Georgia 6th Congressional District (GA06) Special Election- Primary
Decision Desk HQ ^ | April 18, 2017

Posted on 04/18/2017 3:08:04 PM PDT by SMGFan

The most competitive special Congressional election yet has arrived, and we will be providing returns live tonight right here. In addition to our district-wide totals, we will be analyzing county and precinct level returns. For the Democrats, the hope is that Jon Ossoff can pull out an outright win tonight- if he gets over 50% of the vote in this crowded field, he’s in as the district’s new Representative in Congress. If he falls short, then he will face off against one of four likely Republican opponents in a runoff on June 20th: Karen Handel, Bob Gray, Judson Hill, or Dan Moody. Polls close at 7pm and we anticipate at least early vote tallies to begin rolling in shortly thereafter. Refresh this page for the latest results tonight out of Georgia.

Ossoff 48.61 %

177 of 210 precincts reporting

2 of 3 counties complete

Runoff June 20th!

"We have a lot of really hard work ahead of us, and it starts now, but friends we’ll celebrate a little tonight and then we need to consider that it just might be time to send another set of pearls to Washington. So let’s celebrate and get some sleep and hit the ground running tomorrow so on June 20th we keep the 6th District red and kick a little Ossoff."

Nate Cohn‏-

There's around 15k GOP-leaning vote left. I'd guess that brings him down to around 47.7 when it's all through.

I live in GA-6. I’ve heard Ossoff speak a million times in the endless wave of TV ads he’s been running.

This is the first time I've heard Pajama Boy's voice. Absolutely turned my stomach. He sounded exactly like Barry Obama.

Even Don Lemon and his idiot commie guests were surprised at how much Ossoff sounds like Obama.

I cannot believe the childishness of the Dems.

Believe it. They're morons, intellectually and emotionally, with no idea how the real world works or how to function in it. It's as if they didn't realize there are actually two national parties, and that the feckless fool Obama wasn't going to be in office forever.

Easy solution: break the stack into four parts, run each part separately. Incorporate the votes from the three stacks that didn’t produce an error. And repeat. After the third pass, you have 98 percent counted, and a tiny little stack to hand check.


There you go gettin’ all logical and everything! That takes all the fun out of it. ;-)

Commie CNN now "projects": There will be a runoff in June between Jon Ossoff and Karen Handel.

Just as you said. :)

Crowd at Pajama Boy's HQ chanting "Flip the Sixth! Flip the Sixth!"

*barf*

Good, but I'm still astounded that an idiot leftist Pajama Boy would get that much of the vote in a "ruby red" district in Georgia. Depressing.

The D’s threw a lot of money at this guy in the hopes they could steal it .... it will be interesting to see how much(or little) they throw at him in the next 2 months.

Does he say “uh uh uh” and “I I I” and “shore” instead of “sure”? Obama off the teleprompter sounded like a dunce.

you know, not every dysfunctional use of technology by a typically incompetent local government is a massive conspiracy.

Nate Cohn‏-

It's possible there are ~1500 heavily Democratic mail-in ballots that aren't included (haven't checked), but not enough to avoid a runoff._

I heard scrambling going on at the NYT.

“that much of the vote in a “ruby red” district in Georgia”

He had lots of money and the R’s didn’t get on TV until a few weeks ago...also people keep saying that this district went for Romney and not Trump so much because they are too conservative for Trump...Romney is a CONSERVATIVE??????
