Barry, I said before the special election: All Politics Is Local.
The Dems did get a ton of money coming in from California and Massachusetts to that race.
But the ONLY reason it was close at all was because Osoff was a good looking young guy with a great personality.
Voters liked him and he talked a lot about working WITH the Republicans in Congress and the Trump White House.
But in a local election...it's all about local concerns.
I don't believe that it had anything to do with national politics or any kind of referendum on Trump or the mid-term elections.
That's all made-up fantasy by the media.
They did the same exact thing in the previous special elections over the last couple of months.
Just HOPING the Democrats would win so they could crow about the "implications".
It's really sad what our news media has become.
They seem to deal in made-up stories and scenarios and rumors. Nothing is substantiated. But all is presented as "fact"...until they are proven 100% wrong. Then the whole story is swept away and "forgotten".
