Dem Sinema pulls ahead of McSally in Arizona Senate race
The Hill ^ | 11/9/18 | Lisa Hagen

Posted on 11/09/2018 3:50:38 AM PST by DoodleDawg

Rep. Kyrsten Sinema (D) took the lead in Arizona’s too-close-to-call Senate race on Thursday night, holding a thin lead of 9,610 votes over Rep. Martha McSally (R).

Sinema holds a 0.5-point lead with votes rolling in, predominantly from Maricopa County, according to new numbers from the Arizona secretary of state's website. Votes were also posted from Pinal and Gila counties as well as Pima County, a Democratic-leaning county that’s home to the city Tucson.

The tally marks a shift from McSally’s initial 1-point lead as of earlier on Thursday, when the GOP congresswoman was up by 17,073 votes.

An Arizona source told The Hill that the latest numbers came from roughly 150,000 votes from Maricopa County, with another 345,000 outstanding votes still left from that county, which includes the capital of Phoenix, as well as Sinema's own congressional district.

Of the 159 counties in Georgia, most of them hate Fulton and could care less if Atlanta fell into a giant sinkhole.

But, with so many businesses relocating to the metro area and northern liberals coming with them, the cancer is spreading at an ever increasing rate. They love their bigger and newer homes, new schools, amazing new athletic fields and the low taxes. Those taxes won’t be low for much longer. They’re bringing their liberal disease with them and ruining the whole place.

Then again, I live in a county that went for Abrams, unfortunately. If she pulls out the win, Tennessee, here I come. Just hope that I can get out before she starts raising taxes thru the roof.

But, I would have like to ask her a question, being that she’s a Socialist, all about taking care of the little guy. Would she allow all the film industry people to unionize so they could fairer, more robust wages from all the studios that are filming in Georgia? I’m very curious to what her answer would be. On the one hand she’d probably love to let them unionize and then take their money. On the other hand, she got all her money from out of state liberals, Tyler Perry probably wouldn’t be too happy, and she’s a puppet to the Dem machine which is funded by the people that own and manage the entertainment industry. Only reason they’re in Georgia is so they don’t have to pay those union wages elsewhere and all the tax breaks/incentives, courtesy the Georgia taxpayer, that they’re given.

But, if the state legislatures are taken over by the Left, which they seem to be intent on doing. 7 Governorships went to the Dem’s this year. A convention of states might not be what we wish for.

The Dem’s are cheating and will not be held accountable. Look what is about to happen in Florida. The woman overseeing the recount has already been caught cheating in past elections and she’s still employed.

Funny how in these close races where vote counting drags on for a couple of days there always seems to be a few more votes “found” and even more odd, these extended counting sessions almost always seem to favor the democrats. Its almost like they are manufacturing votes until they get the numbers they need to steal the election... But I’m sure that’s just a coincidence... Does that even need a sarcasm tag? This is so common, so obvious it is a trope.

As I pay more and more attention to these elections, it’s amazing to me that the uncounted ballots always seem to be from the Dem strongholds and they always seem to be just enough to eek out the win for the Dem.

Funny how it always seems to work out that way, isn't it?

Republicans winning statewide elections, Republican Governor wins by double digit and turnout favored Republicans yet the Democrat wins the senate race??

Nothing to see here, folks, move on...

"Convention of States"? That's a great idea. Like "educating" people about our Constitutional Republic.

They need to take over 3/4s of the State Legislatures to get anything RATified. If it ever gets that bad throw in the towel !

I think I heard somewhere that Democrats have picked up over 330 legislative seats as well. It was taking these seats when Obama was president that helped the GOP when it came to revising congressional district boundaries after the 2010 census. The Democrats seem to have learned and are setting themselves up to do the same after the 2020 census.

As you say...the next step is to start voting for more taxes in GA for leftist causes, and pay-offs to their constituencies. It is happening in NC too.

I don’t understand how they counted ballots and already declared Duecy won but they supposedly still have hundreds of thousands of ballots to still count in the senator race? Ballots have both races and many others on them, so how is any race settled if hundreds of thousands still to count?

We’re f****d

I can handle losing elections fairly, but this stuff is soooo depressing, because there is nothing we can do about it.

This is the biggest problem with the left’s stranglehold on the propaganda media. The left can steal elections, and there’s no coverage, let alone uproar. R’s do the slightest mistake or miss-step, and all hell breaks loose.

Hillary rigged a primary (among many other crimes, but this example is on topic) and the media glosses over it. Hillary and her DNC cohorts co-opt the intelligence/state/judicial branches of our government to almost rig a presidential election but making false claims, producing false evidence, working with foreign interests (incl.russians), inserting moles (spies) into a campaign, and sending in trolls to lead them astray (entrapment) which they did not do, and still..... drop a pin and listen. Nothing.

These people don’t even have the WH and the Senate (or the house quite yet) and they can do anything they want because it all flies under the radar.

The biggest problem with the ministry of propaganda (NYT, CNN, MSNBC, ABC, CBS, PBS/NPR, Wapo, Etc.etc.etc) is not what they cover, which is eggregiously negative against one side, BUT WHAT THEY CHOOSE TO IGNORE AND THUS SHIELD FROM THE PEOPLE.

We better get these courts stacked hardcore.

I wouldn’t have said that 2 years ago. I always try to maintain some degree of objective integrity and try to be critical in my thinking, and not sink to their level because it then becomes more than tacit acceptance, it becomes the new normal, but there is no way to dowse this fire. Fire has to be fought with fire.

It seems Trump has come to us too late. The open border policies of the GOPe elite is starting to take hold and the result is mostly irreversibly via the ballot box.

Conservatives need to breed, pure & simple. This is demographics at work...

President Trump should promote this type of winning.

If she wins, we here in Az will have no representation in the Senate at all. Her vote will always cancel out Jon Kyl’s vote.

Representation for the state of Az as a whole will suffer. But I guess this would be better than having two fake republicans representing us. Nothing is better than two traitors at this point. The traitors are why this was allowed to happen.
