Uh guys, isn't there's a special election tonight?

Why doesn't DU have the usual enthusiasm that it has when there's an election going on. Why aren't there 100 threads tracking the results, etc. etc.

COME ON GUYS, if Busby wins (especially outright), we are not only one seat closer to a majority in the house, but it sends a clear message about how the GOP is in deep shit.

I'm excited!!!!! :bounce:

Why isn't everybody else?

1. Do you have a link to it? LOL.

5. For results?

Someone posted on in the California forum, but it's the official one so it may be slow. The media outlets usually track faster (and make more mistakes) but it doesn't seem like the media is even paying attention to this race.

3. Yep.

Polls close in about 15 minutes. My daughter's poll watching and I'm sure I'll be hearing from her soon. No idea at this point how the numbers are looking.

I just got on the computer to see if any results were in.

7. Yep. California. Duke's seat. Francine Busby. But polls don't close

there for another 10 or so minutes, I think.

[Hippo_Tron]

11. Yea, I did kinda forget that it is on the west coast

But still, usually DU has plenty of threads before the polls close.

A brilliant damned writer.

Also, Barbara Radnofsky vanquished her name-game opponent in the US Senate primary runoff.
