Heitkamp was a big underdog in the polls, but she’s losing by 20 points with 14 percent of precincts reported so far. It’s a very rough night for Democrats in very Trumpy areas.

The assholes in her state were going to punish her for voting against Rape Boy. I knew that all along.

Two apparent losses so far, Indiana and Florida (that has not been called) and losses probably in Missouri and North Dakota. Even if they win Texas, Arizona and Nevada, that’s still a net loss of 1, but it could be a total loss of 4. I guess that’s worst case scenario, though.
