Georgia senate seats runoff(s) megathread

[walleye26]

I hope that the Dems win the runoffs simply because the GOP is just that awful. But I’ll believe the Dems winning a runoff when I see it.

Remember how Loeffler was supposed to be the moderate one who could appeal to suburban women? Pepperidge Farms remembers.

Does anybody know how many 18 year olds have “aged in” and are now eligible to vote in this election that weren’t in November?

So according to what other posters have mentioned, about 23,000 18 year olds have “aged in” for this election since November, and there may be a few thousand people who have moved to Georgia since then and have registered. So, let’s just say 10,000 of them will turn out to vote. That would be about a 40% turnout rate. If they go 60/40 D-R that should give Warnock and Ossoff another 2K votes. Not a lot, but anything helps.
I’m also assuming that those who have died since November 3rd are probably older and more GOP-leaning. I know I’m doing some quick math, but would you guys agree with it?

My prediction: 51-49 Perdue, 50.2-49.8 Loeffler.
Honestly, I would love to see Ossoff and Warnock crush them, but 2018-Gov vibes keep creeping up again and again.

The year is 2027. We are still waiting on DeKalb.

I take back everything I ever said bad about the state of Georgia.

[walleye26]

I’m opposed to Stacey Abrams running for Governor in 2022. She needs to run the Florida Democratic Party.

The real question is going forward whether or not GA becomes Virginia, a blue state, or North Carolina, a swing state that’s always in reach but still hard.
