Danny O'Connor's special election eve message:
"This district has been held by a Republican representative for decades - and Trump won it by 11 points in '16. Pulling off a victory here won't be easy. But if we make it happen, it will send shockwaves through the Republican Party"

Danny O'Connor's going stealth on the arrogant Repubs.
They're so used to winning this seat, they won't know what hit them.

Hoping O'Connor grabs the win.
