A request

[PeaceNikki]

Just remember that you are among Democrats here. Many worked hard to elect(re-elect) Democrats. Our blood, sweat, tears and hearts are deeply invested in these races. None of the people here deserve the scorn that you broadbrush upon the states that don't go our way tonight. Be thoughtful and offer condolences rather than heap nasty horrible shit upon us.

1. Amen. nt

[Sugarcoated]

2. Thank you

:hug:

[mahina]

3. Word.

aloha. K & R

[ScreamingMeemie]

4. Happy to K&R.

[AndrewP]

5. I'm thankful to every Democrat who has worked hard through this cycle

I will never taunt any State just because of their vote.
There are many good people who are going to suffer because of the stupidity of many.

[PeaceNikki]

8. Exactly.

And it's really nasty to rub salt in a very open and painful wound.

Some of these races are heartbreaking.

6. As a resident of Kentucky...

:loveya:

[PeaceNikki]

9. My heart is with you, LJF

:hug:

Though I do hope the heartbreaking potential of the races in my state is not equivalent.

[terrya]

7. Very pleased to K&R

:thumbsup:

[LiberalAndProud]

10. Knowing that I will have nothing from my state to celebrate on this night, I second this request.

If I find no sympathy here on DU, where will I find it from the sea of ignorance that is my state?

[beam me up scottie]

25. +1

[lukasahero]

11. Just here to k&r

Thanks for the kind reminder. It's bad enough it looks like we're screwed, we don't need salt poured on... :(

[Scuba]

12. Thanks Nikki... us Cheeseheads worked hard for Russ. Let's hope it pays off!

[laughingliberal]

13. K & R nt

[jpgray]

14. If this forestalls a single "WTF is wrong with x" thread, you are a princess among DUers

:patriot:

[PeaceNikki]

15. It partly comes from a terrifying fear that I may one of the heartbroken from "x"

:(

[jpgray]

16. Everyone here is pulling for Russ

Which is something few candidates can say about DU. I gave to his cheesebomb, and have my fingers crossed. :(

[PeaceNikki]

17. I know. But if he loses, I just know some will say WI is full of idiots.

And however true it is, there are idiots everywhere. And there are informed voters as well. Wisconsin has elected him 3 times and if he loses, it wasn't because of us here on DU.

And thanks.

[Yeshuah Ben Joseph]

22. No, my first guess would be that its full of corrupt machines

Unless every vote was counted on paper, and they still voted for the pedophile. THEN they would be idiots.

[jonnyblitz]

29. oh please. I live in a state that gave you Lieberman. I ain't

sayin' shit to anybody. :D

[PeaceNikki]

33. lol

Yeah... :)

[beam me up scottie]

27. Too late.

Unfortunately.

Thanks all for the sentiment, it helps.

[Dappleganger]

18. Thank you.

This Floridian who voted straight Dem thanks you.

[PeaceNikki]

19. sigh

:(

:hug:

[Terra Alta]

20. Thank you!

As a resident of NC I fear I'm going to get some flak since :puke: Burr just won here.

[PeaceNikki]

21. Consider this a thread of support

You're not to blame for that.

:hug:

[Fyddlestyx]

23. Well said. n/t

:kick:

[kiva]

24. A Nevadan says thank you. n/t

[calimary]

26. Amen!

[undeterred]

28. I second that emotion.

[mcar]

30. Thank you from FL

I needed that right now. :toast:

[PeaceNikki]

31. Aww, man.

:(

Grayson's race is a damn shame.

[mcar]

34. And Scott is up so far too

That makes me even more ill than the other races.

[grantcart]

32. When you get ahold of that JEEBUS guy let me know.

I got a few things I need to talk to him about.


I left messages but he seems to have lost my number.

[azmouse]

35. Thanks from AZ.

It'll be an ugly night here I'm afraid.

[SoCalDemGrrl]

36. Thanks Nikki, but I cant help but feeling grateful that I'm in California.

Thankfully this state seems to have come to it's senses.

and I feel much sympathy for those in Kentucky, Florida, Ohio etc,

It must be very difficult being a progressive in these States.

I've got an idea ..... COME TO CALIFORNIA!!!
