@FrankCalabrese He’ll likely just remain in the House and continue being a career politician.

Our campaign would be nothing without your support. Thank you to my team, my endorsers, my family, and most of all, IL09. Let's run through the tape. 💙

@AustinHoney30 low voter turnout means no “Mandami” surge which means Kat is done. Biss is struggling in Evanston. looking like the moderates are voting.
English
Interesting.
And I want to say if Algonquin voted for her I noted it a week ago that she was the only one with campaign events/GOTV out there. If not, then disregard.
Ryan Ottignon@RyanInEvanston
IL-09 map: 18-44yos, which is Kat's strongest group, per the PPP poll last week. She's sought to engage traditionally low-voting Northwestern students, which... makes sense with the data. Note potential progressive pockets in Wheeling and Algonquin Twps.

19 percent turnout in chicago as of 2:30. You cannot complain if you do not vote!

Daniel Biss IS GUILTY of something far more egregious than being accused of an inappropriate relationship with a student
This crazed left wing zealot has committed $10 MILLION DOLLARS of tax payer dollars to pay reparations
Tax payers who never owned slaves, are paying $25,000 dollars to Black residents (or their descendants) who never were slaves. You read it right
With Carpetbagger Kat and this knucklehead, is there any Democrat in the 9th District with a brain?
I think we all know the answer to that question

Daniel Biss, candidate for IL-09 in tomorrow's election, has been accused of having an inappropriate relationship with a student during his tenure as a professor at the University of Chicago Megan Wachspress, now a Stanford law lecturer, says she was that student

wow...according to the poll conducted by @m3strat 51% of self described "Very Liberal" people supported Kat in EV and VBM
English
@demsocsean the turnout is so low which means “no Mandami” surge
English
If Kat actually won the EV, it's a very good sign for her because of the trend of progressives usually performing better on election day

@FrankCalabrese the real story is the low turnout. 4 open congressional seats. an open senate seat. barely any interest.
English

@ChiForPritzker @FrankCalabrese these polls out of 9 have been terrible
English
@FrankCalabrese This has Stratton up by 26% in the 9th, think that’s enough of a lead?
English
Remember folks, this is a poll of only people who have voted already, so that favors candidates with high energy support (obviously Kat here). Dan Biss is very much in this.
English
@BiggusKippus @FrankCalabrese no “Mandami” surge means Kat is done. 48th ward turnout has been low and Biss obviously is struggling in Evanston.
English
@FrankCalabrese Generally the last year, the younger more progressive candidate does better on in person votes than early vote. She seems on track to win by a 5-10% margin.
English
@Popstonox 22% undecided means whoever campaign has more energy in the last week could easily see things swing their way.
@KatAbughazaleh did A LOT for herself in that debate. Voters are tired of wishy washy politically "safe" answers. I think she'll close the gap.

@smithman365948 @BornThriller @Popstonox @KatAbughazaleh I’m a white guy that voted for him and that is rascist

@Rickybobby333 @BornThriller @Popstonox @KatAbughazaleh That viet cong clown is getting spanked and embarrassed tonight

@urbanistcole @ryanmccomb Biss may get Election Day backlash from women and may drive turnout against himself. People that were not planning to vote may come and vote aganist him.
English
@ryanmccomb Latest turnout update in Chicago looked mixed. Young voters caught up a lot but the oldest cohort held steady.
Women are way outvoting men though too.
I think slight Biss advantage.
Idk what cook county turnout is like
English
@urbanistcole @ryanmccomb Biss is struggling in his own backyard of Evanston looking at early voting numbers and his support dramatically drops off going into the district. now controversy which will cost him votes.as they say if you know you know.
