Mid term elections ( Watch Party Thread)

[Jesusismyking87!!]

I am excited to see God return to America and for him to set up God loving and God fearing leaders tonight. So I am setting up a thread where we all can come together no matter what party you say you are ooooooooo! But we are all children of Christ and your my brother and sisters.


So all I ask is that a moderator can peek at this and after todays results if they can shut this down.

Thank you and God bless.

God never left us.

We might individually leave him by not doing as Christ said to do. But He is faithful and just to forgive if we repent and return to Him.

He doesn't abandon us, but seeks that we repent.

Luke 15 ESV

Don't put your faith in men:

Psalm 146:3 Put not your trust in princes, in mortal man, who cannot save.

Oh my faith is not with man but instead watching what God does to these elections.

The the first wave of votes are coming in...

Here in GA so far all red but still early.

I've been keeping an eye on the FiveThirtyEight.com webpage, as they update their projections as the vote comes in. So far, they are calling for a blue wave: their last projection before voting started (and that they started their coverage with, was 5 of 6 chances for Republican's to keep the Senate, and that they would pick up 1 seat. They thought Democrats had a 6 in 7 chance of winning the House, and that they'd pick up 36 seats.

Their most recent projections are a 7 in 8 chance for Republicans to maintain control of the Senate, still picking up 1 seat (though for a while they went to the Senate remaining the same); though they now give Democrats a 14 in 15 chance of controlling the House, picking up 41 seats.

With so many of these races being close, it could be a long night.

Man will try every way to predict but this is in Gods hands.

If that's the case I look forward to wide spread abstention from voting among Christians.

I think we both know that the proclamation of "this is in God's hands" wasn't even uttered among evangelical Trump supporters when Obama was the president during the last mid-term elections or when he was elected for his two terms. It wouldn't be uttered if Trump was a Democrat either.

The goats and I are getting kind of dizzy watching all of the numbers come in.

Might have to switch stations to a Little House on the Prairie for a while.

Come back later and see who the heck won all these races?

The night we turned off the TV when Hillary was leading we came back later to find out Trump was the new president. Wonder if that could work twice?

Things have flipped a bit now. FiveThirtyEight now gives Republicans a greater than 95% chance of keeping the Senate, picking up 4 seats. At the same time, Democrats chance of taking over the house has dropped to almost even (53%) picking up only 24 seats. As I said before, it will be a long night.

Turn off the tube...and see what happens. Aren't the goats hungry?
