GA-SEN 2020 Class III Megathread: She Who Loeffs Last

[ElectionsGuy]

So we get two Georgia elections in 2020?

If Kemp appoints some lunatic or dolt like Hice, Broun, or Handel, this seat should be an easy pickup for the Dems.

Since when is Georgia an "easy pickup"?

Bad decision for McBath if true. She's WAY more likely to win re-election to GA-06 than to win statewide in an open senate seat. Also increases Republican odds in the 6th.

No it doesn't. Abrams also won GA-06 with an electorate that was less Democratic than 2016. The white voters in that district are done with the GOP. 

In the meantime, McBath is amazing at working suburban audiences, and black turnout will be huge with her on the ticket. She is an exceptional speaker with a powerful personal story. She will also raise a sh-t ton of money. She is the best alternative to Abrams. Meanwhile Tomlinson can work on getting out that South GA vote. And we will all be curbing voter suppression to the best of our abilities.

Nothing ventured, nothing gained.

I'm all in for Tomlinson/McBath 2020.

lol. Of course, any Democratic incumbent giving up their seat doesn't change anything, but all the Republicans retiring in Texas and elsewhere makes those seats more competitive. But I realize I'm talking to people who view any Republican improvement from 2018 as impossible, so what do I expect.

Not sure how this is a good idea considering how Georgia is trending.

That's essentially just saying she's a generic Republican at this point. Nobody who voted for Trump and Kemp will have doubts about voting for her, and no, an exit poll showing Republican percentage of the electorate 1 point higher than 2016 doesn't prove Georgia is guaranteed to flip in 2020 by doing uniform swing from 2018 lol
