"......"All eyes will be on Georgia for the next two months," Emory University political science professor Andra Gillespie said. "There will be record spending, unprecedented campaigning and tons of mudslinging in these races — more than what we're used to seeing."

Currently, Republicans hold a 53-47 majority in the U.S. Senate. With several races undecided, Democrats have gained one new seat in the Senate but would need two more for a 50-50 split. Then, if Joe Biden wins the White House, Kamala Harris as vice president would cast tiebreaking votes in the chamber......"

This is the next crisis. If the GOP loses this election marks the end of USA we know. The filibuster is gone and it's mob rule. Don't be surprised if there are two more states and a packed SCOTUS. God knows what else.

It would sure help if enough election fraud is found in MI to give John James a chance. I doubt it was just Trump's race that was illegally altered.

That would take much pressure of the GA races.

Exactly. If they are able to pull this massive fraud off, those two races will be a piece of cake. It’s now or never. Gametime.

I did a little calculating....One should go over 50% before they finish counting.

And where does that 50% come in for a Federal election. Is it legal?

It’s a sad day when you can’t depend on Georgia anymore. Can’t afford to lose many more states... Diversity strikes again...

Does anyone have any figures on Republican turnout this election?? We knew (or should have known) that Democrats would swamp us with mail-in ballots. Republicans probably needed 90% turnout to even have a chance. I also wonder how independents broke.

Covid was a plan to help this D’s this year, no question. Fraud is so much easier with mail-in ballots.

Georgia has two runoff election dates after the general election

Looks like Jan 5, 2021.

It is conceptually impossible that Georgia would vote D senators in any honest election.

People are moving to Georgia just to vote. They have a very easy residency requirement. Andrew yang is moving there he mentioned this today. It’s so dumb to have a republican government in Georgia but let this crap happen. If a bunch of liberals rent our homes for two months and register by December 7th....weird coincidence. Then we are going to lose big. How come the law isn’t only those who voted in the election get to vote?????? The Republican Party is stupid!

The Democrat magic vote machine can fix that. Then we won’t have to hear any more Republicans who want to shrug off Trump keep mumbling about how they still feel vindicated by the election results. “We have the Senate! We have a minority in the House, but it’s SMALLER!”

Trump won’t be on the ballot in January - Schumer As proxy will be. Demographics don’t work for Schumer

If it weren’t for too many innocent people on our side getting hurt,I would actually wish for complete control of government by the rats so everything crashes and burns.

This is why the GOP has to ultimately support Trump and the upcoming voting fraud lawsuits, Mitch’s Senate Leadership is inexorably linked to the success ofTrump’s upcoming litigation.
