Democrats Are Right to Worry About the Georgia Runoffs: But Republicans Cannot Take This election For Granted
PJ Media ^ | 12/30/2020 | Tyler O' Neill

The Georgia Senate runoffs are one week away, and Democrats are reportedly worried about their chances. Jon Ossoff and Rev. Raphael Warnock are running against Republican Sens. David Perdue and Kelly Loeffler. While Joe Biden won a narrow (and contested) victory in the presidential race in November, Democrats are right to worry about the Senate runoffs, although Republicans cannot take anything for granted.

Ossoff and Warnock sounded the alarm about their ability to keep pace with GOP spending in the race, calling for a “significant increase” in donations to keep them afloat for the next week.

“To win this election in 8 days, we need to continue our historic efforts to turn out every single voter — but we won’t be able to do that if our fundraising revenue continues to fall,” Warnock campaign manager Jerid Kurtz and Ossoff campaign manager Ellen Foster wrote in a memo obtained by NBC News.

While Ossoff and Warnock both raised more than $100 million over the past two months, outraising Perdue and Loeffler, Republican outside groups are outspending Democratic groups.

Conservative groups have mobilized to defend the Republican Senate majority. Heritage Action, the political action arm of the Heritage Foundation, had knocked on more than 100,000 doors and contacted more than 750,000 voters in the Atlanta area by mid-December. Women Speak Out PAC, the action partner of the pro-life group Susan B. Anthony List, also plans to contact 750,000 voters at their doors. Catholic Vote also aims to mobilize 215,000 mass-attending Catholics in Georgia.

Club for Growth invested $10 million in the Georgia runoffs, while Heritage Action spent at least $1 million, WSO PAC spent $4 million, including funds for door-to-door canvassing, and Catholic Vote spent more than $250,000.

An anonymous source described Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) as “pessimistic”

I take it for granted that the Dems will cheat and win in a landslide.

It’s out in the open, and no one will stop them.

What are Dems worried about?
They have Dominion machines and Stacey’s cheat-by-mail-in ballots and Raffensburger’s 24/7 unmonitored drop-boxes (sanctioned by Stacey’s sister judge).

Well, I don’t think conservatives took the 11/3/2020 one for granted but in hindsight it’s obvious that the democommies knew the jig was up and they didn’t need to expend much effort campaigning.(basement dwellers united!) They knew they needed votes and POOF! All of a sudden, there they were. I still like Mrs rktman’s idea. One county, one electoral vote.

I don’t know why Dems are worried.

The crazy a$$ Jordan Fuchs had Raffenpuker by the short hair and is really running the Ga. SOS office.

She is working hand in glove with Stacy Abrams to steal another election.

The fix is already in and as we have seen with all the other fraud, there isn’t a darn thing anybody can do to stop it.

Stacey Abrams and her fat sister judge have the fraud cooking on high in Georgia and .... little “Mary Jane” Kemp just laughs and laughs.

Look up Jordan Fuchs and you will see why what happened in Georgia was allowed to happen.

Yeah, sorry to say, but its over before it ever got started. Dems will cheat again...even worse this time around because I'm sure tons of non-resident votes will be counted for Assoff and Jeremiah Wright Jr anyway.

I don't see anything happening on the Republican side to make me believe anything different.

Gird your loins...there are dark times ahead.

If they can limit the fraud, the GOPers will both win.

Either the memo and Schumer’s alleged concern were leaked for fundraiser purposes. Or its a way of covering up the voter fraud in the Presidential election by making these races look or allowing them to be legitimate.

Can’t do or won’t do?

How is that going to happen?
Same people running the same machines, using the same procedures.

The GA Senate races won’t mean a hill of beans after Micro Rubio and Flimsey Grahamnesty give the Democrats a permanent majority with amnesty for illegal aliens.

The dems might not even have to cheat. Latest Trafalger poll has both dems winning. Until now they had reps winning.

Much ado about nothing.

The government class will have near-unanimous control of all levels of government in the U.S. regardless of who wins these beauty contests.

If there’s one thing we’ve learned, or should have, these past four years, it doesn’t matter which nominal side of government class controls houses of Congress...we slog in only one direction regardless...more oligarchy, less freedom; more ultra rich and peasants, less middle class; more government, less small business.

DEMONcRATS ae worried about the Georgia Elections?

When did that happen?

Sounds like some reverse Psychology to me.

I guess they ae worried about how much Voter Fraud will be enough. They already stole a Presidential Election and nobody is hanging from Lampposts. They have nothing to worry about.

Republicans are not taking the election for granted

Recently, I receive 5 to 7 emails and 6 or 8 texts from all sorts of non georgia republicans asking for money in this “tight” race in which they are being outspent by a factor of at least three.

A broad, very broad, group of heavy republican hitters is working feaverishly to raise money and get out the vote
