Anecdotal, but I know a first-time voter from Georgia who is pretty much a centrist having voted for Biden, Ossoff and Warnock. He says doesn't want a Democratic trifecta so he will probably be voting for Perdue and Loeffler in the runoff.

I still try to convince him to to reconsider his support for Loeffler at least with the argument that this would still avoid a Dem trifecta but ensure that Attila's Barbie Girl gets kicked out of Congress. Hope he changes his mind..

Wondering how many Georgians think the way he does.

My guess is Perdue has twice thought he won the Senate race, only to later fall short:

1) In Nov when it initially appeared he would get over 50% of the vote


Fell about 14,000 votes short of a surefire Senate majority on Nov. 3rd. 
If Republicans won the 2016 New Hampshire senate race, they would have 51 seats today. That was only a 1017 vote margin to give the Democrats a trifecta that would come 4 years later.
Ah, yes, the good old times when Ayotte graciously conceded after the race was called instead of weeks of lawsuits, fraud allegations and recounts.
