Yeah, usually they talk to a room of phone bankers or canvassers and participate in the GOTV themselves, maybe.

Senate District 10 in Wisconsin will have a special election on Tuesday, January 16, 2018.

Senate District 10 in Wisconsin will have a special election on Tuesday, January 16, 2018.

Is this a competitive seat?

Senate District 10 in Wisconsin will have a special election on Tuesday, January 16, 2018.

Is this a competitive seat?

Looks like it is pretty much Burnett + Polk + Saint Croix + Pierce. When I think of this region of Wisconsin I think of Twin Cities Exurbs, but perhaps someone with a better knowledge of the state can educate us of the situation on the ground.

Very remote chance for it to be competitive.

Trump won it 55-38, but it looks like the Democrats got a decent candidate with the St. Criox County Medical Examiner. Probably won't be competative, but it will be interesting to look at the changes in the margins.

The reason for there being so many specials in Oklahoma in 2017 is that the entire GOP was revealed to be SEX PERVERTS, and the fallout from said revelation.

[mds32]

I predict Democrats go 1/3 with Steven Vincent being the winner for a State Senate Pickup. Anything where the GOP goes less than 3/3 is bad for them here.

[Ebsy]

SD 37 looks like it might end up being close.

[Mr.Phips]

The early/absentee vote tends to closely track the final result here.

[Co-Chair Bagel23]

Why is Tim Keller taking a downgrade and becoming the mayor of Albuquerque? It makes no sense.

The Democrat has taken the lead in SD 45 as well.

[Co-Chair Bagel23]

Can anyone tell me why Tim Keller is running for mayor, it sounds like a taking a lower position?

[Oryxslayer]

well, we don't know where these precincts are reporting form (Dem/Pub leaning areas) so don't get your hopes up....yet...

Democrats are winning the election day vote 2 to 1 in both seats. These are both heavily trump seats.

[LimoLiberal]

Oklahoma Rs need to get their act together asap...

[Co-Chair Bagel23]

Dare I say we can make it competitive (at least comparatively) in OK HD 76?

[Skunk]

Oklahoma Rs need to get their act together asap...

Nah, they can take their time.
