This guy *supposedly* posted these same polls last year and got Wisconsin Michigan and Pennsylvania right https://mobile.twitter.com/mrbeercrusher/status/927951887369981959
Here’s the tweet showing trump up https://mobile.twitter.com/mrbeercrusher/status/796079698501599232

Now I don’t think this guy is real since he says Phil Murphy is only up 4.
Still he could be right.

I don't know about y'all but I just don't trust someone named "Mr. Beer Crusher" for polling

Republicans trust anybody when it comes to polling that is favorable to them.

If previous cycles are any indicator turnout reports usually result in making people flip out more than they predict the actual results.

CNN reports dems are encouraged by NoVA turnout but worried about high SW VA turnout


That's actually a misrepresentation of what was stated. Democrats don't have any word on what turnout like there is at all. There was zero stated that there was high turnout in Southwest Virginia.

Well, get used to it Republicans.  This is what you get when you make a deal with the devil.

What?! Republicans have won nearly every other special election since Trump took office.
They have held open seats, but haven't made any gains.

Berniecrat Lee Carter defeated the Virginia House Republican Whip.

Oh right, Berniecrats can't win in Virginia.

You just have to find some sort of way to be negative, don't you? Just stop.

Virginia is not a gain for the D's.

No, but it a seat that Republicans failed to gain and they are stuck at zero gains for seats of any sort this year.

Democrats, it will be your only victory, Moore will win widely in Alabama and this "victory" will be forgotten

Holding a safe seat like Alabama isn't exactly impressive. "Republican wins Alabama" is not exactly good headline material.
