House.

A few years back there was a republican effort to put on our propositions, an attempt to split the state into two.

Fortunately, it was soundly defeated.

What is frustrating to me is after two recalls attempts in recent years of Democratic Governors, Gray Davis and Gavin Newsom, mostly because of our low threshold requirement for signatures, that the California legislature still hasn't increased that threshold

People were pissed. So many thanked me for what I was doing.

a 1-seat Senate loss would keep the status quo (this is assuming Warnock wins a runoff and Kelly keeps his seat). But it wouldn't be the "51" that we were aiming for as a min.

Clark County (Las Vegas) and if they go 2-1 for Cortez-Masto as the early votes did, she will win. But they have until Saturday to finish counting them. So it's going to be a ling week. Possible runoff election...?

Whoever has more votes, wins, no matter the percentage.

Also, my understanding is that ballots received by Saturday (and postmarked by Election Day) will be counted. So if there's a lot of that, it might take even longer. I'm hoping CCM pulls ahead based on what's already arrived and still uncounted.

Mail in is heavy slanted DEM. Don't forget Washoe County. Clark might be the biggest county but they aren't the only game in the state!

Exactly what I'm thinking. If we win both AZ and NV, I think we end up with 51 Senators. I feel sure Warnock will win his run-off.
