What is my take on this US senate election (22:00 EST). The counties that lean Republican have already posted their results. What is left are primarily Democrat counties and the counting of their mail-in votes. Currently there is a small lead for both Republican senators, but there is still more than 20% of the vote that needs to be counted. IMHO .... using the results of the last election, the Democrats are currently well poised to win one of these Senate seats. And .... there is a chance to win both seats and effective control of the US government..
Update 22:15 EST: Both Republicans have increased their leads with 83% of the votes counted. But the remaining votes that need to be counted are in Democrat counties.
Update 22:50 EST: The Republicans are still maintaining their lead with 91% of the vote counted. But apparently there are still a lot of mail-in ballots that need to be counted.
Update 23:40 EST: With 97% of the polls counted, the Democrat's are on the verge of winning both Senate seats (see below).
Update 23:50 EST: It looks like the Democrats are going to be in full control of the government. Here is another easy prediction. The financial markets are going to be very volatile in the coming weeks/months.

ReplyDeleteUpdate 23:50: actually I would have thought the probability of a Democrat sweep would have been already factored in as this result seemed obvious for weeks. After all the systemic irregularities that benefited the Democrats last time around were never seriously addressed. I used to think Wall Street was smart. Now I'm not so sure.
ReplyDeleteLoeffler was just defeated by the wife beating "Pastor". Perdue about to go down soon. The US is voting itself right into dysfunctional socialism. Determinedly so.
ReplyDeleteCONGRATULATIONS,
R,
Yes Russ they have and now the hunt for "enemies" begins in earnest. Just one problem, they must "always" have an enemy even if it's imaginary.
DeleteLol. So much losing. So much loser talk. So much projection.
ReplyDeleteSad!
Hope you stocked up the bunker Russ. Hunter Biden built a special boxcar just for you; gonna take you away to the re-education camps!
It ain't gonna go like you think, so enjoy yourself!
DeleteAbout those mail in ballots.

This wins are like a Barry Bond stat. There will always be an asterisk by it.
Congress spent more time on baseball than on voter fraud. How does investigating baseball grow the economy or defend the nation from Russia or China?
Robbers do not hit a gas station with the intent of stealing $1. What makes people think that thieves will only steal 1 vote or a 1,000 votes and stop there especially, when there is no effective oversight.
France got rid of mail in ballots in the 1970s after massive fraud,

So sayeth Parrot or a foreign agent wags their tongue like a garrulous old hag about a 1 day record. If you sold stock yesterday, you did good. If you are in for the long term. You could take a bath in the next few months.
12:30 agent did not talk about volume, tends or causes. Some of the point surge is based on a 50/50 senate and the thinking that it will be good. That unfounded options will be sorely tried in the next several months.
Once again 12:309 went for headline jingo-ism. Analysis not so much. !2L390 has a hard time with numbers, function or data analysis in general.
12:30 is a complete and utter idiot of no worth.
... Wait let amend that. 12:30 has an extreme negative worth.
