***RYAN beats Molinaro, per NBC!!!

((SUGGESTING NATIONAL picture positive for DEMS!!!))

It's the Catskills! New York's 19th congressional district is located in New York's Catskills and mid-Hudson Valley regions. District 19 lies partially in the northernmost region of the New York metropolitan area and mostly south of Albany. It is currently vacant following the resignation of Democrat Antonio Delgado.

Molinaro was trying to obfuscate on his anti-choice position. The old “settled law” bullshit.

You can’t fool all of the people all of the time, jerk.

He ran for women’s rights and beat the polls by 10+ points. That’s the takeaway here, same as Kansas.

It shows that house control, senate control and key governorships are all on the table for us now. I think the red wave has vanished!

This is a BFD! Republicans are underperforming big time.
