CNN has called it for Warnock as well.

I looked at the Georgia State website (https://results.enr.clarityelections.co ... /#/summary) and the counties that are left with any sizable population are all breaking for Warnock by at least 10+ points.

No, it'd be bad if he or Sinema made it official.

Jez I think he will end up winning by a large margin. I won't say landslide because I don't want to be ridiculed.

What disturbs me is that the vote is this close when the republicans would have been ahead if they’d run a dead cat instead of Walker.

I keep saying republicans would vote for Pilo Dogturds (R) just because of the R.

Who is going to get blamed for this disturbing turn of events?

ETA: I mean, whose genius idea was it to put up Walker for the Senate?

To be fair, Manchin's reign ended once there were 218 votes in the House.

Refreshing to see this result, and the differene in votes with +/- 80000 is sizable enough. Will we still have a Fraudit in GA?

I don't think we have seen TFG having spaghetti before, but my thought is he would use a knife and fork like he does with New York style pizza.

Also, I have it on good authority that Mar a Lago now only stocks plastic bottles of ketchup, so there has been less smash and splattering going on.

On the senate runoff, Warnock isn't a standout candidate himself, IMHO. We need to do better in the future if we manage to limp through this against someone like Walker as an opponent.

I dunno… Warnock has an appealing persona, a sort of dignifying ordinariness.

So, then he could do to the GOP what he's practiced doing to the Democrats? Sounds interesting...

But the Democrats still have VP Harris. It wouldn't work as well.

I think he would still be more of an influencer as a Democrat.
