I thught Max Burns and Mac Collins had a chance to take away two Dem House seats in Georgia. Last I saw, Burns had fallen behind a bit but Collins was still ahead. Any FReepers in GA have up-to-date info? Just a quick response will be fine, many thanks.

Close but no cigar.

If that's true, then did we break a record.

I had the understanding that if the GOP failed to pick-up either of these seats that this would be the first time in forever that one party failed to take a single seat from the other party in either the House, Senate or Governorships.

What an ass-kicking. This is sad.

I really hope Burns and/or Allen can win and give us something - SOMETHING positive from this election.

Ugh!

Drat. Well, thanks fellas.

What about the Julia Carson seat in Indiana...last night Dickerson the REpub was leading there. Did that one fall by the wayside, too?

Georgia? I'd really like to see an investigation of at least one of these states. double,triple, quadruple voting?

This was really disappointing. They should have been easy pick ups. The day of non-thinking continues to pay off for the Dems.

Well not really. That was true in 1994 with the GOP sweep, so unless 16 years ago is "forever" then it wasn't that long ago the GOP kept the Dems. from taking any new territory.
