A thread to discuss the results.
I feel like Lamb has a lot of momentum, has run as a moderate, and has run a better campaign. I'll predict he'll win tonight (although I'd like to see Saccone win).
NYT does a good job with election results.

Because ‘we’ - that is you and I don’t determine the election. The numbnutz in the district do.
Trailing now by 2,822 with 88 percent of precincts reporting. We are soon to run out of precincts.
Yes. Westmoreland isn’t reporting by precinct so nobody can project if Saccone can make up enough votes.
This district will not exist next election due to redistricting.

Cut up to favor the dems, correct?
Currently, 50.5 for Lamb and 48.9 for Saccone (87% of precincts).
“I count 1500”
Yeah that difference is correct.
Yes but the trend is not our friend.
If Saccone pulls this out it will be a major upset actually. At least in my view.
After the redistricting he'll have zero chance in the new district.
That’s my take
Down 1,976, but we are running out of precincts.
An estimated 40,000 votes outstanding using NYTs original estimate of 225,000 total votes.
2000 votes apart now.
Under a 1,000 now.
DOWN to 700 votes
o my only 700 vote difference
Just dropped to 1000 vote diif
“This is no different than AL, yes they won, but the next regular election, we will win it back.”
Very true, but the Dems get a narrative to attract donors. That’s why they blow a ton of money on these things. They need wins. This would be as big as AL if they win this district. If they lose, they still get to tout how they wiped out a Trump +18 advantage or some other narrative.
Bottom line is that the RNC needs to get voters to turn out. If they’re not up for it, then Trump will have to do the heavy lifting.
You can make any race close if you throw piles of money at it + get your side to turn out heavily.
Down to 700 votes.
Wow this is so close.
