    Lamb jumped by 700 votes without more precincts reporting, so I'm assuming those are absentee ballots coming in strong for him. Which is a good sign.

    That's true, but I'm a little concerned about the runoff from my neighbour's farm.

    “Well, see, without Trump this Lamb the sham would have won even bigger” is tonight’s talking point.

    Got out of sports years ago. But my fancy newspaper job was much less stressful and rewarding than my other job.

    If you go total turnout and divide by the number districts/precincts, that's about 210 votes per precinct.

    I do have to say I figured the Libertarian would have loused things up a bit more for Saccone.

    I am confused. A few weeks back, we were told that Trump was at 42% and trending upward. That the tax law was getting more and more popular with real Americans.
    In the 18th district of PA, the Trumpists quickly discovered that beating their chests about their Lord's tax plan was a loser. They scrapped ads on that topic and replaced them with claims that their guy would "respect our flag." Like the opponent, a former Marine, wouldn't.
    Unless their guy wins 60% of the outstanding absentee votes, they'll lose.
    This is a district the President Bone Spurs won by 20 points. In less than 18 months, it has flipped.
    No, he is not getting more popular.
    He is a wretched human being.
