Georgia senate seats runoff(s) megathread

[○∙◄☻¥tπ[╪AV┼cVê└]

The needle has Perdue and Warnock right now. I really doubt it'll be a split result though.

[Adam Griffin]

Ossoff doing 12 points better in the mail vote in Murray County (!) than November.

[Alcibiades]

Webster County is 100% in

And it’s swung slightly to both Rs.

[BudgieForce]

Webster County is 100% in

I wouldn't read to much into the reporting precinct percentage.

[ProgressiveModerate]

Webster County is 100% in

And it’s swung slightly to both Rs.

And Loefller is doing better than Perdue!

[Non Swing Voter]

first hot take... the counties are filling in pretty similar to the November election so it's going to be all about what areas turn out more... unless the suburbs really do shift as the CNN exit polls indicate (but I think they're BS).

Extrapolated toplines (with decimals) from the AP VoteCast & Edison exit poll:

AP:
- Perdue 50.3%/Ossoff 49.7%
- Warnock 50.24%/Loeffler 49.76%

Edison (literally exactly the same for both):
- Ossoff 50.32%/Perdue 49.68%
- Warnock 50.32%/Loeffler 49.68%

Hm, I got Warnock and Ossoff with about 50.6 by doing age (on CNN/Edison)

I just did it by gender.

I am going to do a needle dance in the hopes that it influences the needle to bestow good results. Also I encourage everyone to make a sacrifice to the needle (though not one that harms any person or creature).

I had to throw out a sock with too many holes in it yesterday, can that count?

[Adam Griffin]

Webster has 1 precinct and the 100% reporting is likely just in-person vote.

[MillennialModerate]

The needle will go red and never go back by 8pm.

Cash it in. It’s gaining interest.

[wbrocks67]

Also don't forget, the NYT needle had Trump winning by +1.7-3 when there was 43% in.

[brucejoel99]

Please stop posting exit polls. It’s not like they matter.

This is an election. Elections produce exit polls. This is literally the "Talk Elections" forum. No, the "Talk Elections" forum isn't gonna stop talking about an aspect of an election.

[Ljube]

I am updating my projection:

51-49 victory for Republicans

[LimoLiberal]

Dems better hope there's a single black precinct outstanding in Webster. 91% of it's Nov total and it swung 4 points to Rs.

omg we're really doing this again when we either don't know or people are misinterpreting the % as whether it's actually done or not

[ultraviolet]

Oh my god WHO CARES. Nothing matters until 7.

Isnt that exactly what you said before lol

[Hindsight was 2020]

Honestly I’m just more sad it will be this close considering how bad both reps ran their campaigns

[Xing]

Ah, I see we're overreacting right on schedule.

[The Undefeatable Debbie Stabenow]

Dems better hope there's a single black precinct outstanding in Webster. 91% of it's Nov total and it swung 4 points to Rs.

It's also one very small county that is not necessarily indicative of statewide results.

[Hope For A New Era]

Just thought I’d point out that Webster has less than 3000 people.

[Alcibiades]

Fulton just had its first set of results drop.

Wasserman has suggested Webster is close to done.

Yep. Especially if they win.
