UPDATED: 6th Rep District Dem Mike Migliore Favored In the 12/20 Special
UPDATE: I just got this email from the clueless/leaderless DEGOP:
With just days to go before Saturday’s Special Election in the 6th District, Tom Kovach needs your help to bring home a win! This election is CRITICAL! It will determine whether the Democrats will have a 60% supermajority in the House of Representatives, which will allow them to raise taxes on Delawareans. Don’t let that happen!
Tom Kovack is the last best hope for the WHA!-conomic loser party that thinks you are a bunch of welfare queens sucking off the government teet.
The moronic asswipes who repond to this type of fundraising pitch have no idea that they are paying the GOP “stupidity tax” and that is a tax which will not go to helping pay for essencial services.

Tobin digs into the numbers. Democratic district? Check. Migliore has spent $10k more than Kovach has raised? Check.
Read the whole thing because Tobin’s analysis leaves no loose ends, including (in an earlier post) ruling out weather as a factor.
Bottom Line:
Campaign finances, registration advantage, recent voter behavior and likely turnout breakdown combine to give Migliore the edge in this race.
Side Note: I predicted that winner of this race would raise $40k. Milgore raised $34k as of 12/12.
Good luck to Mr. Migliore!
That is a lot of money in a short amount of time.
So, taxes are not going up under the Democrats? Can I get a verification on that fact?
Mike, stop with the pandering about taxes. I am sick of Republicans and their pandering about taxes. We, as a community, have agreed that government needs to provide essential services that the private sector can’t or won’t. They are funded by taxes. You can’t buy something without paying for it – Oh that’s right – you’re a Republican, the national party that thinks you can buy services/tax cuts and just put it on credit and still pander about raising taxes. Sorry, Guess you won’t understand.
As for the election, I like the Republican “The Sky is Falling In” approach to this election. Mike Migliore is going to win because of his voter registration advantage, the fact that he is a great candidate/guy and the fact that once again, the Republican candidate can’t stop being nasty which Brandywine Hundred has repudiated many times over the past 6 years. Someday they will have a cnadidate with a vision and character who they can market on his or her virtues……
Mike, We’re changing your name to Protax. Like every other Republican you are a one-trick pony.
Mike’s a hard worker and a smart guy. I hope that all of his supporters will realize how important it is to make time to get to the polls on Saturday.
