More razor thin margins...
Oh thank god, but still Mcsally should have smoked that hadji taliban lover in the voting, something is odd in AZ, do any FReepers know?
Rosendale up 1179 with 87% in according to ABC. Loooks like the precincts that haven’t reported are largely in counties Tester won. This will probably get tighter. Hopefully Rosendale can hold on.

Bad night. Pelosi & Co. will obstruct, impeach, shut down tax cuts, the wall, immigration reform. Everything is at play and eviscerating at risk. The races we won were too close for comfortable. While not the worst case scenario, close to it
Jobs not mobs
Totally disagree. Trump now has someone to blame if anything goes wrong. And we don’t even know if Pelosi. An win the House - 12 RATs have pledged to vote against her. God is sovereign - there’s a reason the House was put in the RATs hands, looking forward to learning why.
I hope Trump uses 2019 to begin hammering the communists including...
1. Firing Sessions & Rosenstein
2. Hire an AG who will clean out the traitors in DOJ/FBI
3. Begin issuing indictments for the attempted communist coup d’etat by Clinton/Mullah hussein44
4. Appropriate $25B from military and build the freakin’ wall
5. Investigate/Clean-out the massive Voter Fraud
They have been big John McCain supporters before.
I think Sinema got large amounts of Leftist Billionaire funds.
Also Ruth Buzzy needs to retire now or die. She was hoping for a Dem Senate majority - THAT AIN'T HAPPENING RUTH.
Picking up 4 Senate seats and winning the FL and OH governor’s races is hardly worst case. Many of the House seats in suburban districts were barely won by the Dems. We lost two in VA by about 1% that I am sure will revert to Republican control in the next election or two. Trump hurts repubs in these upscale suburban districts. Have to take to good with the bad.
Pelosi can’t do anything about the existing tax cuts. The Dems can and will obstruct and may impeach (would be difficult with a 10 seat majority) but Trump is adept at these types of political battles and I am confident he can outsmart Pelosi. Large Senate majority will make it easy to staff executive branch and judiciary with conservatives.
Good news about McSally, and the Senate in general. Losing the House really sucks, though. Two years of nonstop witch hunts ahead. Trump should tell them to pound sand.
Update for Montana
Rosendale 49% 200,776
Tester 48% 199,218
94% of precincts reporting.
Looks like the NYT is wrong. They projected that Tester would pull ahead and win the remaining vote by over 17%. I thought that another example of Democrat wishful thinking and it looks like it was.
I would not declare victory yet on those two races. Most of the precincts outstanding in Montana have been in counties that have voted for Tester so far and there are more ballots to count in AZ.
Is that +4 assuming Rosendale wins?
From ABC - Looking better for Rosendale
Rosendale 200,776 49%

This tells you all you need to know about the Democrat Party in the U.S.
The +4 assumes Rosendale wins, yes.
The Republicans lost one seat (Nevada), but gained seats in Florida, North Dakota, Indiana, Missouri and it looks like in Montana.
That and the VETO pen.
America is about to learn about that little used Executive power...
