Fulton EV came in. He's at 62% with 31k/50k votes.

This is looking eerily similar to the way November 8th went.

He has blown away the most optimistic expectations for early vote tallies. 57% of Cobb County. Unbelievable.

Nah, he'll hit the high forties but I don't think he takes this one home tonight. Runoff might be possible though.

He lives a mile outside the district and he's lived in the district for his entire life until very recently. It's a meaningless last minute gotcha talking point from the RNC in a race that has them scared.

33% of votes in and Ossoff is at 62%

Good wake call for the GOP House. They better pass Trump's agenda.

I was skeptical before, but at this rate he will take it....Things can always change and I am saying only based on the early better-then-best-case estimates.

Democratic turnout seems even higher then in Kansas based on that, which if he managed to just maintain the Kansas ratio would hand him victory outright tonight. If he is doing even better.....

I don't know. Given the early vote over performance, it's going to be close.

Pundits calling the race for Ossoff. If trends continue, GOP looks to lose both chambers in 2018 and the WH in 2020.

Trump is quickly destroying the GOP apparently. Not a good sign

Hard to really say much yet, but it does look good for the Democrats thus far.

Watching Fulton returns and Cobb county turnout.

Even if Ossoff does win, your statements are demonstrably false.

They deserve to lose both fricking chambers. The just cried and cried for 8 fricking years they have done absolutely nothing besides sit on their asses complaining.
