But the NYT hasn't officially called it yet.

11. Does "move to tossup"mean that they also think she's more electable?

I wondered.

[Cha]

12. Yeah, that was interesting.. Sounded like

it, though.

It will be so Cool if she WINS.. she made the first hurdle and it was an edge of the seater!

13. I don't know the demographics of that district

Honestly I'm in Illinois not Kansas, but the fact that Hillary won it and Democrats are competitive in districts like OH 12 that Trump won by 11 has to mean she has a good shot in November!

[Cha]

16. Yeah, Hillary won District 3 Kansas.. so we

know that says a LOT!

22. "Moved to tossup" says it! GO, DEMOCRATS!

6. Mahalo, goldie!

I can't believe this!!!!

[jcgoldie]

8. De Nada!

I'm very excited for her as well!

[Cha]

10. It's been a Wild Ride! At first I was

resigned that she wasn't going to win.. then the news came that she was catching up and then she had a small lead at some point.. but who knew how that would turn out?!

And, NOW! Sharice!

[George II]

14. It's been a good few days. Sunday night the Yankees took a 3 run lead into the 9th inning...

...so I turned it off and went to bed. Woke up to find out the Red Sox tied the score in the bottom of the 9th and won in the 10th.

Last night I went to bed thinking she was close was would lose. Woke up to find this! MUCH better than a baseball score.

[Cha]

17. Oh I know!.. I imagine so many of us

on an emotional roller coaster Ride! I was doing reverse psychology, praying, sending love vibes to Sharice for the Win.. anything I could of!

Good News about the Red Sox, too!

[George II]

18. She ran an upbeat, clean campaign against smears and out of towners. And WON.

[Cha]

20. Yes She Did! Sharice had so many wonderful

people in her corner!

[joshcryer]

24. Exactly! She never once went negative!

She ran a wonderful campaign even as people who never even lived in KS fought against her.

[Gothmog]

19. Yeah
