If he does not get the 50% + 1 today, he is toast in the general. It's Gingrich's old district so its been Republican since about 1980. If the cumulative Republican vote is 52% or better, Ossoff should just concede now

If there is a (D) the board will not approve. period.

right people started using the term "[fill in the party] In Name Only" because all conservatives are republicans, all libertarians are in the LP, and all liberals are democrats.
brilliant

So this Ossoff guy worked for both John Lewis and Hank Johnson? Im not sure Ive ever seen a more desperate white politician begging for black votes than this guy.

I haven't been following this race but the Rodney Alexander Gambit can be an effective way to gain funding in a crowded race. It is pretty sleazy though, taking Dem money with every intention of switching parties.

Ossify doesn't even live in the district

I think Jon Ossoff has a really good chance to win the special election in Georgia's 6th Congressional district. He's a pretty impressive guy, a scholar, and an accomplished writer, and what's more important, an old fashioned Southern blue dog Democrat who favors a strong national defense and budgetary responsibility. He seems to be as far removed from the Pelosi/Pocahontas wing of the party, as Beethoven is from Spike Jones.
What does the board think about this?
I think he should actually live in the district he wants to represent.

A Democrat that doesn't hold to the majority of the Democratic platform should probably change their party just like a Republican who doesn't hold to the Republican platform.

It's like saying Muslims are really Christians because they mention Jesus in their scriptures. Labels have connotations that mean something, and if a label doesn't accurately reflect that which it is meant to describe, a different label is needed.

No way he wins. if he hadn't got all that coverage, maybe. but he will get the Rs out to the polls.

I think he will vote for Nancy Pelosi and anything she tells him to.

Has the MSM ever asked him what his contribution was to that question he asked the admiral??

The black population is pretty limited in the 6th district.

I see today's talking points are being used by the shills as needed.

Are you saying this is not true? It would be hilarious if he misses the 50% by 1 vote...the one he couldn't cast for himself since he doesn't live in nor vote in the district.
