Wow. Warnock and Loeffler at a perfect 50-50 split with 67% reporting.

It's trending for the Dems from what I'm seeing. They are outperforming Biden in every area. Trust the NYT needles!

Good, hard to tell from the map I was watching. Says 1 million votes left but the map seems like it's less...

It's looking VERY good. Some are already calling the one race. The dumpster fire may have lost Georgia 3 times.

Next step is to get a fresh look at Loeffler and Purdue's insider trading back in Feb./March and prosecute them one or both for extra effect.

That would make me...what's the word? "Happy." I forget what that feels like.

I had expected the R's to take both seats.

I hope enough people wanted that $2000 check to go vote Dem.

I paid no attention to Trumps visit the other day to rally the kids. Did he once again bitch and moan and spit and fuss and then at the end mention their names? hehe

Is everyone using that Decision Desk site to keep up?

I actually was optimistic which if you know me is bizzaro world. Reason being is that there's only so much shit Trump can get away with before it crumbles. It always crumbles.

Everything left is going to swing Dems. Think of PA and the wave of pain. That's what is about to happen. And it will be awesome. They should be live streaming Trump.

When is Dominion going to get around to flipping and dumping the fraud Dem votes in? Come on. I want to get to bed. Everyone knows the Rs in GA will be helping the Dems cheat again. Let's just get it over with.

Meanwhile, Trump is GOING BONKERS.

Edit: Trump deleted it. Probably because it was dated January 5th, 2020 and his team has such attention to the details. :)

Essentially, it was a tweet saying that the NYT article about Pence telling Trump he couldn't do anything tomorrow was #FakeNews and that Pence was going to toss the election tomorrow.

CNN: Attorney who assisted Trump on call with Georgia officials resigns from law firm
National law firm Foley & Lardner previously said it was "concerned" with Mitchell's involvement in Trump's call with Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger, and said the firm wasn't engaged in any legal work challenging the election results. Tuesday, it announced Mitchell was no longer with the firm.

"Cleta Mitchell has informed firm management of her decision to resign from Foley & Lardner effective immediately. Ms. Mitchell concluded that her departure was in the firm's best interests, as well as in her own personal best interests," firm spokesman Dan Farrell said in a statement Tuesday. "We thank her for her contributions to the firm and wish her well."
...
Law firms, which often take pride in representing unpopular positions, rarely react strongly to political discourse. But Trump's weekend call to the Georgia officials and insistence in trying to change the election's result has been perceived by the legal community to be extraordinary and, in many instances, ethically and democratically out of bounds.
...
Mitchell's involvement took some by surprise. CNN previously reported that several senior officials had been unaware that Mitchell was working with the President until she surfaced on Trump's call with Raffensperger.

Can we get a turtle cam going? I'd love a Youtube style live reaction to the election being called for Warnock and Ossoff.

And of course Trump comments about the drop and how we'll see how many votes they need. Of course implying cheating again. Tomorrow is going to be super fun. Glad I don't live in a big city.

He needs to be punished after he leaves office. Harshly and decidedly. I envision a Count of Monte Cristo scenario...but he is jailed in Chris Christie’s cellar and has to fight him for pop tarts.

I'm watching the WaPo results and I'm not seeing the reason to be hopeful that some here are.

edit: I scrolled down the page and see their prediction of the remaining votes.

The back of envelop math in DeKalb sees them winning even if the current trends decay a bit towards the Republicans.

Had to get the election watchers out so they can get to the frauding. This is a real claim I've seen several times on Twitter tonight.
