Henry Cuellar is hanging on to a 200 vote lead in TX-28. If he loses, that seat is likely a goner for Democrats.
Henry Cuellar pulled a Trump and did better than expected in Election Day vote in TX-28.

The largest vote outstanding is in a county Trump won, becoming the first Republican to do so in a century.

That bodes well for Cuellar. But he'll have to face Garcia, who is formidable.
And there it is. Cuellar takes a near 800-vote lead over Cisneros. Zapata came through for him.
Leftist DEM Jessica Cisneros has retaken a slight lead over Centrist DEM Henry Cuellar, < 100 votes in #TX28. Republicans should HOPE and PRAY she holds it.
Well, folks, #TX28 is coming down to a photo finish.

Cuellar: 22,693
Cisneros: 22,508

What's left? Her best area. Bexar.
There you have it. Bexar did not come through for Cisneros, the lefty challenger to the more moderate Cuellar in #TX28.

It came down to 174 votes, folks.

Could be a surprise, but never let anyone tell you that your vote does not matter.

This is a senior editor at @washingtonpost, folks.

Either you don't know what "AR" stands for—or, you are intentionally lying to readers OR... both.

P.S. ArmaLite, Inc. was founded in 1954.

The anti-gun society's ignorance of 2A issues and firearms in general, is astonishing.
But I suppose it's easier for the firearm-ignorant media to attack ArmaLite, Inc. and other gun manufacturers while completely fudging the history of firearms instead of acknowledging your own role in the inspiration of mass shootings in this country.
As recent as 2015, Mark Follman and Becca Andrews for @MotherJones were still doing the right thing, and acknowledging that media inspire mass shootings.

They cited many of the same studies/law enforcement officials as we did.

On May 14, I tweeted studies on how irresponsible media coverage of mass shootings inspires others, and further, that media have long known this but they do NOT care.

"Contagion in Mass Killings and School Shootings" spec. cites a 13-day media contagion period.

It's Day 10.
If you simply take a few to read the studies I cited, you'll see the claim above is 100% true.

Media do inspire these shootings and they know it, but don't care.

Worse, they know contagion periods lead to even deadlier events, but ideology comes first. peoplespunditdaily.com/policy/2018/03…
This is exactly how law enforcement and academia have been telling media outlets to handle mass shootings for years, to include everyone from the FBI to Ivy League.

Those are their homies and yet they still ignore them because for media, ideology first.

Coming 🔜: The percentage of voters who believe at least some UFOs/UAPs can be attributed to extraterrestrial intelligence visiting the Earth has increased again this year, despite 1) those claiming a personal sighting was largely unchanged and 2) voters holding more REP views. Image
More 🔜: The increase in percentage of those who believe UFOs/UAPs are --> 👽 might also be fueled by a significant increase from the 58.6% who said last year that they "believe intelligent lifeforms exist elsewhere in the universe".
🆕➡️: Annual UFOs / UAPs Survey Results Are Out!

This year, 42.6% of voters believe at least some sightings can be attributed to extraterrestrial intelligence visiting Earth, ⬆️ again from 38.5% last year.

In April 2018, that number was just 31.1%. application.marketsight.com/app/ItemView.a… Image

Oz just beat McCormick in 809 votes tallied in 21 of the 31 precincts from...

Allegheny County.

That's McCormick's base.

Oz 316
McCormick 288

This increases @DrOz's lead to 1,115.
I cannot stress enough how much that last batch of votes was a blow to Team McCormick.

Folks, all of their hopes were handing on in Allegheny County and @DrOz just beat him in Election Day vote from 21 of the 31 remaining precincts.

Devastating to McCormick.
McCormick in third in first batch of provisionals. They're splitting between Barnette and Oz.

If you're going to author a political analysis piece, steer clear of economic punditry.

"To be fair, when it comes to reducing inflation, it's up to the Fed, not Congress or the White House, to solve it."

That is patently false, as were gas price claims.
cookpolitical.com/analysis/natio…
Inflation, which is caused by printing supply, which the Biden Administration did, was primarily fueled by energy and food prices, both being the product of government policy.

Looking only to the Fed was and is foolish. They're a one-trick pony and they waited too late.

...
Food shortages were caused by bottle-necking the supply chain and the stupid plan to put government imposed restrictions on commerce to deal with a pandemic.

Fearing risk to inventory buildup grew under Joe Biden, as the ISM panel clearly showed.

In the end...
