I need all of you to power down for like 48 hours. Take a nap. Touch some grass. Quiet time.

Fitzpatrick spent all year painting Harvie as a hothead (I must've seen a clip of him going "I'll be done when I'm done!" 300,000 times) but maybe an angry electorate saw themselves. Meanwhile, Fitzpatrick was talking about Washington crossing the Delaware teapaw.org/nick_field90/status/21…

Brian Fitzpatrick was used to running his campaigns a certain way: Nuke your opponent and tout your endorsements. But this year his opponent was a local elected official and the electorate wanted a change, anti-establishment candidate teapaw.org/fallonroth_/status/211…

Democrat Aaron Ford will be Nevada's next governor after easily defeating Republican incumbent Joe Lombardo. He'll become the first Black governor in Nevada history — and the first in any state west of the Mississippi River. – at Las Vegas, NV

So it is possible after tonight (if TBT holds on in CD2) that NV will have an entirely Dem congressional delegation and an entirely Dem roster of constitutional offices. And an Assembly Dem supermajority and a state Senate one vote short of a Dem supermajority. That is BLUE.

Three years ago, @NVDemsChair called me and asked me to come to Nevada with two goals: 1. Defeat @JoeLombardoNV and 2. Elect the first Black governor West of the Mississippi. Madam Chair, mission complete. Mission a success.

Tonight, Bucks County showed up to reject the chaos, cruelty, and corruption in Washington — and to vote for a public servant who knows what it means to show up, deliver for his community, and get things done. Congratulations, Congressman-elect @BobHarvie_PA01!

This has been a disastrous day for Nevada Republicans. They had a big deficit going in, needed to win Clark by a lot -- they lost Clark. They needed to win the state by double digits today -- they did not. The wave cometh. Only ? is how deep it goes, how many Repubs lose.

Only 3 hours left, GOP continues to lose ground in Clark, almost dead even. The Dem lead has fallen by a third today, but that's not nearly enough to save most Republicans. It's still 31K. Gov needs the AG to be bleeding Ds in Clark or he is a one-termer. The firewall is 68K.
