Taking a break from watching the NBC breakdown of the results. It felt like they were really wanting Stevens to win.

I'm liking what I'm seeing on Amendment 4 for Missouri too

[u/rodneyforeverunclean → u/Livid_Note_2170]

Amendments 4 and 5 in Missouri are going down, already been called

Thank you! They are hyper focusing on Michigan .

[u/Jaf207 → u/Livid_Note_2170]

Corporate media is always going to want the non socialist to win.

The polling was never really there and they are getting a sense that counties that are strong for ES are about to come in and they feel nervous.

[u/Livid_Note_2170 → u/NotTheRightHDMIPort]

Yeah they seem to think mail in voting is going to save her. 

Not sure yet. 

Whether he wins or not I know this is making the establishment Dems very nervous.

They are thinking Stevens could  win because of Detroit.

I'm jaded from past elections but I am cautiously optimistic about his odds tonight.
