Georgia senate seats runoff(s) megathread

[redjohn]

All the exit poll indicates is that there's no landslide for either side. They don't look amazing from a Republican or Democratic POV. We've had reports on both sides of good turnout, which is of course what partisans would have us believe. Let's just wait and see.

Elite candidate David Perdue is about to beat the breaks off of Jon Ossoff tonight.

Early exit polls were nonsense in November, they'll probably be nonsense now.

[Dr Oz Lost Party!]

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

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

That's awful... not in the sense that it's a bad indication for our chances here (it's not), but in the fact that over 40% of Georgians think the election was unfair despite there being not a shred of evidence that indicates wrong doing. It's both scary and disheartening.

Northam had a commanding lead this morning but the race has gotten really tight.

That’s it. It’s time to put country over party and go perdue warnock. Perdue is the leader we need in these trying times, let’s hear it for the perdue warnock voters 🥳

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

I am replying to your post to notify that you have been put on IGNORE. Perdue-Warnock voters are the scum of the earth

You need to stop talking about Georgia. Seriously, go find something else to do.

I'm not sure why everyone is obsessed with the 2017 gubernatorial election in my state. It won't be a "redux" of that election.

I tried to bring it up online and that computer jammed.

It's an iconic election that defined the political trends of the next 3 years. I remember watching NoVA come in better for Northam than for Hillary and realizing the suburban trend was real.

Georgia pubs can probably see the writing on the wall both that the state is trending D and that fighting the results of the election is not a winning issue to gain additional voters.

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

looking at that turnout map by precinct it seems like turnout is fairly uniform across the county.  what am I missing?

Oh good there's plenty of time for a mental breakdown before the polls close.

Plus it was the first big Democratic victory of the Trump era.

this can't possibly be good for Republicans if accurate.

Also, the Cherokee lines people keep talking about seem real but if you look at the early voting numbers, Cherokee had the third lowest turnout of any county in the state.  So they needed massive improvement there and there was a lot of room for it.

Welp, whatever happens, this isn’t going to be a redux of what happened in 2008

Which would result in higher black share overall since the EV was more black right?
