    As I have said for the last few years, there is a staggering amount of talented women leaders emerging in the Democratic Party... they are the future of the Democratic Party... this is the most talented and deep group of women in politics in US history.

    Ossoff just took the lead by about 3600 votes! So long, Perdue!

    If you look at the "Votes remaining" number, this will of course trigger the conspiracy theorists.

    The first black Senator from GA is a Morehouse Man, and his Spelman sister did the groundwork to get him in office. Carry on.

    Gabriel Sterling, the voting systems implementation manager for the Georgia Secretary of State's office,
    says if the Republicans were to lose either or both seats in the Georgia Senate runoff races, then
    the blame "falls squarely on the shoulders of President Trump."

    "When you tell people, your vote doesn't count and has been stolen, and people start to believe that, then
    you go to the two senators and ask the secretary of state to resign and trigger a civil war in the Republican Party
    when we need to unite, all of that stems with his decision-making since the Nov. 3 election,"

    w 98% of votes counted
    • news organizations have declared Warnock the winner over Loeffler, w a margin of ~ 40K votes
    • Ossoff has just taken the lead over Perdue

    Like the logic and reasoning of these people...

    Seriously, if the Dems had this power why is the runoff even a thing? They could just manipulate the vote anywhere in any of the races and win and manufacture a 52-48 lead.

    Why would they manufacture a 50-50 senate when two of their senators, Machin and Sinema, are Democrats in name and hey I appreciate that socially they are liberals but they are otherwise very conservative. Democrats are very bad at manipulating the vote. It's like fixing an NBA game but then stopping with 20 seconds left with the game tied.

    Democrats won't have any mandate to get many progressive things passed but at the very least the Senate can actually vote and debate on policies again.

    Looks like Trump not managing the Covid situation and losing 350k americans, most of which would have voted Trump as they skewed older, then having him mob boss his way on a call - screwed the Senate elections for the GOP.

    Moscow Mitch gets demoted because he failed to Impeach Trump in the first place.

    Karma is a b****, mitch!
