I’m rooting for Herschel.
The elimination of the Libertarian candidate (who got around 2%, last I looked) will help Hersch.
So how long will it take them to count those votes?
Walker has the momentum and will now get all the $ he needs.
NV is already going GOP so the only question is Arizona.
Win Arizona and Senate control will be determined on Dec 6
Only if the Libertarians bother to show up and vote in the runoff instead of staying home.
Maybe, maybe not. Libertarian voters aren’t the laissez-faire activists some people think they are. Often they’re just people who don’t want to vote for either candidate.
Let’s hope so.
Unless the Turtle funds the Dim to keep the RINOs in the minority.
Johnson officially one his a senate seat. We just need two more.
Republicans won the House and may very well win the Senate. A good election out come!
I have not yet heard- did we pick up seats to win the house?
Why do you think the Libertarian votes will got Walker?
The fundamentals are counting until they find enough dem votes and then stopping with nary a peep from the repub
Yes we took the House and the Senate is still up for grabs. It's been discussed on several threads here and there but people seem to be downplaying it maybe because it hasn't been a total massacre like they had hoped.
I'm not so sure of that. I think the abortion issue is the cause of much of last night's red fizzle, based primarily on what I saw posted on FB for months by my old high school & college female friends (I'm in my mid-50s). Even some that are fairly conservative in other areas were one-issue voters this time. And that issue was abortion access.
I suspect that's why Kemp won his race pretty handily, while Walker did not. I think many semi-conservative women were okay with Kemp but couldn't bring themselves to risk a Republican Senate that would pass a national ban on abortion. But they also disliked Warnock - so they chose the Libertarian as the lesser of 3 evils. They'll sit out the runoff, so their Libertarian votes won't go to Walker. Obviously that doesn't account for all the Libertarian votes, but my hunch is that it accounts for a fair chunk of them.

The thing is, Roe v. Wade should have pretty much de-politicized the abortion issue, because it’s in the hands of the States now. But then Miss Lindsey goes shooting her mouth off and it was like Manna from Heaven for the Democrats.
Key line to crossing the goal line.
This time we had better win. Then with both houses we had better govern, and I mean govern.
VT and Michigan joined CA in aborting up to birth last night.
Hershel should be pounding on the late term abortion issues.
