MSNBC: Jon Tester has taken the lead, and appears to have secured reelection

[sandensea]

With 99% of the vote in, Senator Tester has taken a 2,030 vote lead over Matt Rosendale.

Most of the remaining vote is reportedly from Democratic-leaning counties.

Go, Jon!

1. Wonderful

[YessirAtsaFact]

2. Good! Trump hates him, so that makes it so much sweeter

All of Trump's Montana rallies make is that much sweeter as well!

[Zambero]

3. Amen to that!

Trump was irked that Tester had called out Trump's unqualified VA nominee, who subsequently withdrew. Apparently more than a few Montanans saw through the bullshit.

20. YES! & trump went to Montana

4 times to defile their state.. and he couldn't close the deal

8. Great news! n/t

[Codeine]

10. I just received a News Flash. Jon Tester re-elected!

[AlexSFCA]

11. good news, still waiting for AZ

[sandensea]

19. It looks good

McSilly is up by just a hair - and a million provisionals and absentees remain to be counted.

Barring any shenanigans (very possible, given Governor Douchey), they should put Sinema over the top.

[calimary]

12. Yeah, that one's been nerve-wracking.

Looks like we keep that one, fortunately enough.

[SunSeeker]

13. Yay!!

[malaise]

14. I wanted this so bad

Just to shut up this braggadocios MAGAcretin.

[orleans]

16. They sent ALL the trumps to Montana for this one - YES!! Such a good Senator!

[MontanaMama]

17. I can't even believe it.

Breathing a huge sigh of relief. We NEEDED this so badly.

[Awsi Dooger]

18. Awesome news but I feel guilty for abandoning Tester and going to sleep

Unlike 2006. I'm sure many here will remember 2006. We stayed up all night and sweated out Tester's late unlikely rally against Conrad Burns, the Simpsons guy.

Lengthy thread with nervous post after nervous post. Then joy early Wednesday when it finally looked good.

As a Miamian I would have stayed up for Tester last night if Gillum had won. That's my excuse and I don't apologize. I'm supposed to play golf tomorrow but have already canceled. No energy.
