the Dem? That’s the question.
To: SeekAndFind
I wonder how many of these voters were recently imported?

RE: No need for panic, but cause for concern.
The GOP has lost several Congressional and one major Senate election during the past few months. Many in what were supposed to be solidly RED districts.
If this is an indicator of anything, it is this — this looks like a 2010 like sweep — IN THE OPPOSITE direction.
If Nancy Pelosi becomes speaker again in 2018, say goodbye to the Wall and Trump’s other agendas.
