Official midterm results and market implications thread.

I get it. Democrats love to live all cramped and crowded together in urban areas, paying $3k per month for a 400 sq ft apartment with no parking while us uneducated folk like wide open spaces, fresh air, plenty of parking and huge houses.

I know...we're the dumb ones!

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.

ABC News projects that Republican Mitt Romney will win the Senate race in Utah.

ABC News has just called Texas for Ted Cruz, in a race that looks like it will wind up pretty close to the polls.

Even though it looks good for Cruz, I'm still not counting my chickens. Cruz is only up 115k votes.

But man...how embarrassing for democrats when Beta raises the most money ever in a senate race and still can't win.

No amount of money can change learned ignorance. The caravan is coming to take your jobs and give you small pox.

Speaking of caravans, i'm betting Beto wished he didn't give so much of those campaign contributions to the caravan now. They didn't even get here in time to vote! LOL

Yea, he gave $300 worth of supplies to poor people who were not in a caravan by the way but you see, in the Republican world, no good deed goes unpunished.

Speaking of that, passing Medicare and keeping these retirees alive was the biggest mistake Dems ever made and they will continue to pay for it for another decade or two.

Kobach going down is definitely my favorite result of the night.

Personally I never expect Beto to.I donated and hope but never thought he would.My hope is he comes within 5 points.

Even with Betos loss Dems should be very happy about Texas.

The seat Beto and Cruz are running for was won by Kay Baily Hutchinson by 25 points in 2006.It was won by Cruz by 16 points in 2012.

Bush won TX by 23.Romney won TX by 16 and Trump won it by 9.

If Beto pulls within 5 Texas is almost a blue state and a toss up Trump will have to take resources and millions from other states to defend.

Republicans have went from winning presidential and senate races in 2004 and 2007 by 23 and 25 points to winning the presidency by 9 in 2016 and and the senate even less in 2018.Not good for republicans my friend.
