Steve Kornacki is already starting with the rural returns coming in for the Barr/McGrath race. I feel like I'm going to puke and also start strangling the next white woman and/or Berner Bro I see.
If you post something like this, especially with so many local races, can you pretty please tell us if this has been Officially Called or just like xx% of precincts reporting?
Thanks much
ETA: Also some context on whether we flipped the seat, whether it was a tight race, etc.

I have kept it together today and am cautiously optimistic. But I had a panic attack in the parking lot of my daughter’s dance studio just now. I couldn’t breathe and started crying. Out of nowhere. Over nothing! Ugh.
I actually think I may need to be awake for Alaska and I’m pre-emptively sleepy thinking about it. I’m not supposed to be doing any caffeine right now so it should be.... interesting.

Can someone highlight the most likely districts to flip (for house?) I’m trying to decide how much to panic if some of these R incumbents win but I know logically that of course a great deal of the incumbents are going to win.

Yes, there are no precinct results last I checked, I'm just rooting for her. The polls closed like five minutes ago there, so I'm guessing it will be a while since it's supposed to be a close race.

KY-06 is a good one to watch. It's an R+9 district where a former fighter pilot is trying to unseat the R incumbent.
It's expected to be close, but could be an indicator of how much the Dems might pick up. And the pills closed 40 minutes ago.

Gwinnett County, GA added an time to voting today due to technical issues, so GA doesn't close until 7:25 now (how they arrived at that crapass pick of a time, I don't know). It could be a swing county for the governors race, since it has a more diverse demographic than most other counties (53% white, 47% other races).
I am going to bed because staying up will not make it better. I have already had a beer.

Okay. Pulling myself together.
I say this with love, but let’s try to save our white tears at least until 9pm ET.
In the meantime, putting one last fervent wish out into the universe. Buckle up. Here we go.

Unfortunately a lot are in CA. Good early ones to watch are Comstock’s district and Brat’s district (both exurbs of NOVA).

This link to the House election results has a great list of them all on one page. Separates the district races into Solid, Leaning, and Toss-up. The map will even show if a district has flipped:
For full transparency I’m two glasses in to my bottle of zin and I’ll be passed out by 9 pm EST.
I've been drinking sparkling water like it's my job all afternoon. Trying to pace myself and hold off on the booze until at least after 5pm here. A little over an hour to go...

Was Indiana supposed to be close? It’s super early but Donnelly is not doing so good.
Depends on what precincts/counties are in. People are still in line voting there too from what I’m hearing. But the region (near Chicago) doesn’t close until 7pm and that is an area that along with Indy will lean more D. Rural areas lean more R.
