I told everyone Hoffman would win. Looks like I was right!
Good call. And three days early to boot. Let me know when you’ve picked the Kentucky Derby winner. I’ll buy you a beer a couple of days before the race.

It’s certainly a massive display of something. Manipulation perhaps?
I’m not a Republican (hell, I’m not even a Democrat) and I’m not a resident of the district, but if I were I’d be more than miffed with all these outside politicos messing with my district’s election. I guess that makes me a purist, and a bit naive as well.
May the better (or better funded, or overhyped, or more useful tool-wise) candidate win.
What a grand day for the GOP!
