I have CNN on (best election night coverage on TV despite their usual failings), and while they haven’t called anything, the Dems are flipping seats and only need 17 more. It looks like they could pick up the House which wouldn’t be shocking or surprising. It has happened under the past three Presidents.

Speaking of dumpster fires, I’m not liking what I’m seeing out of the 3rd CD...

Two GOP state house members defeated...another one barely hanging on...and Eric Paulson going down.

Don’t even get me started on the Senate and Governors races.

Even the republicans could still lose the Senate and the democrats not win the House at this point. I don’t see how they can “call” the House without calling the individual races. They can’t tell you the Democrat margin. I think it’s BS at this point.

No! No! Those two women look like they might be dancing... or maybe having fun!
They should be home reading the Bible and making sure their ankles aren’t exposed!

Can’t believe we moved to Texas two weeks ago just in time to see Cruz lose. I could have experienced this crap back in California!

No, few strong conservatives come out of KS unless you count Bob Dole, who was conservative in his early years.

Should Fox be banned as fake news?

Depends on if they turns out to be right. The definition of fake news is not news that we don't like.

Larry Schweikart ‏ @LarrySchweikart Following Following @LarrySchweikart More Gotta say, in 50 years of watching politics, I've never seen "the House" called before individual races for the House have been called. We have 200 "Smith vs. Jones" races out there that haven't been tallied.

Just a thought,but if you are so aggrieved and offended, why are you staying on this thread? I dont see anyone with a gun to your head forcing you to stay.
Laz is having a good birthday and a good time entertaining us while hosting this thread,. I for one, appreciate his efforts (and pictures)

18 to 29 year old punks voted at a 40 percent spread against Rs.

Even if the exit polls are off by ten, they gave a 30 point edge to dems.

That’s our future folks.

I agree. A Democrat house virtually assures a 2020 Trump reelection.

Does the width modifier work the same way? And does it have to be an integer number of pixels, or can you use the % modifier?

No. The key to thread efficiency is height. Browsers do not care about width, they only want to place things correctly, vertically. So they will see a height modifier, put a placeholder img block there, and go on. Then the pic will load at its own leisure.

And go with pixels, not %, or more calcs are required. A simple 'height=400' gives you the best thread efficiency.
