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.
(Excerpt) Read more at nytimes.com ...
two precincts in Westmoreland still out according to news idiots with 95 vote difference,
Believe thats a red county
Conor Lamb leads by 0.4 percentage points, or 847 votes, over Rick Saccone with 99 percent of precincts fully reporting
Loss now 847
“Pittsburgh TV is saying Saccone’s team thinks they won this race”
The vote is within a few hundred. Should be we expect them to say otherwise?
Is the number of absentee ballots sent out for each party known by election officials?
Conservative county
Except for my family
Hope they didnt vote
Alleghany is done; they just counted and reported their absentees so that Lamb has a 847 vote margin. There are 3,206 absentees left from the Republican majority counties.
If Saccone gets 58%, he wins.
from 95 to 847?
dang
800+ votes magically came for Lamb from Alleghany absentee
yes it is
Lamb just pulled ahead pretty decisively and no one knows where the votes came from. I am guessing Allegheny absentee votes. Just reported from MSNBC, yes, the Allegheny absentee has been counted.
847 behind now
nevermind DEM county is starting to count their absentee ballots tonight.
How did it go from losing by 95 votes to losing over 800 votes in the matter of minutes? Dem voter fraud ALREADY?
Everything else should favor Saccone, but who knows if 2 precincts and the absentee vote in the three other counties is enough.
I think there were but 2k absentees in that county so an 800 vote margin is reasonable.
absentee ballots from allegheny? perhaps
Allegheny absentee ballots in Lamb up to 847.
But 3000 absentee ballots outstanding in GOP counties.
847 behind now
