Ralston thinks Cortez Masto still has a good chance to catch up in NV

Here's the math, folks:
If there are 100K mail ballots left in Clark, which would make sense based on turnout there, and the Dems win by the 2-to-1 margin they have so far, CCM could come back to win. More uphill for Sisolak but he's not quite dead yet.

Also: 16K mail in Washoe.

It looks like the votes is there if everything lines up well for us.

If CCM held and GA went to a runoff, I wonder if Warnock’s odds of winning would be better. GOP would be demoralized and maybe stay home.

So when he says there should be more than 100k votes out there, it should be. I think the question in his mind is if the votes will be the 2-1 ratio that it currently is. If it tracks, I think Cortez will hold the seat. Finger crossed for that to happen.

Once again though, not a sure thing at all.

The republicans that held their nose for Walker for the Senate would not vote for him again if we already hold the Senate. I think she is right. I hope we can hold both NV and AZ so that would happen. 51 seats would be great.
