Listening to Breitbart radio this morning, the thought that stands out most is that this is a special election that is extremely close to the mid-term election in November.

That means that whatever happens today will just be redone in November. Sure, the winner *may* have an advantage in November from running as an incumbent, but that person will have to start campaigning IMMEDIATELY after winning, so there won't be much of a record to run on.

Furthermore, turnout today may be impacted mostly by Democrat enthusiasm that might be more evenly matched by Republican enthusiasm in November than it is today.

So, the bottom line may be that the MSM gets a meme to play up for awhile, but that whatever happens today gets redone in November for real, when a "national" momentum will be in play.

If R’s stick with the messaging they have had for this race, they will lose many close districts and the house in the fall.... Take that to the bank. Regardless if Saccone wins or loses.

There messaging used in this race IMHO does NOTHING to turnout the MAGA I and D crossover voter.....

IF this messaging is the plan for the fall, They WILL lose the house.
