Abbot is going to win by 10+

Paxton will trail him solidly but he has a zero % chance of losing

I have it at Abbot 11% Paxton 5%

I think they’re a slight favorite but there’s zero % chance it reaches those margins.

Trump carried by 3.2%
They elected Cooper twice in Gubernatorial races and I don't think Whatley is well-liked.

Georgia will elect a Democratic Senator because white people make up 48% of the population of Georgia.

Demographics is destiny.

Ossoff won't get over 50%

Absurd. Kalshi Markets rates this contest as Safe for the incumbent, with over a 95% likelihood of an Ossoff win.

Republican donors are diverting funds out of Georgia and North Carolina, in favor of Kansas and South Carolina, in an attempt to shore up those now shaky senatorial campaigns.

“Call your shot” is consistently misused to mean “predict something”. “Call your shot” means more than “predict something”; it means “predict how something will come about”. And more specifically, it means how something will come about through my agency.

It comes from games of Put Out/Horse.

My gut tells me Ossoff wins. The blue islands (metro Atlanta, etc.) are getting bigger. I’ve seen a ton of ads from his campaign and very little from Collins. I’ve heard folks connected to state level politics say that Ossoff comes across to many as moderate and a lot of folks credit him with getting funding for state projects.

I’m disappointed to say that I don’t expect Collins to win.

You're not in Texas. Hispanic voters have shifted BACK to the Democratic party, DISAPPROVING of Republicans now by a 67% -- 29% margin.

To quote a great philosopher named James Carville, "it's the economy, stupid", and for most working-class Texans, the economy sucks, thanks to an affordability crisis.

Abbott and Dan Patrick are currently in Toss-up elections, and Ken Paxton's Senate campaign is going in the wrong direction for him-- that race is now rated as "Lean Democratic" by Kalshi Markets.

I work at Georgia southern and do political research for a living so while I don’t live in Texas I can say confidently almost everything you just said is not true, or if at most charitable extreme hyperbole.

There’s literally only like 3 polls that are worth paying attention to because literally everyone else is doing a push poll.

Those are Rasmussen
Seth Ketchell
And usually Harvard/Harris


So you cant accuse me of bias when I’m saying one right leaning one center lean one left lean

I’m 43 and barely watch network TV anymore

What I have seen is Mike Collins running YouTube ads nonstop Ossoff anything for making fun of him on how much he spends on makeup to calling him out for not voting to protect girls sports

Simply not true that Collins is not spending any money. I think he’s using it wisely as opposed to spending it on local NBC CVS ABC affiliates.

Use brave browser personally so I haven’t seen an internet ad in years but watching UGA on Hulu on the living room tv I see Collins adds all the time

Texas- Paxton by a + 5 margin
Maine- Collins but a tilt margin (meaning less than 1.5%)
Michigan- El-Sayed by a 3%> margin
Georgia- Ossof by a 3%> margin
