1. Kate Brown. Yea. I was a little concerned but really glad she won.

2. Where are you seeing that she won?

[Wintryjade]

3. Isn't that what this Op is saying? Am I confused?

[ZZenith]

7. Polls closed 20 minutes ago - hadn't seen any results yet, but it's looking good.

I would have been inconsolable had she lost.

4. Buehler? Buehler? Anyone?

[Wintryjade]

6. I do not get it.

Did I get something wrong?

8. It's a line from Ferris Bueller's Day Off, often used when someone is left w/ nothing to say

The (defeated) Republican candidate in Oregon happenned to be a guy called Knute Buehler.

9. Oh. Thanks. I thought you were saying I was clueless. And after the other poster, I was totally

confused. Real Bueller time. Hey, I heard an ad the last week from the guy. It was someone going after Brown, stating at the end he was a Democrat, but was voting for Buehler. All week, when it would come on, I would have to switch off my radio. I really started being concerned.

Thanks.

11. My apologies, Wintryjade.

Sometimes I try to wax comical, only to end up in a misunderstanding.

That said, I think Dems did what they needed to do: take back either one of the chambers.

Adam Schiff, as it happens, is speaking on msnbc right now. He'll have a busy year going forward.

12. You were great, and funny. Love my Bueller.

[sandensea]

13. Thanks!

10. Cox is ahead of Newsom (50.8% to 49.2) with a whopping 2% of the vote counter

I better start sharpening my Seppuku

14. The blue wall of the west coast. Living on the left coast is the only thing keeping me sane.
