Ossoff is leading by 12,806 votes atm
vitaminalgas
Is it official?

You can hear the trumptards unpacking their clan outfits ...

Maybe if Ossof wins we can pass some legislative protection to keep this kind of shit from happening again?

With all the shit the republican politicians do,why is it always soooo close?

Just kidding...I can't do that...but I would.

Wow. Awsome.

Mates, I afraid to ask, it is not offencive to use word "black" in this context? For me this man just a good gentleman, why it so important

barnsandnobel
I find it kinda crazy that senate elections are like every 2 years and he is the first black senator despite such a large black population.
uudecode5
Thank u, got it!
airwoman
No it's not offensive. It's stating a fact. It would be offensive if they were trying to imply some stereotype or something.
uudecode5
Thank u so much mate, it so difficult to understand another cultute sometimes :)

A little premature, isn’t it?

They are being a little early but there is no way for Loeffler to win at this point. Only liberal areas still to roll in.

Atlanta, mail in and absentee. No way she wins.

CorrugatedUrethra1995
Most votes left to count are in a highly Democrat voting area and he's ahead by 30 thousand as is. Still, maybe wait till tomorrow.
Erutanmi
Not really, he has a 98% chance of winning at this point. Ossoff is around 90%.
SpaceTaco22
God, I will start believing in you if you just let Ossoff & Warnock win. Just come through for once ffs we've suffered enough
theangryjanitor
Praise jesus! Something good might happen next year. Or special interests will maintain the status quo, eh.
LurkingAtTheOffice
Last I checked Ossoff is still behind with 97% counted. The gap is razor thin though. Warnock leads by 30k, Ossoff down 1.5k.
thor0486
Last you checked, sucka, was 3 hours ago.
LurkingAtTheOffice
Now it's 12 hours ago. Crazy how time do that

The counties left to count for Ossoff is highly democratic. There's still hope.

Seriously, as a white guy, POC are the ones saving this country. We need so much more POC in positions of power.

Because.... only black people could vote for Warnock? I’m not sure what you’re saying.
Hogwaller
They were more likely to vote Democratic, and stop the country's slide into Trump's fascist cesspool.
HamburglarHelperr
They’ve been an overwhelmingly repressed voter base, and they came out in full force to exercise their right to be represented.
pizzapartyhard
I’m just going to say this: imagine if only white voters counted. What do you think policy would look like?
letmypeoplego
Conservative af. Like no medicaid conservative. Like gays don't even think about it conservative.
RadicalLeftist
No but theyre the most targeted block in their voting. They have massive power due to their strong community ties.
evilspyre
Nice, she was a total cunt who didn't deserve to be a senator.
Mack1986
First black senator in Georgia seems insane considering Atlanta is sort of a black cultural center. Bluetide is overwhelming the racists
omnicorpse
Yeah but it's been republican leaning for a long time. The rural areas/suburbs have usually been enough to carry the rep vote.

Perdue is doing a Trump. I think anyone reasonable will say Ossoff has won though.

It's still really close. Most left to be counted should plan Ossoff, but it is still too early.

Seems like it's gonna happen. People are saying most of the remaining votes should favor Ossof, he's unlikely to lose at this point.

CilantroGirl
98% reporting. Ossoff - 2,205,082 and Perdue - 2,192,276. It's pretty much over. They won't call it until 99% but it looks like we did it
MaugrimCaptainoftheSecretPolice
HeywouldJablowme
As of now, Ossoff is ahead by 12,000 votes
TChallaVanDam
Dems are still voting their Ossoff. Fuck Mitch McConnell.
LokJok
This is the first time I've heard that phrase. I bequeath +1 to you.
MADchemEE
Ossoff is up by 13,000 right now (03:30 est) My bet is that Ossoff will up by another >15,000 when DeKalb county is fully counted.

livinglife9009
It’s about 19,000 votes uncounted for. Mail in votes in fact.

Ossoff won

It would be awesome if Ossoff wins by 11.780 votes. Terror-Orange would go nuts

he's up by about 12.5k right NOW!!!!!!!

One single peach? Better be the juiciest, sweetest m-f'ing peach to have ever peached then.
KitchenClean
They haven’t completed count of Dekalb and Fulton county, large democratic leaning parts of Atlanta. They’ll count them tomorrow 8 am EST.
Erutanmi
Not really. You’re seeing vote numbers, not remaining vote locations. The rest are known blue locations, he has a 90% win probability.
Muffyns
But 10% chance to lose is still a chance. How to avoid the loss?
omnicorpse
Call your local election officiator and ask them to find some votes?

I'm from the UK, I'm trying to keep up with the Georgia run offs and don't understand why Mitch isn't in the polls. Could someone explain?
ashbee
Because its a vote for Georgia senators, bitchmitch is a Kentucky senator and already holds his position
Tastesicle
(Not American) Mitch has power because of majority vote, and Georgia turning those two blue effectively stymies that power. Like turning
Tastesicle
Enough of the House to make most votes ineffective for your idiot PM's policies.
Tastesicle
Or mine, for that matter.
PxM86
Imagine if BoJo’s majority in the House of Commons was just 2 mp’s. Now imagine that there were 2 special elections where the tories lost.
PxM86
That’s basically what’s going on here. Moscow Mitch is set to lose power because he won’t have the numbers in the senate, not lose his seat.
showa
Thank you that helped a lot
slendfung
Mitch’s ‘majority’position depends on the number of seats his party holds. Republicans lose these 2 seats, they lose the majority threshold
kingkongkeom
So if Ossoff wins its gonna a be 50-50. Does each party add a leader then that can bring things to a vote?
MacaulayCulpable
Kamela Harris would provide the swing vote.
DrMarioSThompson
The vice president is head of the senate and casts a tie breaking vote if necessary so 50+1 for the Dems if they've won both seats
kingkongkeom
Yes of course, that is clear to me. The question I have is that up until now Mitch was the gatekeeper and could decide what will even be
IAmCooCooCaChoo
Bitch McConnell is from Kentucky--thanks for voting him in again Kentucky!. This is a runoff election for Georgia. If both seats are won by
IAmCooCooCaChoo
Democrats, Bitch McConnell loses control of the Senate, and Americans will get the much needed relief they need. And hopefully, fingers
IAmCooCooCaChoo
crossed. Trump gets investigated and ran out of the country for being a fucking asshole. The pieces of shit that he dropped on us gets
IAmCooCooCaChoo
flushed down the toilet and America is once again, hopefully, sane again.
IseeSmartphones
Can’t spell Mitch McConnell without two L’s.

I don't get it, explain please?
ShanOfGreenGables

This is great news! Last time I checked, both Republicans were leading.

Same here, but I rechecked to find oss9f with a 7000 vote lead. Georgia may pull it off.
TheRealGeorgeMcfly
Its that "mail in ballots get counted last" magic
lockeyches
And large counties which lean democratic count longer because they have more people.
Covidnineteen
And less polls
MrStealUrMeme
Actually most of the mail in ballots were counted first. At 60% total votes counted, 90% were the early votes. Beleive me, I've been watchin
InsanityKiwi
Yeah it was blue mirage, red mirage then blue comeback.

Oh, it is you again. The Republican apologist.

Better than being a wife beater supporter
IndianAssWatcher
Funny how you spun “ran over her foot” to wife beater. Medics did not find visible signs of injury on his wife's foot.
IndianAssWatcher
A police report noted that an inspection of Ndoye's foot showed no broken bones, swelling or contusions. So basically a lie. Go home fella.

Yeah, sure. You are supporting oppression, removal of human rights, creating a theocracy, corruption, treason...

There was a malfunction with one of the voting tabulators where votes are now being scanned by hand. Of course republicans are using

this to put fuel on their conspiracy fire. The moment the Republicans started losing Trump tweeted fraud.

Are Republicans demanding to STOP THE COUNT! tonight?

Here we go again...
Lethous
Their messiah is more important to them, they are full stop the steal now. IMO dc police know how tomorrow will go with pence and they don’t
Lethous
Want them there at that point. That “2ndA rights are to kill the politicians when they become tyrants” crowd are the kind of people there
Lethous
And that could potentially get messy. So hopefully we avoid that. Those gravy seals will lose though.
Skywatcher16
oh please. dont let them get away with it. we all know they are using that as an excuse to DEFEND the actual tyrant...
Lethous
Every villain is the hero of their own story. Defending trump to them is saving America from evil. It’s like Washington crossing the Potomac

They romanticize the idea of killing the liberals and saving the kids from Hillary’s non existent pizza crime ring and shit. They are loons

No, its "stop the count" when the republicans are winning. Its "stop the steal" when the democrats are winning.
