GA-SEN 2022 Megathread: Werewolves and Vampires

[Alben Barkley]

Warnock multiple times tonight:

[Suburbia]

Good-bye Walker.

[President Punxsutawney Phil]

OOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH  YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!!!!!!!

Always good to see you back in style!

[Darthpi – Anti-Florida Activist]

Washington Post has projected for Warnock as well.

[Alben Barkley]

LOL another lead change on MSNBC, tiny lead for Walker now, but still a ton of Fulton and DeKalb left to count.

Feels like God is playing a cruel trick trying to give MAGAts hope only to yank it away over and over and over again.

...with the part of God being played by Lucy Van Pelt...

Brilliant comparison lol

[Horus]

NYT calls it.

"This is effectively the end of Mitch McConnell's obstructive career." - Joy Reid

Hope she's right!

[Comrade Funk]

Warnock is a good man...which is rare for a politician. Herschel ruined his inspirational story by becoming a moronic ass, I'm afraid.

[emailking]

Fox also called it.

[Alben Barkley]

The Needle has called it.

[Alben Barkley]

Warnock's camp thinks Georgia is the next Virginia and will be an easy win for Warnock in six years.

[ηєω ƒяσηтιєя]

Congrats to Raphael Warnock and Georgia!

[Gracile]

NYT officially called it for Warnock.

[MT Treasurer]

'NeverTrump GOP' commentators are really embarrassing themselves as pundits/analysts. Geoff Duncan said on CNN that a stronger Republican would have easily won this race by eight points, as much as Kemp.

Quite obvious that Walker is the least of the GA GOP's problems, as Pollster already alluded to. The closest analogy to this race that I can think of is VA-GOV 2013, and like I said about VA back then (regarding the 2016 presidential race), it’s pretty obvious that the GOP needs a path without AZ/GA for 2024 (NV/WI/PA seems like the most feasible one).

Fantastic!

[Alben Barkley]

This is a great Christmas present, too.

Sometimes good wins, Mr. Potter!

Here's to Raphael Warnock: The richest man in Georgia!

[OSR stands with Israel]

I miss this Georgia:




The Reagan/Bush southern coalition was so awesome and was when southern politics was at its peak

1976 was when Southern politics was at its peak!

[Skill and Chance]

To the extent there was a polling miss (Warnock's margin should grow meaningfully from here so IDK), it's probably related to the swing to Walker in Appalachia.  Pretty evident from Trump's election that Appalachia and similar regions don't answer polls, so that would have been missed.  

[Dani Rose]

Now someone please get Walker to a care facility. I mean, legitimately, even someone as horrible as him needs to be somewhere he can live in comfort and dignity, not on the federal campaign trail.

[riceowl]

(When) will Walker concede?

[Gass3268]

Fox called it

Back when Forsyth county literally banned anyone nonwhite from residing there!

[Ferguson97]

"With Warnock's victory, 2022 the first time since the passage of the Seventeenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, which mandated the direct election of U.S. senators, as well as the first time since the inaugural U.S. Senate elections that every incumbent senator who chose to run for reelection won."

Wow!
