As it turns out, Libertarians ARE good for something [View all]

I was just looking at the current Georgia Senate vote and GOPer Senator Purdue is barely below the 50% threshold to avoid a runoff. Shane Hazel, the Libertarian candidate, has 2.3% of the vote and I suspect that he drew largely from right leaning voters.

SO, thanks go out to the Libertarian for getting Jon Ossoff through to a runoff.

Purdue 2,436,951
Ossoff 2,325,815
Hazel 112.618
