Folks, Richard Lui (Steve Kornacki's standin) on MSNBC was just talking about this:
Re: Ossoff/Perdue race: Only ~100K votes gap between the 2. Ossoff needs to close the gap and exceed this number to win.
Re: Warnock - this one is practically in the bag. Warnock lead by over 10 percentage points over the GOP opponent. With the 3rd candidate now out hopefully votes will go to Warnock.
Lui pointed out the fact that since 2012 the Senate follows the WH, an assuring fact but we know nothing's for sure. Won't be easy given we need to keep Obamacare, election security, voting rights act, and everything else. I'm thinking now that all other races are over Dems can throw their time & resources to help Ossoff & Warnock win. This is very doable.

(13,061 posts)chickens have come home to roost!! So glad they are so woke and realize the importance of electing good leaders. We have 4 young adults in our family all voting age and they are so jazzed about Biden/Harris win.
Side note: from the clips of all the dancing in the streets in cities across the country, seems at least half are young folks between 15-29. KUDOS to our woke, liberal young people!!

Kinda makes a snake oil peddler wanna pack up his wagon and go home.

I guess there's 58 days for there to be a ground game and air-wave blitz.

(23,288 posts)Loeffler/Collins together outpolled Warnock, and without collins splitting the GOPher vote, I don't see Warnock having an advantage. How do we do this?
