Not sure but here's an interesting fact: the independents broke for Democrats, contrary to all the BS we heard from various (perhaps GOP) polls before the election:

We' ll see if the trend among independents contnues with close elections in Az right now...

That said, I don't think fiscal conservatives have an interest in a fiscal conservative like Whitmer unless she happened to have a "r" by her name since that's the measure of their fiscal conservativity...

Couple of more days like today in the market, and I might just buy one of these so I can vote against your gal Lauren in two years!  shocked
I'll take your word for it, Jim. But the kind of electorate that would put a candidate like Boebert into office has to questioned. If they're not all hard core MAGA types, and there's no doubt that a lot of them are, then, perhaps, there's an influx of evangelicals that make up the rest and don't care who they elect as long as they elect somebody, and in this case misguidedly believe, whom they think reflects their "family values"...

Coming back on topic, here's the latest on the counties in Az that haven't fully reported at this time:
https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/3729390-here-are-the-counties-to-watch-as-lake-and-hobbs-go-down-to-wire-in-arizona/
From my read, it looks like they're Democratic leaning areas from what it indicates....

The first problem with your statement above was that you started out by saying "From my read", which indicates massive confusion right off the bat!  smile

THAT, coming from the guy who said the Democrats were going to be decimated by a red wave...

GREG needs to get out and vote on Dec 6.  He needs to vote 50,000 X.

That would assure a Walker win!!   grin
The Libertarian candidate won about 2% of the vote so the runoff victory may hinge upon whom he endorses...

I don't where Greg got the idea that "they called it too soon" in the Georgia senate race. The only thing I heard on CNN and MSNBC was it was too close to call early on and, later, it would be going to a runoff. Neither station called the race for either candidate.

Lol!  It's Greg's typical no-name site or citation. Goes along with his M.O.
But, you'll vote for Walker anyway, same M.O. there, too as with Trump:  "I Don't like the man but I like his policies" BS...

The only ones here that are full of it are you and your typically unnamed "source" that supposedly called the election for Walker. That much is obvious...
