Democratic #PA18 Rep. Mike Doyle, dean of Pennsylvania’s Congressional delegation, will announce his plans this afternoon on whether he’s running for a 15-term in 2022 or retire from his Pittsburgh-area House district.
Doyle (D-PA), the Congressional Democrats' baseball team manager: "I believe the time has come to pass the torch to the next generation...I will not be a candidate for Congress in 2022 and plan to retire at the end of my current term." doyle.house.gov/media/press-re…
Hoyer:“Mike’s presence in the House will be greatly missed,not only by those from Western Pennsylvania but by his colleagues on both sides of the aisle.Surely, the Members on our Democratic Congressional Baseball Team will be heartbroken to lose their longtime manager and coach."

Here's the fully functional pro-QAnon Facebook page of Rick Saccone, who stormed the Capitol.

Is Saccone a random dude? No. He's a former Air Force counterintelligence officer who came within 800 votes of winning a seat in Congress as the 2018 GOP nominee for #PA18. Image
We've spent most of the past four years focusing on the words/actions of one person. But perhaps at the expense of how even trusted figures in communities have become radicalized by falsehoods ripping through the internet/social media at warp speed.
Why haven't @GOPLeader & others publicly acknowledged the election outcome even though he has no doubt as to the result?

Because he & other conference leaders are fearful of being overthrown by members/voters who believe it was stolen. Until that changes, their posture won't.

If Haaland is confirmed, it would trigger a special election in #NM01, which voted for Biden by 23 points, per @DKElections.

In 15 U.S. House special elections from 2017 to 2020, the maximum deviation from a district's presidential results was 21 points.

Image
Democrats would start out as strong favorites to keep Haaland's #NM01 district (Biden +23).

There are several examples of Democrats overperforming by close to that margin in special elections - #KS04 (+21), #PA18 (+20), #NY27 (+19).

But the GOP would have to do even better.
For Republicans to pull off a massive upset in a #NM01 special election, they'd probably need:

- A strongly pro-Republican political environment
- Latino turnout collapses in a district where they are ~43% of eligible voters
- Latinos that do show up shift towards Republicans

Welcome to the Pennsylvania member of Congress Tracking Report for the week ending March 22, 2020. We are doing things a bit differently this week. All of our content centers on the #COVID19 #coronavirus pandemic.
#MoCTrack 1/28
demcastusa.com/2020/03/22/pen…
First up, we have a recap of HR 6201, the #FamiliesFirst bill that was passed on Wednesday by the Senate and signed into law.
#MoCTrack 2/28
npr.org/2020/03/19/818…
If you have a chance, check out the #MoCTrack recap of the #FamiliesFirst action in the Senate. There were three attempts to amend the bill (1 good, 2 awful), and it is worth seeing ow our lawmakers voted on those efforts.

If you’d like a reminder of where things left off when our MoCs left for recess, check out the Trump Tracker numbers, courtesy of the find folks at @538Politics. It gauges how much your MoC votes in line with the Trump Admin's agenda.

@538politics The rest of this report is a bit different than our normal offering.

We’ve pulled together info on official website statements, public appearances, town halls, tweets and quotes that each of our 20 MoCs made over the recess.

On election day in #PA18 special election, @nytimes explained how election-night forecasting device “The Needle” worked & explained the near certainty it will be “wrong” at some point (if by wrong you mean the candidate the needle favors eventually loses). nytimes.com/2018/03/13/ups…
“All hail the needle!” – In Dec. AL Senate election, @nytimes needle had eventual winner, Jones, at 62% to win (based on Democratic-heavy precincts yet to report) when Moore was ahead by 8 points with 2/3 of precincts counted.

Article by @Nate_Cohn @jshkatz Image
Remember, “90% likely” is also an estimate that it won’t happen 10%. @nytimes reports the difficulties explaining probabilities in a world of “right” and “wrong.” Image

THREAD: @SecretaryZinke’s hearing before @NatResources / @NRDems starts in 5 min. Live tweets and fact-checks below. Stream:
First up: @RepRobBishop thanks Zinke for focusing on "core" functions rather than "special interest groups." Translation: "Core" = oil, gas, uranium companies. "Special interest" = public input.
Next up, welcome from @RepRaulGrijalva, promising to "exercise oversight responsibilities." Intends to focus on Zinke's "stewardship of taxpayer dollars" in light of Zinke's proposed budget cuts. First mention of Zinke's $139,000 door.

1. You’ve probably seen articles like this today and, hopefully, you’re reading them — and not just for the joy of watching the #GOP squirm at a squeaking defeat in what should’ve been a GOP blowout. The reactions of the opposition are strategic clues. apple.news/AmbTmoZhNTRqtK…
2. Particularly, I want to draw your attention to this statement from Paul Ryan. Basically, he’s pointing out that because Lamb didn’t have a primary opponent, he was able to run as a more conservative Dem which allowed him to win a district DT won by 20 pts.
3. Let’s unpack that a little. Two things are implied here. One, they know that GOP (and their support of DT) is frowned on enough that there is willingness to vote Dem in red districts with palatable messaging (moderate, willingness to work in a bipartisan manner).

Wow, less than 100 votes currently separating Lamb and Saccone in #PA18
Allegheny has reported its absentee votes -- Lamb won about 62% of them
Still waiting on absentee results in Westmoreland. Washington County just informed us they're also counting absentees tonight, but it might take a few hours...

27% in now. Unclear if Lamb can pull this off. He’s running out of votes in Allegheny
Not sure if anyone else is seeing this or my data is messed up, but pretty interesting nugget — seems like Clinton precincts are voting a little worse for Lamb than her, but turning out much more. R precincts going more for Saccone than Trump, but voting far less.
This is a story of turnout

TONIGHT is the much-hyped #pa18 race between @ConorLambPA and @Saccone4PA18. Who’s going to win? Predictions and results: [THREAD]

thecrosstab.com/2018/03/13/pa-…
Before 8PM rolls around, I want to cover what the data say to expect in this contest. This thread will start off running through my predictions, will cover how I’m projecting the race, and will turn into a live blog with graphics when the votes start to come in.
There are multiple ways to predict an election. Polls, geographic data, demographic data, etc are all useful. I’m going to run through what all these measurements could predict in #pa18. Spoiler: it’s a mixed bag for both Lamb and Saccone.
