Georgia sucks, what else is new?

There's no squaring these two:
"I will erase the deficit"
"I've increased the debt by 11.2 Trillion, and the deficit is STILL 2T/year"
And there's nothing 'petty' about recognizing that those can't be squared.

I’d like to see stats on local and state DSA representation. Several large city govts have more than fringe representation. There are at least 6 I believe that align with the DSA running on the federal level in this election; still low numbers but trending upward which should be a troubling sign.
I think we're seeing a combination of factors playing into the Left becoming.. well, embracing what we all figured it was.
Older dems, lets say our parents and grandparents generations, are dying off. They're being replaced by voters that don't share the same values but vote for the same Democrat Party. What used to be a very small minority within the dem tent has increased in %. They're getting more influence and that probably isn't slowing down anytime soon.
This is what I believe played a large role in turning California blue. It wasn't all that long ago that we were still electing Republican governors. But people died off and what replaced them changed things big time. Amnesty played a role too but the biggest difference wasn't Mexicans voting. They had decades to exert their influence and nothing much happened. The dems of Roosevelt and JFK took dirt naps and the younger radicals took over.

Fuel prices are high and I can't afford to walk to my polling station.

No, bro. We don't need you in the voting booth if you're bleeding out. See a doctor, please.

Except for the results on Tuesday. But other than that.
I noticed you left off fuel prices and cost of living.

There is definitely infighting going on. moderate people are trying to teach MAGA voters a lesson that they don’t control the party in places like Texas.
It gets much easier to do that when they feel jaded by being burned by the GOP. Combine that pettiness vote with some people purely being jaded and you stack up Ls
Whereas the dems have been infighting for most of the decade but got run down 2 years ago they can run “moderate” candidates and still have everyone line up behind them.

You say moderates and I somewhat agree but all I’ve been told is staunch conservatives or they’re not voting because Trump isn’t conservative at all, that isn’t moderate area. Staunch conservatives aka libertarian or far right haven’t been voting for maga, now Republican libertarians sure, and they may lose a few.
And I don’t think that’s Georgia’s problem to speak on the subject of thread.

My personal opinion is “staunch conservatives” are like myself in that they care enough about the social issues etc that they may not like Trump/Maga and oppose in the primary but would grumble all the way to the polls and pull the lever in the general.
Moderates are so wishy washy that they won’t show up.

Once again. My opinion.
But Atlanta suburbs are playing the role here.
They are wishy washy enough to say “you know ossoff hasn’t been that bad”

Is there anyone who doesn’t consider them a rigged blue state? If I were a Georgia voter I probably would only vote in primaries to be honest. There’s no trust left in that state when it should be red.

I also don’t believe someone who truly believes themselves to be a “staunch conservative” would allow Dems to take over at all by staying home. There is nothing conservative at all with that mindset.

Staying home is the same as voting for the opposition

Well, the peoblem is that he has no reason to give for Iran. NONE
He could have waited till midterms, and then bombed them. Or let usreal handle their own worries.
Instead, he fricked up the party and the momentum, and now he'll be a lame duck

Atlanta absolutely took advantage of lax mail in during COVID. No question.
Now?
It’s purple not blue. The left is sinking money to protect it and make it at least a battle ground.
I think it’s a result of a smooth talking incumbent with continued migration into Atlanta which is getting to a borderline population to dominate the state in politics.
Herschel Walker had too many issues to overcome last time. I think collins beats warnock

Collins is facing Ossof.
Collins would defeat warnock. I dont think he would get a second chance if he loses.
I do think this race is 50:50. Whomever wins, it will be a recount
