Holy skitshi 12th District of Ohio to close to call!!! A solid RED district!

[toobfreak]

It is getting closer

We shall see

Like I said days ago: the Left will miraculously "find" a bunch of "lost" votes in someones "trunk" at the last second whenever a race is close enough to challenge, and they will drag it out for weeks. Then they will bring in Al Gore with 55 attorneys to try every legal trick in the book looking for hanging chads. It is the only way Dems ever win anything. Provisional ballots and all the rest: inventions by the Left so that they can manufacture election victories when all else fails.

It worked for Al Franken.

A republican secretary of state oversees elections in Ohio. Your insane conspiracy bullshit is sadly common with republicans nowadays, as they have no personal responsibility and make up their own "facts".

Well if this isn't the writing on the wall for Republicans this coming November, I don't what is. We've seen several special elections won by Democrats over the last year where Democrats don't normally win. You can go to this link for an overview with links and pictures.
Blue wave coming this November 2018

In 2016 this same district was won handidly by the Republican--as expected
Pat Tiberi* Republican 251,266 66.6%
Ed Albertson Democrat 112,638 29.8
Joe Manchik Green 13,474 3.6
Ohio U.S. House 12th District Results: Pat Tiberi Wins

Tonight the special election it looks like this:
Balderson Rep 101,574. 50.2%
Connor Dem. 99,820 49.3% a difference of 1700 votes. Now for you left wingers that voted for a 3rd party in this race who took 1000 votes away from Connor you should be kicking yourselves in the ass right now.
5000 mail in ballots to be counted yet.

Just to note that this is and has always been a solid Republican district. This district should not have even made the news tonight, but it's been on the news all night.

Trump has already taken credit for this "yuuuuuge" win--

"When I decided to go to Ohio for Troy Balderson, he was down in early voting 64 to 36. That was not good. After my speech on Saturday night, there was a big turn for the better. Now Troy wins a great victory during a very tough time of the year for voting. He will win BIG in Nov."

Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) | Twitter

Now it's still expected that Republican Balderson will win this race by the skin of his teeth. But these yuuuuge swings in these special elections are a tell tale sign of what's coming. When you can't get Republicans to vote for the Republican there are serious problems on the horizon.

I think I can, I think [emoji848] I can.......
WRONG.

Okay, so this topic is about Ohio's 12th District of Ohio and the impact and influence Trump has had on this election.

Clearly this election is a close run thing because of Trump. Had Trump not been so divisive then the Republicans would have won this election by a mile, again.

The repercussions for November are clearly there. If Republicans can concentrate on one election and pour money in, they can save 2/3 majorities, just. Anything less than this will be a slaughter.

Trump will then clearly lose the House, which means he'll never get anything done for the next two years, putting his presidency in jeopardy.

150k republicans didn’t vote. And the left still lost the special election

Ohio Republicans have the worst liability possible in their corner as well: John Kasich, governor. When you look up RINO, it has a picture of John in the article.

We all knew that democrats would act like they won even if they lost.

/----/ I was just reading this and proves your point.

Anti-Trump media manages to spin electoral victories into defeats

Journalists also talked a lot about a “blue wave” and “a major sign of trouble for Republicans” before the votes were counted. Politico wrote of “Democrats surging.” Sort of like what they predicted back in 2016 when they said President Hillary Clinton would be occupying the Oval Office in January 2017.

They were wrong this time, too.

That didn’t stop the typical spin. CNBC’s John Harwood used Twitter to say winning was a sign the GOP was going to lose in November. He retweeted a comment saying, “it’s hard to remember when so many victories were such a bad omen going into November.” Harwood even claimed the “GOP has a corruption problem in mid-term elections.”
