GA-SEN 2020 Class II Megathread (Perdue inc.)

[QAnonKelly]

The state has an embarrassment of riches in the Democratic talent pool but I'm voting for Tomlinson. I like Terry but he's just too young imo, Perdue plays nasty.

Tomlinson has a spine of steel and will dismantle Perdue. Terry has a lot of policy deficits. He was asked several things at a town hall and didn’t have an answer. I’ve never seen Tomlinson so much as flinch. She’s been preparing for this since before Abrams had the performance she had in 2018 unlike Terry and Amico. I trust her.

Agreed. Terry has all the time in the world to work on getting where he needs to go. There’s no young, talented Rs in the state anymore either since the two state reps lost last year which helps him even more. There’s a time for and a place for everyone and this just isn’t his time.

I'm not sure if Georgia is ready for such a staunch progressive like Terry. Too radical for his state, at least at the present time.

He will not be facing Handel again. Wonder why he choose to go against Teresa Tomlinson instead of thee open seat...perhaps Mcbath is entering? Also, Ossoff gets John Lewis's endorsement.

[Rookie Yinzer]

Still with Tomlinson!

Ossoff is unremarkable.

[henster]

Ideally McBath runs for the open seat and a POC is the nominee against Perdue then Dems could really juice turnout. I just feel like Dems are gonna give up on beating Perdue and just go for the open seat which is a lot easier.

If Perdue wins reelection, Democrats will not win the open seat. I just cannot envision that many Perdue-McBath (?) voters.

That would be very dumb of them considering how polarized Georgia is.

Huh? Nobody even knows who Perdue is. Voters are going to vote according to their tribe regardless of who the person is in either race. Next.

Lol Jon Ossoff

I am still for Tominlson and McBath. People like Terry and Ossoff remind me too much of the pretty all American boy candidate that Democrats run all the time like Murphy, Beto, and Kander but they always come up short. Yet they always seem to fail upward after losing an election.

Biden, now Ossoff... Dems are trying as hard as they can to make people not want to vote for them even in the Trump era.

I mean, if Ossoff somehow outperformed the Democratic presidential nominee by as much as O'Rourke or Kander, he’d be guaranteed to win the general. Obviously he won’t, but just saying.

How? Unlike Kander and Beto, he isn't inspiring or particularly charismatic. People on this site and in the political media only became obsessed with him because election-wise, the GA-6 Special was the only thing going on for a few months in 2017.

[Rookie Yinzer]

How I feel....

That is my thought too, perhaps McBath has privately indicated she is running for the special election. I imagine she’d clear the field, which would explain why Ossoff is in for the regular election against Perdue. Otherwise I feel like Ossoff would run in the special election.

[Young Conservative]

Ossoff is really showing he’s learned from 2017 by nationalizing yet another race and announcing a run for Georgia Senate in a NYC tv studio... lol. The left never learns.

[Sir Mohamed]

LOL at Ossoff.

Hope he doesn't make it to the GE after he blew a winnable race last time.

[Brittain33]

Ossoff performed as Generic D in 2017. Wouldn’t we expect him to do the same in 2020?

[President Johnson]

Buh Ossoff! Go Queen Teresa She's the senate candidate for 2020 I'm most excited about besides the Hick.

Tomlinson is now endorsed by former Governor Roy Barnes.

Atlas is a fickle mistress. Some of us remember all the President Ossoff hype.

[Gracile]

Rep. Hank Johnson (D) has endorsed Ossoff:

Ew at them endorsing someone who has done little to nothing for Georgia citizens for such an important job.

Anyway this article eviscerates Ossoff:
