The Convention Center here is the site of the Chris McDaniel victory party. Of course, election night events are always called a “victory party” in advance, even though you don’t know who will win the election until the votes are counted. Polls close at 7 p.m. CDT (8 Eastern) and we expect the vote to be extremely close, so it could be a long, long night. Here is some expert commentary:
Of course, I’m much better-looking in person. I’ll be updating regularly tonight as the vote totals come in. Stay tuned.

Stacy-You are better looking as you age. You look handsomer than you did in that speedo photo of 30 plus years ago.
Thanks for the update. Will you be issuing further updates every 5, 10, or 15 minutes?

YES!

Depends on if someone is buying a round.
If anyone wants to follow the returns as they come in, I’d recommend realclearpolitics.com which has the primary results on its front page.
With 24 percent of districts in, McDaniel leads Cochran 25,779 to 25,226, or 49.7% to 48.6%. Updates are coming fast as I type this.

Thanks for that. Usually in these situations I go to the website of the SOS of the individual state but in this case the website of the Mississippi SOS sucks.
It is Cochran ahead by about 2 with 70% reporting, so McDaniels needs to start pulling ahead to win.
With 80% McDaniel ahead by 2 points

Simultaneously encouraging and frustrating. The TEA Party is having such an incredible struggle to defeat the VichyGOP. If they can barely beat this walking corpse how long will it take to clean house and rein in lefties in government?
I want to believe we can save the Republic but everything seems to be proving me wrong.
What, no pictures of Molly? EBL needs Rule 5 fodder!
In other words: It’s a Rauhauser operation?
Sure as Hell looks that way. Ali and John Hoge are more up on this kind of thing than I am, however.
Great job, Stacy. You are always our warrior on the front lines of the fight. You and your sidekick, Ali Akbar. Wish I were there to help you both.

Rule 5!
At 97 percent of the districts reporting it’s McDaniels 49.5% and Cochran 49.0%. McDaniels needs to increase his ~1500 vote lead to ~4500 to avoid a runoff, and it’d be nearly impossible for Cochran to get enough of the remaining vote to avoid a runoff.
