    Depends. Have they called Arizona and Nevada? If Dems hold they have a one person advantage with Pennsylvania pickup. If they lose one, it's up to Georgia.

    Not called yet. Looks like those would be a split.

    Can Warnock get the younger voters to come out again? You know the people that voted for Walker will be back at the polls. Hard enough getting the youth vote out once, let along twice.

    That's a good point. Runoff could bring out a completely different mix of voters. And there may be a lot of voters who made a point of getting out there to vote for local races or measures that might not be as motivated for this.

    I don't see an a priori reason to think the voter makeup of this GA runoff will be different than the makeup of the GA runoffs 2 years ago.

    Yes. Are they tired of saving the day, yes. But, if Senate control, and the Republicans having control of both the Senate and House comes down to them, they will vote.

    We will find out on December 6th but you definitively answering that seems a little far fetched ... I'm sure both parties will be in full on "DOOMSDAY" mode for that one, thank God I don't live in Georgia to have to hear the bombardment of ads that those people will face (among other reasons.)

    They came out for the last run off. Like barfo said, I don't see a reason they won't again. But, yeah both parties will go all out, especially if Nevada and Arizona split.

    Christian is an interesting case.

    He acts like people are saying that the GOP did good, "had a great midterm season", when most, if not everyone, is saying they underperformed. Also funny that he's accusing people of gas lighting republicans, when they're the king of gas lighting.

    Also, and probably the biggest and funniest part of all of this...I guess....rant (?) was that it's people like him and the people who are obnoxious, are the #1 reason why the GOP didn't win.

    Imagine voting for someone who you have no idea what he supports.

    It certainly isn't his children.

    The thing is, they don't care if he doesn't know what he supports. The only thing they care about is that he's a yes vote for the religious zealots of our country, furthering their hellbent quest to control the country with their religious horse shit.

    Both he, and Creep Throat, are just an ends to a mean. They don't give a shit about how dumb they are, how hypocritical they are, or how blisteringly idiotic they are, as long as them being in charge or in power gives them authority to control others.
