I can't believe how far these cuck libs have fallen that they're pinning all their hopes on a 30 year old inependent filmmaker who lives in his mom's basement. Unreal!

Just learned that Jon @Ossoff, who is running for Congress in Georgia, doesn't even live in the district. Republicans, get out and vote!

Right that's why I asked. Especially in the northern suburbs. Taking that into account, he might actually get to 50%.

He grew up in the 6th district and this was an unexpected election. He only lives 10 min away.

Speaking as a millenial, I don't think millenials are as progressive as the media makes us out to be (thank God).

Just speaking from my perspective though.

doubtful. the thing is its very conservative, and he had early momentum until the race got attention. everyone is paying attention, the Rs will show up.

Also the only religion that really only votes within its religious framework is christian. this is probably just an issue with population size and candidates.

You mean the guy who's so home town that he can't even vote in his race because he's not even living in that district?

Sorry arse troll, you are.

The vast majority of his campaign funding comes from outside his district, from Hollywood types and other run-of-the-mill liberals. As long as that's the case, nothing differentiates him from the base.

As a 30 year old, I say frick your sorry arse shite.

I hate when idiots try to say I'm a millineal. I don't wear gay clothes, I don't give a shite about gay cars and I don't want gay people using the wrong bathrooms. I have a career, not a job. I don't live with my mom or share a house with someone because I have a nice house of my own since I have a career of my own. One day, you'll leave that job at Starbucks and have a rude awakening. Or maybe you won't, because your feelings probably get hurt too easily for a real career.

I think Jon Ossoff has a really good chance to win the special election in Georgia's 6th Congressional district.

Have you people not learned anything about polls since November? LINK

"The second question voters were asked their preferred candidate in the Congressional District 6 race, the results were, 18.31% Jon Ossoff (D), 17.98% Karen Handel (R), 13.42% Bob Gray (R), 7.98% Judson Hill (R), 3.05% Amy Kremer (R), 2.82% Ron Slotin (D), 2.11% Dan Moody (R), 0.45% Bruce LeVell (R), while 33.90% were supporting another candidate or were undecided. TFG conducted this survey of 450+ respondents from a random stratified selection of likely 2017 special Congressional election voters. The margin of error is +/- 4.5."

"The Trafalgar Group is widely recognized as the best polling firm of the 2016 election cycle, correctly forecasting the results in key battleground and other states (PA, FL, NC, MI, OH, CO, GA) and exactly predicting the Trump electoral college margin of victory (306-232). The results and information of their polls have been featured in thousands of U.S. and global news stories, television networks, and high-profile polling web sites like Real Clear Politics."

Not so fast, my friend.


He will lose soundly in a runoff election. So much for Hollywood money trying to influence an election in Georgia.

Liberalism has failed.

OSSOFF proves the left does not vote for someone but rather against someone

Why else would you vote for a 30 year old with zero on his resume that says he would be a great representative of his constituents?

Except for his history as a legislative aide, his degree from the London School of Economics, his company that produces documentaries on govt corruption...

I don't get it. Why doesn't he live in the district? I mean, his official response was he wanted to live where he does because he wanted his girlfriend to be closer to work. But...a quarter mile?
Would that quarter mile be too much more for her to handle?
