Lamb vs. Saccone Special Election PA18

NY Times ^ | March 13, 2018

[Pinkbell]

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.

oh trust me, this is definitely going to happen. We’ve all seen this movie before, right?

No matter what happens - there’ll be a recount.

This was a razor-close election. More like 2016. lol

Not exactly a Blue Wave flip.

AP saying they won’t call the race tonight ...

[NohSpinZone]

AP will not be calling the race tonight, according to Ed Henry on FNC.

[Pietro]

I think so

[snarkytart]

ABSENTEE BALLOTS FROM DEM STRONG ALLEGHENY CO were counted.

[Revel]

The sad thing is that recount is nothing more than a recount. It does not allow anyone to verify that all the votes are authentic. There is no chance to expose corrupt votes in a recount. They still get counted...Again.

I think there were but 2k absentees in that county so an 800 vote margin is reasonable.

That would mean Lamb got 70% of the absentee vote in Allegheny. Lamb only got about 57% of the non absentee in Allegheny.

[Sacajaweau]

Absolutely.....and my rosary...

[Blue Highway]

Now he is buddy buddy with Dana PeRINO, who loves to also bash Trump any chance she gets. I think it’s a tie between her annoying prais of her stupid dog Jasper, and her hate for Trump.

[goldstategop]

Washington County staying up late to count absentee ballots.

Its not over.

[snarkytart]

That would mean Lamb got 70% of the absentee vote in Allegheny. Lamb only got about 57% of the non absentee in Allegheny.

yea that stinks and isn’t a good sign.

[rockinqsranch]

When it’s this close the Democrats always have bags of ballots in the trunk of a car somebody will be finding just in time to win.

[Mozilla]

This district is being nuked in redistricting.

[Steven W.]

I’d hope the DHS vote watchers were on the ground.

[snarkytart]

maybe

Bill Mitchell ‏Verified account @mitchellvii 55s56 seconds ago Still 2 Westmoreland precincts out plus all red zone absentees.

Bill Mitchell ‏Verified account @mitchellvii 55s56 seconds ago Still 2 Westmoreland precincts out plus all red zone absentees. / / WTH is up with those TWO Westmoreland precincts?? Damn. okay Bill, we'll see what happens. The "red zone" didn't flip the race via NON ABSENTEE BALLOTS.

Somebody call the political equivalent of Diogenes! We’ve finally found some public servants who are going to serve the public!

[Revel]

Something that was exposed along time ago. A few Democrats switch to Republican before an election. For the explicit purpose of becoming.....Republican poll watchers. Its all rigged.
