This morning: No lawsuit, his lawyers say they are considering all options. What a dumpster fire. “A straight man will not go for kids.” - AZDuffman |

Not having the Democrats control the Senate to many outweighs, as you put it, electing the worst senate candidate in history. Do I want a brilliant guy who will vote for multi trillion dollar spending bills or do I want a doofus who will be told to vote against them? If I remember correctly many on this board proudly said they would vote for a potted plant over Trump. I’m sure the other side would vote for a potted plant over Warnock. Walker is the equivalent of the potted plant. I of course could not vote for Warnock under any circumstances. But I also could not pull that lever for Walker. If I lived in Georgia I’d probably write my own name in, like I did in the last presidential election. |

Typical republican these days Spending money way worse then holding a loaded gun to your wife's head threatening murder. Come on conservatives. You want this sicko representing you. Get off the couch and vote Wornock. I vote against candidates all the time because they totally disgust me as human beings. Sometimes it's not about politics. Sometimes it's about making sure a disgusting peice of trash does not get power HuffPost: Herschel Walker's Son Just Backed Up Explosive Allegations Of Domestic Abuse. https://www.huffpost.com/entry/herschel-walkers-son-just-backed-up-explosive-allegations-of-domestic-abuse_n_633caf86e4b08e0e6072a4ee?ncid=NEWSSTAND0001 Sometimes we live no particular way but our own - Grateful Dead "Eyes of the World" |

Its actually pretty common in GA, most major elections have enough random indie and third-party types that there is a good chance of a runoff. You need at least 50% to win, so the more candidates there are the less likely that one (even a popular one) will get the 50 in the first election. I honestly do not know the history, but for GA Senate elections it would not surprise me if many (maybe most) end up in a runoff. I actually think its a good system because it allows people to more freely vote for third parties without being labelled a spoiler. n fact if more States became runoff States I think it could change a lot politically. Though it does suck when you have to wait a few more weeks to determine who will win (which in turn leads to a whole new set of campaign ads splattered everywhere, which can make it seem like perpetual campaign season if its a year with a couple elections...). But, overall I am proponent of the system. |
