Apparently yet another rejection of our Orange Hog in a heavily republican district..

what part was rejected? it certainly wasn't the stance on no new gun regulations or his stance on tarrifs. lamb agrees with trump on those issues.

 

[BRUTALITOPS]

No it doesn't. He'd have to win 70% of the absentee votes to win .. which is highly unlikely.

If Lamb's lead holds, republicans will have lost EVERY election since Trump became president .. and the midterms are coming fast.

Democrats will retake the House, possibly the Senate .. and Trump gets humiliated.

are you fucking stupid or do you just make shit up? Republicans have won 5 special elections keeping their seats.

He's also "personally" against abortions.

 

[BRUTALITOPS]

I literally like this guy lamb. Cypress if he didn't slobber over teamBlues dick and couldn't get a talking point out of it would probably hate the guy lol

 

[rjhenn]

Rather the FBI used legitimate FISA warrants based on actual intelligence of Russian collusion to monitor the Trump campaign's dealings with the Russians, in the interests of national security.

Hmmmmm...Maybe Lamb is a lamb in sheep's clothing.......a conservative plant..............by the Russians!!!! Yeah, that's it! LOL!

That sounds salty to me.

I don't know; I think we need to establish some sort of guidelines as to what sounds salty. "Salty language" should be one of the 1st qualifiers.

He's a Democrat.

Pure comedy gold, folks....

"After Trump campaigned for Saccone in the western part of the state, some Republicans said his appearance there on the candidate’s behalf may have hurt his chances of winning. One woman even said it made her consider voting for Lamb."

Looks like absentee ballots from red parts of the district will give Saccone the votes he needs.

Wishful thinking. He needs over 70% in his favor.

 

[domer76]

Even if what you say is true, it's close enough for a recount to examine voter fraud by Democrats.

Republicans want this one to disappear.

you're not good at internetting. I am the judge.

there is no evidence this is the case beyond your anecdote. maybe the picture will be clearer after seeing exit polling data

 

[Stretch]

He's a Democrat.

Well doh! Hence my satirical comment that maybe he's not a Dem after all, but a conservative plant since he has so many conservative leanings. Geeeeesh, I hate to have to explain silly little jokes.

I was not paying that much attention to this race, but for a relatively obscure House congressional district, the GOP brought in their Orange Hog President, and massively outspent the Democratic candidate. That is a lot of fucking ammo to unload on an obscure House of Representatives district.

"Republicans have spent more than $9 millon to preserve control of a district President Donald Trump won by 20 points."

20 point turnaround. There are about 114 races more competitive than this one.

Ruh roh!

The above might be a sign that you're able to spin anything.

Not entirely sure - but it might be.

regardless of who wins the only spin possible is "gerrymandering changes things"........
