I thought Florida was as republican as they come?
Oh no doubt. I just was shocked to see the name.
Gillum ahead in Florida
they swing down there
I find Fox News easiest to watch. The "liberal" talking heads are so far up their own arses. Fox News is just a parody of itself.
Massive swing state.
KY-6 key seat to watch. It's right at the expected +30 Dem gain. If it goes Red then Dems having a bad night.
Reasonable news out of Florida but this guy Joe Donelly messing things up so far
Florida looks good for Democrats following figures from 2016 and 2014.
Some boxes up from 53% up to 63% turnout. #bluetide

i don't knowHow are they calling it with only 2% reporting?
+2% Rep in 2016
Seems like people are voting straight ticket, which is good for Nelson.
Some sexy early signs in the house races in Florida.
My friend in Georgia wouldn’t like that, he keeps claiming GA is going blue soon.
CNN saying Dems leading in at least 5 House seats which were Repubican controlled
Watching it on BBC tonight and seeing how long I can stay up for, really need sleep but I also don't want to miss this and how weird is that? We're all obsessed with US politics whether we really want to be or not it seems.
Convinced it'll be Republican Senate and Democratic House and I'm not sure what that means. House Dems can reopen their investigation but can the Senate shoot them down?
I know they can't do impeachment on their own.

Ok looks better now
Florida exit polls: 51% approve Trump... not good.
I think the Senate has to be 2/3rds in favor of impeachment.
I'm sure @Raoul will know the ins and outs.
Will activate shortly

House can impeach by simple majority. Senate requires two thirds majority to remove him.
The House can reopen the investigation that Nunes shut down but that would obviously be a side show to what Mueller reports, which is likely when impeachment will be on the table.
They need half the house to vote for impeachment and 2/3rds senate. Unless there’s concrete evidence of criminality it’s not happening. Holding the house allows the Dems to make the administrations life a living hell though anyway.
McGrath may pull it off in Kentucky. Just seen some photos from Barr's base and lots of gloomy faces are on show.
Most important thing is House holds the purse, so bye bye (further) tax cuts.
Interesting being in the US for the elections. Signs everywhere and seeing BML and 'Dump Trump' stickers here and there.
Seem to be loads of civic elections going on too.

Starting to look decent for the Dems no?
Does not look good in Indiana.
impeachment should not be considered.
Just do all the investigations properly and submit the reports.
Schiff will get it done.
Haha, he purged himself. There is probably a LeBrian Kemp somewhere in his district that didnt dot the i on his library card.
VA-10 goes Dems, meaning a house win in region of +9/10 guaranteed. At least.
Nate Silver predicting +43 seats to Dems.
