I can’t get my hopes too high but we just might be able to lose Ted Cruz! I see that one is close. But WV is gone, and Ohio seems uphill. Haven’t checked on PA but that one might be tough.

Oh yeah! It will be a gargantuan task to keep the senate. Totally awesome if it happens though!Tester is also going to be hard to keep.
I live in PA. Bob Casey - D has a decent lead over Dave McCormack - RI can’t get my hopes too high but we just might be able to lose Ted Cruz! I see that one is close. But WV is gone, and Ohio seems uphill. Haven’t checked on PA but that one might be tough.
I see nonstop Hogan ads, and I think I've maybe seen one Alsobrooks ad. I have no idea what the fuck her campaign is doing.I don't think Cruz will be at all close with Texas voters seeing their favorite Orange Rapist Felon on the same ballot.
MD worries me more and more, each week, but it's the opposite effect that Kamala will run away here with probably one of the highest margins by state, so hopefully the helps Alsobrooks eek it out. Hogan is insanely popular, including among black voters in the state. No one outside of PG County even knows who Alsobrooks is, up until probably 6 months ago.
Hogan is certainly the strongest candidate the GOP could have run but polling indicates he’s going to lose.I don't think Cruz will be at all close with Texas voters seeing their favorite Orange Rapist Felon on the same ballot.

McCormack favors abortion ban no exceptions
I dunno, I'm getting really bad vibes about this race. I know I know, vibes and all, but still. Hogan is an enigma in this state and Alsobrooks is nowhere to be found. It honestly seems like she's trying to lose. Or maybe they've just written off the entire Eastern Shore and that's why I don't see any Alsobrooks ads.Hogan is certainly the strongest candidate the GOP could have run but polling indicates he’s going to lose.
I also don’t think it will end up mattering much as races don’t exist in isolation. If you just look at the MD race it’s possible Hogan could win, if not particularly likely. If Hogan wins or not primarily matters is Harris is president because if Trump wins Hogan is the least of our problems. If you look at the MD race, conditional on the idea that Harris has won the presidency, Hogan is overwhelmingly likely to lose.
Seems like if you win the DMV you win the state...I dunno, I'm getting really bad vibes about this race. I know I know, vibes and all, but still.

I don't know - what I can say is that generally speaking Alsobrooks is up in the polls (+5 in the most recent survey released today). As I said though, this is primarily of concern if Harris wins because if Trump wins that nearly certainly means Republicans control the Senate with or without Hogan. If she wins though, as races are correlated, that means Alsobrooks is highly likely to win.I dunno, I'm getting really bad vibes about this race. I know I know, vibes and all, but still.

As someone who grew up with a lot of family on the Eastern Shore in the Federalsburg area I can see how someone might think that, haha. I still remember my great uncle there being the sweetest guy ever who would also occasionally opine to a ten year old about the fact that communists had infiltrated every level of the US government.Or maybe they've just written off the entire Eastern Shore and that's why I don't see any Alsobrooks ads.
If Trump wins I think it is highly likely that Republicans pick up at least one Senate seat that's not in Maryland. If that's the case then Hogan's election doesn't matter much.Don't know, if the orange monkey were to somehow win, I see a split ticket going down ballot.

Mastriano for governor was the best! Thank you Donald!Fortunately the Rs have yet another crop of shitty Senate candidates because their primary voters are insane. Really been nice to watch them blow winnable race after winnable race the past couple cycles.
How's he an enigma? Popular former governor and although the odds are against him, he probably still has a 20% chance.I dunno, I'm getting really bad vibes about this race.

Anything is possible but it overall the odds are at a 50/50 Senate. But there will be no manchin or synema in that 50How's he an enigma? Popular former governor and although the odds are against him, he probably still has a 20% chance.
Seems like a 50/50 Senate is about the best Dems can hope for:

To the Republicans, being an asshole is a feature, not a bug.Since when has being an asshole fucked Republicans over?
Never.
Other than covid in which case their own base started dying faster than dems.
And this is fine because those two are dead weight and simply would derail everything which has the same effect as an R controlled Senate.Anything is possible but it overall the odds are at a 50/50 Senate. But there will be no manchin or synema in that 50
Nonsense. Manchin is a DINO, but he helped enact Joe Biden's agenda through 2022.And this is fine because those two are dead weight and simply would derail everything which has the same effect as an R controlled Senate.
yeah yeah his vote was needed for covid recovery act and infrastructure. But he blocked far far more. If Biden was able to do everything he wanted, he’d get a Reagan landslide re-electionNonsense. Manchin is a DINO, but he helped enact Joe Biden's agenda through 2022.
