    He claimed victory, but the race is still not called.

    Rogers told his people to go home.

      Yeah, Rogers very pointedly has not conceded.

      In the end, that doesn’t mean El-Sayed hasn’t won, just that we were all correct in thinking Rogers really is that much of a dick, and now we have to wait it out to find out just how much of a dick he plans to be about it.

      Or to put it another way, there’s a Senate race in Mississippi that The Guardian has at a mere 20 vote difference right now; I wouldn’t concede that either. But that’s not the case in Michigan.

        Texas wasnt a huge surprise. Kansas is kind of out of the blue, just a Republican in blue paint. Fucking Mississippi though? Now thats a shocker

          Yeah that one smells fucky through and through. We’ll see how it plays out I guess.
