Unions are running the voting machines there.

Yep. Angle needed to win above the margin of cheating. It doesn't look like it's going to have that kind of separation, hence, Majority Leader Reid.

 

[maxiep]

Actually, Majority Leader Reid is a hell of a lot better than Majority Leader Schumer.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi rejected numerous polls predicting a Republican landslide among House candidates and defiantly predicted tonight that Democrats will retain control of the House of Representatives.

"The early returns and overwhelming number of Democrats who are coming out – we're on pace to maintain a majority in the House of Representatives," Pelosi told reporters during a photo op in Washington.

But as polls closed in six states, early returns appeared to favor Republicans in competitive districts, signalling Democrats could be in for a bruising night.
