We all are. Republicans pushing towards doing away with democracy, Democrats playing good cop and allowing it to happen while offering token resistance. We are good and ####ed that’s for sure.Wow. Unbelievable. Dems are in huge trouble.

I could be mistaken but wasn’t it McAuliffe who said that parents didn’t have a right to determine what their children are taught? That doesn’t sound very democratic to me.We all are.

That's too bad. As a news organization you should just be reporting the news and not hyperventilating.John King still in denial, saying over and over this will go till late in the night. Very sad to see. He’s literally hyperventilating.

Cyber Ninjas just got the call!Here we go...Fairfax county results delayed. Ballots have to be rescanned by hand. Stay tuned.
Oh I’m pretty sure it isn’t hyperbole. They all want total power over us. This Country has been moving this way for 40 years. It seems to be accelerating but who knows. I don’t see any way we pull it back. It was a good run. But it’s going to get real ugly in the next 100 years.Hyperbole ain't got nothing on you!
You're clearly not paying any attention to what's going on underneath the Democrats control.
We're on the Third Rock From the Sun. Where are you?
Yes sure was? He said the quiet part out loud like when Trump said don’t listen to anyone but me for news or whatever at that rally.I could be mistaken but wasn’t it McAuliffe who said that parents didn’t have a right to determine what their children are taught?

MSNBC suggested a bit ago this is because they didn't go left enoughMSNBC and CNN both struggling with the spin.
Kornacki is the best of the television guys digging into counties and trends.Kornacki the star by far on the ongoing results analysis. CNN a distant second and FOX bringing up the rear.

He is fantastic.Kornacki is the best of the television guys digging into counties and trends.
Kornacki and then Dave Wasserman and Nate Cohn on the Twitter are all good. Wasserman in particular is good because he'll make a call once it's ~obvious without waiting until it's certain. I'm sure he misses one every now and then as a result, but I'd rather know 99/100 early than 100/100 late.Kornacki the star by far on the ongoing results analysis. CNN a distant second and FOX bringing up the rear. He pretty much called it 30 minutes ago without calling it.
Wasserman is a great follow for sure. He had calculated benchmarks for each county/city going into this that each would likely need.Kornacki and then Dave Wasserman and Nate Cohn on the Twitter are all good.

Cohn is the guy who oversees "The Needle" for the NYT. I believe they do the same thing by precinct. Which is kind of nutso if my memory is right.Wasserman is a great follow for sure. He had calculated benchmarks for each county/city going into this that each would likely need.
He's the MSNBC guy? If so, he's been the election guy GOAT for quite a while. Love watching him.Kornacki the star by far on the ongoing results analysis.
I thought they got rid of the needle after Trump won. I watched the needle that night - it was pretty awesome.Cohn is the guy who oversees "The Needle" for the NYT. I believe they do the same thing by precinct. Which is kind of nutso if my memory is right.
ETA: yeah -- he just tweeted that 1900 precincts have reported in VA with Youngkin overperforming the target in almost all of them. He expects a +2% Youngkin win after everything shakes out.Cohn is the guy who oversees "The Needle" for the NYT. I believe they do the same thing by precinct.

It's over. All of the benchmark numbers each needed to hit are almost down the line falling on the Youngkin side. Stay tuned to MSNBC for the talks of how this was racist and we are in danger of losing our constitutional system while in the next segment they suggest doing away with the Senate because it's not fair that small states get represented that way.
