Eight election night surprises to watch for
The hill ^ | 10/29/2022 | Caroline Vakil

This year’s midterms have already proven to be among the most unpredictable in recent history — and there could be more surprises in store for the country when results start coming in Nov. 8.

From a Republican governor looking to avoid an upset in a ruby-red state, to the chair of the House Democrats’ campaign arm fighting for his political life in a relatively friendly district, numerous races across the country are seen as potential wild cards.

They might but The Hill is a sewer so nothing from them is reliable

Not very incisive. They just polled several races that were getting less attention but were still reasonably close. Nothing you couldn’t glean from spending 60 seconds with RealClearPolitics.

9) “No Democrat cheating” <— the biggest surprise of all, and one not likely to be seen

This useless drivel is mainly a Democrat wish list, no surprise there considering the source, with 1 or 2 Republican upsets to give the appearance of a balanced analysis.

To no surprise, Demonicrat election officials will cheat more than they’ve ever cheated before.

Do you know what the REAL surprise and upset would be? That against all odds, the US Senate finds itself with a 60-38 Republican majority, with two “independents” that invariably side with the Democrat Socialists, and a House with a 290-145 Republican majority.

McConnell and McCarthy both out as Majority leaders.

But what the heck, if we are imagining a really significant sweep, why not go whole hog on it?

220-215 and 53-47 Republican majority. That includes the cheating.

Any race within 5% is inside the Commie ‘RAT Cheat Zone and is susceptible to being illegitimately decided by Leftist crooks (think: Stacey Abrams).

“I just can’t stand The Hill articles.”

There are so many here, I wonder if people get paid to post them.

"Oklahoma electing a rat for governor?? Any truth to that?

There is a divide and conquer Libertarian candidate in the race.

Yeah... OK... Not sure where you’re going with this... I was talking plausible surprises, not wild fantasies.
