(24,435 posts)And I believe Republicans will stay home. They know Walker isnt qualified, but they voted for him next to Kemp because control of the Senate was on the line. Dems ground game makes this a decisive win.
And holding GA is really important to hold the Senate in 2024 and 2026. Its huge.

(5,075 posts)We have to have that seat.
I sent some money to the campaign, something I never do.

(1,664 posts)Also, 2024 could be a tough set of Senate races. We're defending a lot more turf (since we did well in 2018), and the re-election races will include Montana, Ohio, West Virginia, Arizona, and Nevada.
(Not to mention that we simply cannot have Herschel Fucking Walker as a US Senator.)
The work never ends!

(14,794 posts)they aren't going to give lots of money just to make sure their minority in the senate isn't smaller. And voters aren't going to be psyched to go out to vote between Thanksgiving and xmas for a "kissing your sister" race.
We had a good chance before; they're better now.

(5,410 posts)We need the vote against any of the Mansema bullshit.
Two votes would have been better...
But yes, Democrats should double-down on the runoff. I think we have the advantage.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?
