[Legend1104]

lawson winning 51.1% to 48.9%

[tremendoustie]

Whoa!! Go Lawson! Anyone have analysis on the districts reporting -- are they representative?

[isrow]

Awesome, me thinks RP won't be in very many 434-1 votes in this congressional term.

[Bergie Bergeron]

Justin Amash, Ron Paul and BJ Lawson? That would be a dream come true.

[Fr3shjive]

Awesome, me thinks RP won't be in very many 434-1 votes in this congressional term.

430-5, now? haha. What ever, its clear that we've influenced the establishment and they have no choice but to start listening.

[Legend1104]

He is now losing by 1%

[Legend1104]

Wait... they took it back down to 10% reporting in.

Hahahahahhahha .... *snort*chortle ....

Now maybe the people will listen. That's the important goal, and the achievable one. Hopefully the establishment will remain blissfully ignorant until it's too late to stop us.

[nobody's_hero]

Wait... they took it back down to 10% reporting in.

What? :confused: Weird.

[Legend1104]

yeah, he is winning again.

[Indy Vidual]

Now Lawson more than 3% up with 36% reporting!

[RedStripe]

Very close race - the closest one in NC atm

[LibertyBrews]

Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeahhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!

[tremendoustie]

I guess I don't need to send that email asking lawson to give up on his gerrymandered district and move to NH after all.

[Indy Vidual]

Very close race - the closest one in NC atm


Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeahhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!

[Indy Vidual]

[Bergie Bergeron]

[RonPaulCult]

FIFTY PERCENT reporting!

Lawson 51.5% Price 48.5% !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[paulitics]

Yes!!!

[speciallyblend]

anyword on glen's race??

[Bergie Bergeron]

Wake count (80% reporting in there) is redder then the rest of the district so I guess that'd somewhat bad news.....

Nothing on Glen yet.

[RonPaulCult]

This is CRAZY

[RedStripe]

politico has price with a narrow lead atm

[Bergie Bergeron]

Price up .2% :(

[Indy Vidual]

Oh NoZe! Tied: Price up 0.2%

[Dorfsmith]

Amazingly close race. Wow.

[nobody's_hero]

I guess I don't need to send that email asking lawson to give up on his gerrymandered district and move to NH after all.

Well, I wouldn't [necessarily] give up on your idea. I mean, it DID take 22 years to get rid of David Price (if BJ wins, this is coming down to the wire. :eek:)

So while it may be possible to win in a gerrymandered district, I'd like to see changes happen before I'm in a diaper-pooping stage of life again.

[Legend1104]

Now he is losing by .2%. I can't take this.

[Original_Intent]

Lawson down by about 400 votes, 52% returns

[ItsTime]

tied 50/50? Seriously I never thought it would be this close!

[trey4sports]

unfortunately it looks as though the heavily blue areas have yet to report...

[nobody's_hero]

I'm closing my eyes. Tell me when it's over.

[Omphfullas Zamboni]

I'm closing my eyes. Tell me when it's over.

I'm with you.*Suspense.*

[MRoCkEd]

Well, we had a good run.

[RonPaulCult]

unfortunately it looks as though the heavily blue areas have yet to report...

Where are you seeing this?

[Legend1104]

Where are you seeing this?

This^^

[Legend1104]

He is winning again!!!

[Anti Federalist]

He is winning again!!!

FFS...coffee please.

And somebody get me a goddamned cigarette...

[trey4sports]

there are a couple threads (somewhere) on RPF that show who's reported and who has yet to report.

[Indy Vidual]

Tied again BJ +390 votes

[RonPaulCult]

Ok - I think people are looking at CNN's results, which break it down by county.

If you look at the results there, it is one county that has reported more than the other 3. BJ did VERY well in that county.

But apparently the other three are more liberal.

This may not be as close as it appears.

I don't smoke but I could use a cigarette. This is intense.

In 2008, Lawson received 49% of the vote in Wake country (his best showing). Right now, with 94% of the Wake County precincts reporting, Lawson has 57% of the vote.

However, the results from the the other 3 counties are far more likely to vote for a Democrat, and as such, the results aren't nearly as good as they seem.

I hate to be a downer but this is a reality. We'll wait and see but don't expect too much.

From PPP: David Price is *not* in trouble. Nothing in from Durham County yet. He will win big there

[apropos]

Fuck this shit, he should find a better district.

Yep. He could be entering his third year of Congress in any normal district. Why NC4 I don't know.

[Legend1104]

Dude, you're reading the 2008 results.

Yeah I was wondering because I am watching politico right now.

[RileyE104]

Lawson is currently losing by 6.8% with 46.2% of the vote... :(

[Legend1104]

[BuddyRey]
