Pasch clinging to narrow lead (with 68% in) - 51-49 over Alberta Walker's Darling

[Divine Discontent]

Pasch seems like an incredible human being, hearing about her tonight in the reports. Darling being so close to Walker, sure makes me hope Pasch can get a boost still late to win this outright despite Darling closing the 57-43 lead down to 51-49 in trailing Pasch.

1. Will they find missing votes in Waukesha Cty again? I'm nervous.

2. It was 55-45 five minutes ago.

Hopefully, that was Darling's wad.

3. hey, RIF! yes, hopefully that's all she's got. I don't like that nothing was heard for a while,

then boom, it's neck and neck.

Still impressed with WI. This is great to see, and of course, it's only a success if 3 get in, however, it's a good sign to see GOP districts fall!

4. Why are these races so tight?

I think it might have something to do with racism - the President is non-white. What else could explain why poor, middle class whites are motivated to vote against policies that would devastate themselves? Racism is a tricky thi.g. It tricks you into letting your guard down to those who do you harm, as well as, block you from those who may help you.

people will vote against their own interests if they have bigotry in their hearts. :/

5. Walker has an eighty-seven percent approval rating with Republicans.

AND the GOP gets out the vote. These are heavily Republican districts and incumbents.

6. yep. they adore his war on the middle class.
