Georgia senate seats runoff(s) megathread

[TiltsAreUnderrated]

The good thing about Filibuster reform is that you can apply it to certain types of legislation not to everything Schumer can eliminate the filibuster to DC and PR statehood but not apply to other pieces of legislation like weed legalization or Green New Deal, that's why Ds must win both races,😆😆😃

If you remove it for one kind of legislation, that almost guarantees it will be removed for another. PR and D.C. are potentially edge cases because the legislation would be enacted on the bases of referenda that had already passed, but I doubt the Senate Republican caucus will accept that.

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?

All Perdue-Warnock voters are sexists or just dumb.

No, I'm serious. Perdue isn't fundamentally different than Loeffler.

Perdue hasn't been credibly accused of COVID-19 based insider trading recently.

This is not to say that Loeffler is guilty or that it will lead to meaningful levels of ticket splitting, but presumably some voters believe that.

That story got a lot less traction. The only four for whom the allegations were significant enough to warrant an investigation were Feinstein, Inhofe, Loeffler and Burr.

This really needs to be a bigger thing. Our senators are such crooks.

If totally true as described, Lean Perdue -> Likely Ossoff

Do you think GA-SPECIAL is likely Warnock?

Do you think GA-SPECIAL is likely Warnock?

No, but if Perdue is about to be busted by the FBI (assuming Ossoff's description isn't false or spin), he's pretty unlikely to win.

No, but if Perdue is about to be busted by the FBI (assuming Ossoff's description isn't false or spin), he's pretty unlikely to win.

Gillum kept it pretty close under FBI investigation and barely ran behind Nelson. I don't think that shifts enough votes to move the race from lean R to likely D this far out.

[It’s so Joever]

I made an **s of myself for being a Democrat “doomer” this last election, so I will do it again but in reverse.
Yes
Both Ossoff and Warnock will easily overperform their polling and Atlas will be shocked if (bold if) nothing changes at this rate.

Also Ossoff and Warnock will get nearly the exact same percentage. Split ticket voting is a no-go these days.

Has anyone been able to deduce anything from the early mail-in ballot request numbers?

New Internet Ad Warnock tweeted out.

And a tweet from Leoffler.  Apparently, she is horrified that Warnock wants to end cash bail.  I guess she thinks the amount of money in your bank account should decide who waits for trial in jail and who does so in the comfort of their home...

I'm not sure this is the best issue for Loeffler (The wealthiest member of the Senate).  Of course, FoxNews will likely turn "Cash Bail" into a boogey man phrase- and less than 10% of their viewers will have a clue what cash bail is even referring to.

If voters really cared about their Senators being crooks and cheating in the stock market, Doug Collins would be Warnock's opponent.

In my district the Republican tried using support for ending cash bail against Gottheimer and attempted to equate it to defunding the police. It obviously didn't work in that instance, but that's the real strategy here-exaggeration.

[KaiserDave]

In a state senate race near me, the Republican tried to make cash bail a wedge issue. He lost.

It was a seat that Dems flipped in 2018, and will retain.

No, it’s far too early. Only thing I noticed was over 300K new registered voters since the general election.
