This is exactly why turnout is key. A high voter turnout eliminates all of these scenarios and makes it more likely that Democrats win across the board.

Don’t forget Mississippi, where McRacist’s lawyer was on TV a couple weeks ago saying that they would “take the fight past November if that’s what it takes”.

Wey-yull, it’s nice at least to know the One Big Thing: the Republicans’ momentum has been broken. What was once a, ahem, slam dunk, has become a very iffy proposition.
The self-immolation of the GOP has moved from mere loud-mouthery of the Dick Armey and Erick Ericson timbre into actual destruction, in Kansas, in Mississippi and in all the small towns where editors are saying “This isn’t my momma’s or my poppa’s Republican Party.”

While it’s true, Alaska is sparsely populated, that is not the reason election results are slow here.
The reason is, races are so close, and the state has to wait for all the absentee ballots to be counted to decide many races. Anything postmarked by election day is counted, and the state elections office waits two weeks after election day, for ballots from overseas to arrive, before beginning the count.
There’s a phrase you don’t see much anymore: “former Democrat.”
The party-switching has all been going the other way lately.

It won’t drag out. If there is any doubt about any outcome the riech wing jesters of the supreme court will choose their candidate. Remember the village idiot.
