[RussFeingoldWasRobbed]

Thank god!

[n1240]

We still have more votes to go, but this is highly interesting - Dems outvoting Reps in both GA-06 and GA-07 (especially 7th)

GA-06
Dems 42,428
Reps 36,118

GA-07
Dems 50,342
Reps 34,812

Gap has grown in GA-06

Dems 58721
GOP 48063

Ossoff up to 49.996% statewide with new Fulton County results, they don't seem to be done with absentee votes yet, he's definitely advancing without a runoff.

Where's the best place to look for results?

I received updated Fulton results from here (some county pages on the GA clarity site update before they do on the cumulative statewide page): https://results.enr.clarityelections.com/GA/Fulton/103674/web.247524/#/summary?v=252536%2F

Updated DeKalb results from here: https://www.dekalbcountyga.gov/sites/default/files/2020-06/ElectionSummaryReportRPT%20-%206.10.20%20139p.pdf

Amazing job.

Thanks! It looks DDHQ has updated Fulton #s but not the updated DeKalb #s yet. That would put him at the 49.996% like you said. Ugh, need this to happen!

NYT, DDHQ, GASOS, NBCNews pages are all on different stages of the updates

What is Perdue at? I only see a total for Trump.

Nobody filed to run against Perdue.

His and Trumps numbers are still reported on county websites and the SOS. Perdue is getting a few more votes than Trump in the metro counties, similar to the Dem Senate race getting more voters than the Presidential contest

The SOS site is useless though since it’s way behind everywhere else

Does he outrun Trump in the general at all then? Or do they live and die together?

Good sign for Democrats obviously, especially with a non-competitive primary in GA-06.

NYTimes has Ossoff at 50.01% now.

[2016]

NYTimes has Ossoff at 50.01% now.

Unless Ossoff is substantially over 50 % I wouldn't be surprised if Tomlinson is asking for a Recount.

A lot of things went wrong in GA yesterday.

[Storr]

NYTimes has Ossoff at 50.01% now.

Politico has him at 50.0.

Jon Ossoff             420,723    50.0%

Teresa Tomlinson   128,558   15.3%

Sarah Riggs Amico   107,370   12.8%

It also has 89% (all other metro Atlanta counties were 98% or greater) of precincts reporting in DeKalb, which can only be good for Ossoff since he's currently up 54.7% to 15.2% there.

NBC NEWS & CNN get their Results from Edison Research Counting. That's THE WORST thing the Networks could have ever done. They should switch it back to the AP.

Edison is hilariously bad at Vote Counting! If this happens on Election Night it might take us a week before we get accurate counts.

The exact math for these votes is 50.013136% Ossoff right now. Sites round.

[wbrocks67]

Ossoff at 50.1% now.

Tomlinson apparently sent out an email this morning to her supporters saying she was officially in the runoff in August. I can't.

[Xing]

I wonder if Tomlinson will concede this week...

[RussFeingoldWasRobbed]

I wonder if Tomlinson will concede this week...

Given how shes been acting lately, I'm not hopeful

[wbrocks67]

Ossoff at 50.6%. At this rate, the question is how high will he get.

[GeorgiaModerate]

AP has called it for Ossoff, per this AJC article.

[TiltsAreUnderrated]

The GA races are, at last, aligned for me thanks to Ossoff avoiding a runoff.

GA-SPEC: pure tossup -> tilt R
GA-REG: lean R -> tilt R

[Oryxslayer]

AP has called it for Ossoff, per this AJC article.

So has NYT and DDHQ. Tomlinson has a buffet of crow to eat whenever she speaks again.

[Rookie Yinzer]

Tomlinson concedes:

[Heebie Jeebie]

Tomlinson concedes:

https://twitter.com/teresatomlinson/status/1270884602635341824?s=20

She should run for Lieutenant Governor in 2022.

[Pollster]

Tomlinson concedes:

https://twitter.com/teresatomlinson/status/1270884602635341824?s=20

This was the right move. Now she needs to work on analyzing and correcting what went wrong to prep for Gov/Lt Gov/SoS in 2022.

This was the right move. Now she needs to work on analyzing and correcting what went wrong to prep for Gov/Lt Gov/SoS in 2022.

Out of curiosity, what do you think went wrong for her?  I think a lot of her problems were beyond her control.  Her fundraising lagged because for months potential donors were waiting to see if big name potential candidates like Abrams or Yates would run.  Ossoff had a built-in fund-raising advantage from the start thanks to his already existing massive donors list, and some key endorsements (Lewis, especially).  I guess choosing to run her campaign out of Columbus rather than the Atlanta Metro Area was a huge miscalculation, limiting her media exposure and volunteer operation, but that was also the core of her pitch:  "I'm from south Georgia and I can win over those voters."  Besides relocating to where the money and the people are, I'm not sure what she should have done differently. 

[President Johnson]

Tomlinson concedes:

https://twitter.com/teresatomlinson/status/1270884602635341824?s=20

The result was embarrassing. I actually thought she would be a strong candidate for the general election and, as two term mayor, be a pragmatic senator if elected.
