Early voting turnout in Maryland has been insane. More than double 2014. I think we may be underestimating people posting a protest vote against the GOP especially in a state where Dems outnumber GOP 2-1.

I canvassed last weekend and even though Ben doesn't have a lot of visibility due to not having the money Hogan has, a lot of people say they can't vote for a Republican right now. The Trump effect is real here.


My wife is a Howard County teacher. Jealous winning would be a win for public county schools in MD and would in turn benefit students and teachers alike. Hoping this dude pulls through.

My cousin is a teacher in MoCo... the teachers by and large are going all in for Ben. I hope he wins. Insha'Allah!

Going by 538:
House - Dems get 235
Senate - Dems win all lean and toss ups and Beto shocks the world. 51 seats
Governor - Trillum, Abrams, and whole bunch of others Dems win. They're giving Jealous a . 8% chance of winning. Love the optimism but I don't see it happening. Yall on the streets tho so what do I know?

I have a bad feeling we're going to see a level of cheating and fukkery from the repubs, that we've never seen before. I can't get excited just yet. That said no matter what happens I think Beto will upset Ted Cruz. Her is so disliked even the repubs won't cheat to let him win

Dems aren't projected to narrowly control the house, they are projected to control it by a lot.. so with that, IF the Dems don't regain the house then you can throw out polling completely. 2016 was an "aberration" they said because it's Trump and he narrowly won a few of the Rust Belt states.

Well, there's nothing "narrow" about most of these races in the house, Dems have solid numbers up and down so let's see if polling redeems itself :comeon:


I don't know about polling these days dog, most people just hang up the phone.

I think the Dems will take the House. The Senate? I don't know. I'm also concerned with governor races. Dems need to flip some seats there. There are too many Republican governors, and if we don't get some of them out, Republicans will eventually have the numbers to petition a Constitutional Convention under Article 5.

If Dems don’t control at least the house and flip a few governorships I’ll probably stop voting for the foreseeable future.

:manny:

I’ll accept America is at the mercy of uneducated, reactionary, vile, bigots and focus only me.
