SANDY SPRINGS, Georgia — Republican Karen Handel has won the special congressional election in Georgia, fending off a strong challenge from Democrat Jon Ossoff in the heavily Republican House district, according to a projection by NBC News.
Handel’s victory in the closely fought contest, which drew national interest and was the most expensive House race ever at over $40 million, comes as good news for President Donald Trump. Democrats had promoted the contest as a referendum on the president.
Rarely, if ever, has a single congressional race attracted this much attention or been freighted with so much meaning.

This win feels damn good, not as good as Trump winning, but real good.
You are correct, sir! The boy never had a chance! He he...
Thank you Lord. Let it be for Your benefit.
All that money could’ve been used for medical care for poor people. They’re supposed to care about the poor, no? Commiewood is largely composed of jerks.
Thanks for that report. Hopefully Karen knows which side her bread is buttered on!
Whew.
That scares exactly no one.
“This win feels damn good, not as good as Trump winning, but real good.”
It’s an affirmation of the Trump victory.
And, once again another rebuff of the establishment.
Soros has thousands of those amounts to give.
Their bread and butter, or rather soy and arugula.
Maybe in places like where you live that may be true, but along the coasts of this country, they are still "Trumping up charges" on the President (pun intended) on an hourly basis.
Listening to the news in any of those places, you would be convinced that Republicans have horns, killed Christ, and burn Democrat children ritually after drinking their blood!
“don’t believe polls that claim the President is unpopular.”
Excellent point. Tonight’s results back you up.
Yes, I know he endorsed her. But she's now entering the swamp.
Ryan will give her the inside dope.
How about “read the bible” Preachin’. Gloating as though it were us, rather than bowing before the Lord in awestruck wonder, is why our battles are tougher than they need to be. When glory is stolen from the Lord, He always acts to correct it; He is not mocked.
Hey Ossoff... toss off!
Nobody liked you in the first place. You stumbled into $30 million of leftist cash because those unhinged fools have a seething hatred for the leader of the free world and would pay anything to harm him. And it was money well spent because they got nothing to show for it except a pajama-boy carpetbagger sitting miserably in the loser’s column.
Congrats to Handel for her significant victory.
Double MAGA with a cup of covfefe
[...knashing of teeth.”
Democrats should be lauded, this is their first real economic contribution in a decade! $26 million spent, and they lost!
WINNING BIGLY!
MAGAnificent! I laughed my Ossoff!
