Georgia senate seats runoff(s) megathread

[MillennialModerate]

Atlas has a doomer issue. I know it's obvious but we seem to forget it every time we get an exit poll or a red mirage. Give me a break and don't bemoan how we're screwed until we get some raw votes, okay?

Just the opposite - this site is way way way too optimistic for Dems and if you contradict that you’re ostracized to an insane degree. Sometimes people on this site ignore reality even if it slaps them in the face. “doomers” were a lot closer to being correct then incorrect in November. Everyone on here was talking about a Biden landslide “cOuLd hE wIn TeXaS?!” and “how disappointing will it be if we only get 52 Senate seats?!?!?

My prediction is the physical electorate will be that you would expect in a good year for Democrats but they will vote as if it’s a good year for the GOP, largely cancelling out.

If you look at where voters are coming from, Democratic areas have the strongest turnout, but exit polls suggests that the GOP leads (again, lots of salt)

Does anyone have anything relevant to say?

I think if polled right now most ppl on this site would think the republicans are slightly favored. I think the issue is people grandstanding and parading that this is a blowout and they know the results now when the data we're getting is at best mixed (and obviously kind of cryptic).

You literally cannot speak on this issue as you doomed GA forever in Nov.

Most of this is ridiculous doomer-ing from Dems who are trying to set expectations low for themselves. Not sure why they continuously choose the megathread to act like this, but oh well. I don't have major expectations either way, probably Tilt R but not because of these exit polls. Who knows what'll happen.

Also there are like few people that really does overreact to exit polls and such, but there are dozens of those who uses their posts to inaccurately show how this site is all doom and gloom for Dems when it's basically a Dem campaign office.

If ANYONE knows where you can wager on these races let me know.

I saw the Dems as FAVORITES today and I nearly had a seizure

im not sure what to make of this, it just seems that Georgia republicans are just crazier but not necessarily more numerous

[forsythvoter]

Just took a look through the exit polls and they do look better for the Rs than the Ds. Once the votes start coming in, we'll see if the margins are matching the exits, but I would rather be the Rs if the numbers are true.

It's also unhelpful that no one is taking any notes on the AP/VoteCast ones, which were a bit more accurate in November. But it's quite possible all of these get updated in a different direction

Someone earlier in the thread said CNN was counting mail-in and early voters. They put up a paragraph from CNN's website explaining their methodology.

Same. It's too much. See y'all on the other side!

If Warnock and Ossoff are elected will their bond be strong enough to rejuvenate Jimmy Carter as Rey and Ben’s did for the Emperor in Rise of Skywalker?

[Bootes Void]

Bet on the republicans. If they win you win the bet. But if they lose you get $2k checks so it’s a win either way

[Gracile]

I don't really have much to add (not really importing much in these exit polls); I'm just waiting here for the results to trickle in.
