Georgia senate seats runoff(s) megathread

[pantsaregood]

This is going to suck. And by suck I mean really suck

Can we start a poorly aging quote train for you like the one Woodbury had? You really deserve it.

Is Cherokee County rural? I was under the impression it was mostly suburban.

Houston isn't really rural, either. It's small-city.

Yeah I’m from there... we’re definitely not a rural county. We’re conservative, yeah, but Biden performed pretty well there.

[Gass3268]

The anecdotal turnout reports (for whatever they're worth) are all pretty good for the Rs now. Earlier this morning they were pretty mixed.

Dekalb County?

the highest turnout is in the Republican corner (Dunwoody) which follows what's happening statewide

Dunwoody was like Biden +20 this year.

Dunwoody was like Biden +20 this year.

So by the standards of DeKalb, it's pretty Republican. Which is to say it's like the warmest part of Alaska.

I remember the late updates from Houston being pretty brutal for Trump.

Under 30 share smaller than November in the early exits

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

Similar gender breakdown on gender

62% White, 29% Black 5% Latino 2% Asian 2% Other.

13% 18-29
23% 30-44
38% 45-64
25% 65 +

39% GOP 36% Dem 25% Indy

Those racial numbers look almost identical to the general election.

The concerning number is the age number for Democrats. The age gap among whites in the South is gigantic and younger white voters are critical for the math to work. Granted on the other hand, how many angry boomer suburbanites are voting their anger on Trump and vote Democrat as a result.

56%-41% think November was fair  - CNN Exit poll

95% of Dems thought it was fair
76% of Republicans think it wasn't.

Not to be a doomer, but those numbers aren't particularly GREAT for us (Dems).

That said, early exit polls leaned way right on election day before making a sharp correction.

I don’t see why this would be bad

Because while a majority think it was fair, that belief does not split evenly along party lines. I didn't see those results were a definite defeat for the Democratic Party tonight; I said they weren't great (in all caps) for the Democratic Party.

Great would have been something to indicate a solid, nearly guaranteed, win.

I also pointed out that early exit polls in November skewed way farther right than the actual results, and so these numbers should be taken with a grain of salt.

Is that ELECTION day or combine with early vote?

If combine with early vote it’s over early.

If it’s Election Day isn’t that ...really good for Dems?

The partisan breakdown is also GOP +1, DEM +2, Indy -3 compared to November. Agreed the age is concerning, but the other numbers look fine.

The boomers came out today lmaooo

[Co-Chair Bagel23]

Holy shìt. My mom came into my room to bring me a plate of chicken nuggets and I literally screamed at her and hit the plate of chicken nuggets out of her hand. She started yelling and swearing at me and I slammed the door on her. I'm so distressed right now I don't know what to do. I didn't mean to do that to my mom but I'm literally in shock from the results tonight. I feel like I'm going to explode. Why the fûcking fùck is Perdue losing? This can't be happening. I'm having a fücking breakdown. I don't want to believe the world is so corrupt. I want a future to believe in. I want Perdue to continue to be senator and fix this broken country. I cannot fúcking deal with this right now. It wasn't supposed to be like this, I thought he was polling well in Georgia? This is so fûcked.

so that means the exit poll is just Election Day?

[SnowLabrador]

Wait, so are the exit polls for simply the ED vote, or for all of the vote? If it's the former, Perdue and Loeffler are toast.

This is going to suck. And by suck I mean really suck

Can we start a poorly aging quote train for you like the one Woodbury had? You really deserve it.

We get it. I was relentless about Georgia in November and was wrong by a hair.

This is much much much different ballgame.

Name a (reasonable) number... Venmo wager.

Tonight’s not happening. The cult will prevail, evil over decency wins tonight I’m afraid

No it's everything, but that means that the Election Day vote only dropped the black % by 2 points.
