2026 Midterm Elections - All eyes on Texas tonight

[BillyL]

This kind of Balkanization is bad news for whichever candidate wins in the general.

Not to sound like Sen. S.Collins . . but it is concerning..

It is 100% expected.

And not a problem in the fall, especially if Tallarico wins. Crockett would have problems in Texas suburbs for sure.

In the NC GOP state senate primary between Phil Berger and Sam Page, Page leads Berger 55% to 45% with about half of all precincts reporting. Unfortunately for Page, nearly all Rockingham County precincts have reported and most of what is left is in Guilford County, where's he's not as well known and Berger is favored. Still, losing your lifelong home county by double digits is petty telling of what Berger's neighbors think of him. But if he can win Guilford by enough to prevail I'm sure he won't care about that at all.

I don't care if Page is more loony than Lara Loomer and twice as extreme as Steven Miller, I will laugh my ass off from now to eternity if Phil Berger loses a Republican primary.

Biggest political upset ever?

I'm speechless

Yeah. It’s one of those “I better be careful what I wish for” things, but, man oh man, it would be nice to see Berger’a reign end.

 

[Mulberry Heel]

With about 70% of all precincts reporting, Page's lead over Berger is down to 52% to 48%. This one is going down to the wire.

 

[Icky Mettle]

Unfortunately I think if Berger does get ousted and has to be replaced as president pro-tem of the Senate, it’ll be kind like what’s going on in Iran.

Dan Crenshaw got smoked.

Dan Crenshaw got smoked.

Chip Roy is getting ran out of the building as well in the AG primary.

When we flip like 50 House seats and flip the Senate in November we’re never going to see our board MAGAts around here ever again are we?

Tony Gonzalez’ counterintuitive late push to affirm his Republican credentials appears to have paid off.

 

[Mulberry Heel]

With 90% of all precincts reporting, Sam Page leads Phil Berger 50.7% to 49.3%, or by about 400 votes. 5 precincts are still out, all in Guilford County, which would seem to favor Berger. There may be a recount in this one either way.

[Mulberry Heel]

Page now leads Berger by 172 votes with 2 precincts still out. Both precincts are in Guilford County, where Berger has been winning by a wide margin.

I'm pretty sure the Republican House leadership desperately - albeit not openly - wants Gonzales to lose that primary so they don't have to keep answering inconvenient questions about why this piece of shit scumbag is still in Congress

Page now leads Berger by 172 votes with 2 precincts still out. Both precincts are in Guilford County, where Berger has been winning by a wide margin.

If Page loses, he should pull a Jefferson Griffin and see how Berger responds.
