(3,590 posts)Remington is usually about 4.9 points off. The race is about tied according to 538 and that is, fwiw, my sense of things as well. Sinclair may need to divest KPLR to do the other deal with Meridith?.
It is anyone's race as of tonight. It all depends on who can GOTV.

How much McCaskill can get her base out in urban KC and STL
How much McCaskill can minimize her losses in rural MO, it doesn't look the minitRump Hawley will be over performing in KC and STL
