Funny, I didn’t realize Bernie Sanders was the Democratic candidate in the Georgia run-offs...

LOL

He is lucky that GA has very few true swing voters and that most Biden voters are hardcore straight ticket democratic voters.

Now you know how many of us Democrats feel about 90% of Republicans Wink.

And conversely, what about all the Republican who are mortified by Trump's refusal to concede and by Loeffler/Perdue's enabling of it?

All 5 of them?

One thing that I find so curi ous about this race is that it seems like both sides are pessimistic on their chances of winning. Normally on Atlas, and throughout other election communities, Democrats tend to be bullish on Democrats while Republicans tend to be bullish on Republicans, yet for these, I feel like I'm seeing a more than usual number of people from both sides saying the other side will win. Democrats generally seem worried their voters won't show up, and the opposite is true for Republicans, who worry their base won't show up. Anyone else who feels this way?

It's expectation setting. Better to be pleasantly surprised than disappointed.

Democrats need to put this photo in every 2022 ad. 300+ seat House majority and veto-proof Senate majority here we come!

Republicans are playing the expectations game. Nothing new.

I think you meant to say “Rain in NoGA, Ossoff/Warnock are finished.”

I think everyone should be careful with their expectations. That includes expectations of when we’ll know with certainty who won.

I think we know after midnight, Republicans win as any rational predictor would be able to see

Yeah, anyone rational could see how doomed Jacky Rosen was as well.

The most important question of all: How many pages will this thread get to before we get any actual results?

So we're all in agreement that we won't peek at results until 12 AM when the needle will give us an actual picture of the race?

Wouldn’t it be something if:

1. Ossoff and Warnock win
2. The GOP repeals the runoff rule
3. A Democrat beats Kemp in 2022 with 49%

If Ossoff beats Perdue, I already have my response to "but Perdue got more votes in the first round!!! So unfair and undemocratic!!!!" prepared:

"I agree, Mary Landrieu must be seated now."

Hero of the Suburbs David Perdue under 30% in Ancestrally Republican Gwinnett? Not possible! Rigged!

The needle will go red and never go back by 8pm.

Cash it in. It’s gaining interest.

Look, everyone, we've already got one for the well-aged content megathread Smiley.

No one's saying this is over yet. Perdue and Loeffler could still win (Perdue has a slightly better chance), but Democrats do have reason to be cautiously optimstic. Still a long way to go, obviously.

Turnout was a bit down from November, but the raw vote margin was roughly the same for Democrats, so good news for them overall.

Strange, I thought the suburbs were supposed to “snap back” once Trump was off the ballot...

I’m no Manchin fan, but he’s not switching parties, lol. He knows how much power he’ll have as the 50th Democrat in the Senate.

Assuming Ossoff wins, who will be the Junior Senator and who will be the Senior Senator? Forgive my ignorance.

I'm more disappointed its my own state than anything else atm.  Also the fact that we are now perma-blue is disgusting.

I need to vomit.
