Bad news is Florida and Ohio.

We did keep the Senate seat in Oh though so its not a total loss like FL.

Like trading, you focus on what you can control which is risk. At the end of the day, how you handle your finances will affect you as much as what the politicians you voted for do to you in the policies they put forward as laws.

Alabama looks like it will probably pass a state policy against abortion. With 31 percent of precincts reporting, 66 percent have voted yes on Amendment 2, which would make it state policy to ‘recognize and support the sanctity of unborn life.’


What did I tell you, the party of fuck the poor and imprison children wants OTHERS to give forced birth, how very Taliban of them. Conservatives fashion their moral superiority on how others can't get married or others can't have abortion or others can't smoke weed and on and on while it's never about their own personal conduct.

A Republican in an earlier post is complaining about Dem ethics because of some video about polling place could cause voter disenfranchisement - he had zero problems with what Republicans did misusing the law in ND and Georgia. Zero problem.

Unreal how backwards some of these states remain in the year 2018.

Oops! Perry ‘accidentally told the truth’ about dumping nuclear waste in Nevada, roiling Senate race
Trump lies about his plan to flood Nevada with nuclear waste.

One thing that unites Nevadans is opposition to President Donald Trump’s effort to turn the state into a huge nuclear waste dump.

That’s why many were surprised when Trump suggested he might abandon that policy after touring the state recently with GOP Senator Dean Heller, who is in a tight reelection race against Democrat Jacky Rosen.

But Trump’s Energy Secretary, Rick Perry, admitted on Friday the administration still supports building the Yucca Mountain nuclear waste repository outside of Las Vegas.

In doing so, Perry effectively spoiled Trump’s effort to help Heller, as Jon Ralston, editor of the Nevada Independent, explained to Bloomberg: “Poor Rick Perry didn’t get the memo and accidentally told the truth.”

Thanks Rick



Jacky Rosen unseats Dean Heller in Nevada Senate race

Heller conceded with Rosen at 50.8percent of the vote to his 45percent. The Associated Press subsequently called the race for Rosen.
