From the White House to the NBA. That's...not expected.

I think this is suggestive. I believe at this point they might just be waiting to see if the Dems gain control of the Senate before making an AG announcement. If they win, they name Garland so they can replace his seat, if they lose, they give it to Doug Jones who should be an easy confirmation.

I see GA Dem Senate ads but I see more of Rep Senate ads.
A pretty good one just now was a housewife saying how she voted for Biden but now will be voting Rep for "balance". Worried for Warnock also, the Rep ad quoting his wife is pretty effective to me. Haven't seen much of Ossoff which is surprising because I read the Dems had a pretty good war chest. IMO the Rep is doing a better job with ads so far. |

Yep, I see a ton of Ossoff and Warnock ads (same as Loeffler, but very few Perdue ads - more third party against Ossoff lately).

Latest GA polls from 538. Should be fun tomorrow.

I do not trust the polls, but the turn out numbers look encouraging so far. I still believe it will end up being a big GOP win, though. I have been burned too many times when I have hope.

Loeffler is trying super hard now, just said she would back voting against the elector results.
On a side note, I was up in Blue Ridge the last few days and saw tons of ads for both parties, as well as quite a few Warnock/Ossoff signs. Obviously neither are coming within 60 pts in Fanin/Gilmer, but the Trump signs are mostly gone and there are not too many Loeffler/Perdue signs/

It seems like Loeffler and Ossoff have been more negative with their campaigning, so it seems possible that their internal polls may be showing that they need to reduce turnout for their opponents (vs rallying their own troops). Betting odds favor the democrats. Should be interesting and will probably take a week or so to do all the counts.

I read this somewhere else, but if Trump wins the write-in vote for both elections, does he get to be both Senators? Is there like, a rule for that or something?

Loeffler is running an ad that makes Warnock's skin much darker. Maybe she wins but seems like desperate moves. |

She is desperate. Most believe the election is split, she will be the one who loses. She is not as known or as liked as Perdue (not that he particularly loved), and she was appointed over Trump's objection. With the Trump demonization of Kemp, that makes her appointment even worse. That is why she has firmly attached her mouth to Trump's butt, and has courted the Q people. "Desperate" is an apt definition of her.

I am guessing this is the thread for the GA elections. Are these getting called tonight?

The Dems are toast.
CNN just said 93% of the current votes counted are early. The republicans are going to fly by late night. Kind of ironic if you think about it. |

Numbers just came in in Fulton, and they were very good. Both Dems up on Biden's numbers, with a still good number of mail ballots to count that are even heavier Dem.

The numbers Kornacki is showing on MSNBC look good for Dems. They're running ahead of Biden.

If both Republicans end up losing, there is no chance either concedes right?

Does this increase the odds someone does something to force Biden to take legal action tomorrow?

Can't understand why McConnell didn't go with the $2k checks. Was a powerful message to hand to Democrats in that state.

Ossoff would be the youngest elected Senator since Joe Biden.

Normally I would want a divided government, but McConnel really needs to go back to hide in his shell.

Warnock seems to be positioned well based on the numbers/trend coming in. Purdue and Ossoff will be really tight.

I will also say a numbers guy who lives and knows the state well says we will have calls tonight. He is not saying the Dens will definitely win, but it would be a less than one percent Perdue win if he did.

The NYT needle seems to show Warnock at over 70% chance and Ossoff at over 60% chance of winning based on the numbers so far. The tightening is based on GOP counties coming in and they show Warnock and Ossoff doing better than Biden in November.

Good news. I look forward to seeing what happens. It'll still be tough to get anything substantive through the Senate, but a lot easier than it would have been without getting to 50-50.

Does this mean I won't have to see Kelly Loeffler's janky eye anymore when I watch the news?
I've never seen anyone so uncomfortably wear a trucker hat like she does in her ads. She's totally just a normal Southern girl. |
