Trump should make a campaign stop for the Republican candidate. After all, he did win the district.

There is no way to pretend that this isn't a bad result for Republicans. If they only barely win a 60-33 Trump district, then how on earth can they hold GA-6 which is +1 Trump. This is a huge warning of disastrous midterm.

Well to be fair all races have different circumstances and I do not really believe in uniform swings.

Fair to who? I wasn't being unfair to anyone, I was merely pointing out that Republicans have a major problem.

only the trolls are gloating, whoever knows anything about this stuff is quite serious.

Special elections are special. Turnout was by all accounts abysmal.

Also, what is happening in kansas is NOT happening in other states. The state is in the midst of a finance crisis, with the guy running today directly tied to it.

All politics is local.

Remember kansas during the 2014 national gop wave?

The "all politics is local" logic is dead and gone when it comes to federal races. This race would not have been close under a Democratic administration.

If I had to guess, there won't be a vote dump until around 1 am EST. The votes have to be driven into the county elections office in Norwalk, which is almost to the Orange County line. Los Angeles County is always slow in part to that.

Florence is the county seat of Lauderdale County immediately to the north of Colbert County.

Florence is incredibly close to the county line, so it is a fairly general area. Checking maps is a good thing to do.

It looks like it's over on the Republican side, one of Brooks only three counties flipped over to Moore. It's a Moore-Strange runoff.
