looking at WI, the dem gov candidates have 426,759 votes with 70% reporting and the Rs have 350,579 votes with 71% reporting. that bodes well, no? or should it be assumed that a lot of voters who will go for walker in the general just skipped the primary?

Yeah I worried about this a bunch earlier tonight but 427 to 350 is a strong margin. Obviously primary does not translate to general but in a state that's sitting on the razor's edge like Wisconsin it does a lot to reassure my state of mind

get that OUT of my face posted:i was wondering why the Working Families Party hadn't sent me anything about Bryce in a while, i guess he's a deadbeat dad or something? regardless it owns that he won his primary he missed something like 2 months when he had to declare bankruptcy. I think the bankruptcy was related to his cancer, or maybe some of his other medical poo poo for injuries he suffered serving in Iraq, but I can't remember.

We swarmed the gently caress out of the capitol and it ended up not mattering in the elections ACK!

That 538 piece is hilarious because the research is based on house races where there is no Democratic incumbent. Guess what kind of district does not have a Democratic incumbent!

I'm generally disgusted by the end, so I usually save them for the gym, so I can work off my aggression at the same time. 538's discussion about "socialism" was actually ok, ironically enough.

Grondoth posted:That's how it is in most of these, too. You can usually look at a primary election and carry that over to the general no problem, not just in MN. i heard you can literally take the results from both primaries and just add them together to get the general election vote

Well we'll see how things happen in Nov, but alot of the Tea Party's power (as they turned into alliances like the Freedom Caucus) is their ability to jam procedure in Congress. Let's see if that happens here as well.

Let's see if that happens here as well. This is in conjunction with the GOP being in control in Congress such that there was an impetus to compromise with them in over to overcome any potential united Dem opposition. If they were in the minority, then there's largely no need as they'd either also oppose on principle or not have enough to stop it anyways.
