I still can't square this. It still makes me twitch.


Kemp is:

Pro-Gun
Anti-Abortion
Anti-illegal immigration
Anti-taxes

Warnock is:

Anti-gun
Pro-abortion
Pro-illegal immigration
Pro-taxes



You voted for both.

You are either a moron, or a troll, or I'm just a simpleton who can't understand the thought process of someone as smart as you.

Low information voters.

Over the weekend, my wife who doesn't watch any news, saw an ad on the football game we were watching with Warnock's ex-wife talking about what a piece of shite he is, running over her foot, etc. She was shocked, "what the hell is this?" I said "have you been living under a rock?" These people are out there, intelligent professional people "normies" that simple don't follow politics, they are just NPC's. Yes my wife is one. But she did vote for Kemp! I highly suspect she voted for Warnock or skipped that vote.

I was in and out in 5 mins in Cobb. Voted straight repub ticket, except for SOS where I went libertarian.
My sister-in-law who is about 25 said she voted for Warnock because of "roe vs wade". Young people are myopic and thing the world revolves around single issues. I said..."so you voted for the preacher with no political experience, who abused his wife and who touts the praises of Castro in his sermons? Ok, gotcha".
This country is screwed.

So it upsets you because your wife and I voted the same way?

Dem crossover in the primary is the only reason Raffy was even on the ballot. But I still had to vote for someone pretending to be a republican, poorly I might add, over an admitted democrat for a position that literally oversees the election process in Georgia.

If you post here, it means you aren't "low information" status. I give a pass to low-information voters. When you have all the information, and still vote the way you do, you are a moron.

Maybe you are angry at your wife but taking it out on a stranger instead. Understandable.

He's not a conservative. He's a swing voter/moderate/whatever.

No conservative would ever vote for Biden or Warnock. It's completely disqualifying and shows you to be untethered.

The little tee-hee-hee people "I'm an independent and vote for the best person for the job tee hee hee" low info people. Arrogant in their ignorance. Riding caps, doc martins, Mighty Mighty Bosstones record on vinyl, very similar to libertarians.

Voted at 2:15 in Cherokee-by-God-county. Very short line.
Kemp
Walker
The libertarian candidate who was running against Rat-burger.

Edit - Those were my selections, anyway. Whatever QR code reading frickery happened after that, there is absolutely no way of telling. Seriously. How the frick can you be certain that the QR code on the paper ballot that is printed actually represents the votes you cast? Sure, there is a list below the QR code, but unless they do a hand recount there is no way to be sure.

Just a quick update from here in NE Gwinnett. Apparently all of the schools that are used as polling places have seen huge turnouts.

Today was a digital learning day (teachers in the building, students working online at hone) but both the high school and elementary school in our area have had packed parking lots all day.

School the better half works at had a ton of people pretty much all day she said.

Early voting for me in Forsyth County Friday. The people there said it had been crazy all week. Hoping polls had a good turnout today for my county.

Yep. Same here. If I saw an R, I checked the box. Didn’t need to think twice about it.
