2018 Midterms: Gerrymandering to Victory b/w Blue Wave, Red Pill

Eh, it's not really a well written law as far as ER nurses are concerned though.

We didn't read much on it other than the basics.

Wife gets stuck with 7-8 patients at once all the time. It's impossible to properly care for all those people at once. There needs to be limits, and hospital need to hire more nurses.

Don't pat yourself on the back two hard, somehow you managed to lose two Dem house incumbent districts on Tuesday.

Andrew Gillum is now calling for a recount of the FL governor race, echoing Bill Nelson’s similar call for a recount in the Senate race. As of this morning, DeSantis lead Gillum by 43k votes and Rick Scott led Nelson by 21k votes.

A switch in Florida's outcome would be big news, especially if it means redistricting in 2020 and cutting the Republican Senate lead.

Any reason to believe the counts are off that much?

Also flipped two blue. It sucks they couldn’t retain Walz’s old district but both of those fights were going to be tough to win. Besides that’s the kind of stuff that keeps MN so fun. Where would we be without Jesse Ventura and that other dead-eyed psychopath whose name escapes me

Provisional/Absentee ballots still being counted. If final count doesn’t reveal one candidate has a 50% majority vote, FL law calls for a runoff election.

That's Georgia. In Florida there's an automatic recount in races within 0.5%
