I hope their replacement never went to any parties in high school or college

250000 voters who voted Republican in November stayed home in January thanks to Lin Wood.

“250000 voters who voted Republican in November stayed home in January thanks to Lin Wood.”

That’s what’s called a “non sequitur” fallacy, because your conclusion does not follow from the facts you stated.

The conclusion “thanks to Lin Wood” is wrong because turnout ALWAYS drops off in a runoff election versus the turnout in the general election. ALWAYS. Even when Lin Wood doesn’t say a word. The fact is that in 2021 the runoff turnout dropped off by 35% LESS than the dropoff in the 2 previous runoffs in Georgia, meaning that fewer people skipped the runoff than did in recent years. Essentially, runoff turnout was MUCH HIGHER than would be expected in normal circumstances, not lower.

You would need an audit to figure that out I think.

The drop off from November was magnitudes of order higher in Republican areas as compared to Blue areas.

Your comparison to prior run offs is what is off base. Georgia was using the new mail in and expanded absentee rules which would generate higher turnout anyway.

Compare the GOP drop off to the Democrat drop off.

Lin Wood and his band of Soros sucking hacks are absolutely to blame. You can stamp your feet and pretend otherwise, but it won’t alter reality.

L Wood is a pure pos for telling conservatives not to vote in the elections that flipped the senate. The republic is in mortal danger as a result.

Case closed and hope he rots in Hell.

They’re afraid he’ll live long enough for the Senate to revert to republicans, or a republican president is elected.

We need for there to be no vacancies on the SCOTUS the rest of this year and next. I’m confident we will retake the Senate then and can block any Biden nominee until 2024.

When I saw the headline I thought they were talking about Roberts.

66 and white. Very doubtful.

Stop. That creep caused two Georgia losses. Stop sticking up for that useless jerk.

Right, because Lin Wood is all powerful and there can’t be any possible other reason why the GOP didn’t get enough votes to win the runoff. Lin Wood just mind controlled all the voters in the state, and they have no self control and are not responsible for their own actions.

That’s the ticket!

Since there was a 35% increase in turnout in the 2021 runoff from the previous two runoff elections in Georgia, it doesn’t seem like your narrative matches reality.

So Lin Wood has no credibility and no voters listened to him.

I don’t know how many listened to him, but obviously it couldn’t be very many if the turnout was so high for a runoff election.

Yep. The jerk convinced 750,000 to sit out. And since you love him so much, what has he done to get all the praise he gets from you?

What praise?

Well throughout the thread you seem to stick up for him. I’m just curious as to what he did to get that. I might have missed something positive he’s done.

“Well throughout the thread you seem to stick up for him.”

I don’t give a rat’s patootie about Lin Wood, which is why you can’t actually quote me ever “praising him”, since it never happened.

I do take a bit of exception to the idea that the GOP “owns” our votes and if we don’t behave like trained rats, then we should be berated for it, or if the GOP loses an election, it’s the voters’ fault, not their fault, or the fault of bad candidates. Or that if someone didn’t vote, it must be because they were brainwashed by some Svengali on the interwebz. Especially if the numbers don’t really back up the claims that are being made.

Hell, I don’t even live in Georgia, but if you want to bad mouth conservative voters in GA to blame them for our woes, when the primary responsibility lies far to the left of them, at least one person around here should say otherwise.

Got it. I understand. I’m not from Georgia either. I was just wondering if I missed something. I did not thankfully.
