Collins, Graham and McConnell in big trouble

Aside from the big show, these are my big 3 races I have been focused on and donating money to. It is looking really good. We either lead or are in striking distance. When Trump loses and these three go down, that will be a back breaker that will stomp out the Trump scourge forever. I want to win these races SO DAMN BAD!

Gideon 47
Collins 43

Harris 44
Graham 44

McConnell 49
McGrath 44

but the other two aren't. SC and KY are GOP states and those undecided (12 in SC and 7 in KY) will vote mostly GOP. I do think Gideon has a good shot since there is a third candidate in that race whose votes will get reassigned to their second choice who is almost certainly her.

Aside from Maine, I never expected to be anywhere this close. But if this is the blue tsunami I think it’s going to be, you never know. How delicious would it be to see these three get their walking papers.

...only because he was running against the biggest idiot in the state in Bevin. If Bevin had simply kept his mouth shut and ran ads, he would have won. McConnell is a far more polished politician. He won't lose, IMO.
