The Republican candidate, Troy Balderson appeared to take a slim victory over Democratic challenger Danny O’Connor in the state’s 12th district, Milano jumped on Twitter to accuse the Russians and lament the possible outpouring of support for a third-party candidate.
“You know what sucks? Because of our unwillingness to pass policy that protects our election integrity, I immediately think the Green Party votes tonight are Russian Meddling,” she said. “Why else would anyone cast a protest vote in Ohio when there’s so much at stake?”

Re: 2018 Mid-Term Elections
The Ohio Election that everyone is talking about had a great disparity in turn out.
Dems got out 87% of 2016 election
GOP got out 40% of 2016 election
Balderson won by about 1%
Trump won that district by 20%
Not putting too much on this, but it indicates that if the GOP gets a respectable turn out they should do very well this Fall. But folks have to turn out. The Dems put a hard push on that seat and came up short.

Socialist star Ocasio-Cortez strikes out: All endorsed candidates lose Tuesday primaries
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s record on Tuesday night for her chosen primary candidates was as bare as a Venezuelan supermarket shelf.

Prior to the discovery, Republican Troy Balderson led Democrat Danny O’Connor by more than 1,700 votes. With the 588 votes included, the margin narrows to 1,564, according to the Cincinnati Enquirer.

I always think of the great scene in Gangs of New York where its voting day and Tammany Hall is using every form of voter fraud imagined.
Have you seen the actual Total Number of Voters for that District ? I looked a little and didn't find it. The reason I ask is I've seen that Dems had 87-90% of 2016 Voter Turnout, and GOP had 40%. Trump won by 20% in 2016. The numbers look like to me that a bunch of Dems must have voted for Balderson for it to be this close. Don't you think?

Re: 2018 Mid-Term Elections
I think we all have a good handle on what will happen if the Dems win the House, immediate Impeachment for Trump. Pollsters and Pundits in the MSM are predicting 50 new seats for the Dems +/-. I've seen them go as high as 80 seats.
Trump has pointed out that the GOP has won 8 of 9 special elections, and Trump is 5 for 5 when he's campaigned for them. So, what happens if the GOP holds the line or increases their numbers in the House and Senate ?
Will that crush the resistence, will they claim Russian interference what? No one is discussing the outcome if the GOP wins big.

Re: 2018 Mid-Term Elections
They weren't ready last time. They wanted Trump nominated because they thought it meant they were guaranteed a victory. The idea that he could win did not exist in their minds, so they had no plan for what to do if he did.
Helping get Trump nominated was on of their tricks last time. Blocking bernie was another. Both of those tricks ended up burning them.
Maybe they have no fucking idea what they're doing. That could be it. Perez called the commie coffee girl the future of the party, and then every candidate she endorsed lost their primary, so maybe they're a bunch of fucking morons.

Ben Shapiro was making sense about the Commie Coffee Girl and all her ilk. We actually want the Left to go full in behind the radical crazies, because that will then drive away the middle and make it easier for liberty-oriented candidates to be electedOkeefenokee wrote: ↑Thu Aug 09, 2018 12:09 pmThey weren't ready last time.
