1. He had no identifying qualities as a male or female human being. (Note to journalists and university SJWs, there is no other sex. Live with it, dorks.)
2. He didn’t live in the district.
3. Dumber than a rock, thereby qualifying him as a son of Pelosi.
4. And, of course, he was a liberal. (Which pretty much is an unavoidable conclusion given points 1-3.)

Why Ossoff Lost Was it because his opponant recieved more votes?

I heard Hillary called a carpetbagger before so I suppose they think of demonicrats the same way.

One of them waved a bottle of vodka in the air.
Vodka? Sounds like ... Russians!

Because Georgia is next to Russia?

Ossoff lost because as the Democrats and the Democrat media said this was a referendum on Donald Trump and since Trump won the district by 2% and now Handel won it by 7% then obviously Trump has more support now than ever before!
THE PEOPLE HAVE SPOKEN!!!

It was hard to write a boring article about this really interesting race—but the author managed to do it!

He didn’t live in the district and didn’t have to put up with the constant television commercials, phone calls, and pounding on the door that $31 million buys.
His polls started crashing about a week out. Just when the hype reached a fever pitch.
Stop harassing voters and you might do better.
To: 2ndDivisionVet
Because he was a wuss. A typical millennial beta, and it showed.

Ossoff lost because people over thirty and people who had jobs couldn't identify with him.
It's a shame. He really worked his Ossoff.

“Despite the opposition Trump has galvanized”
Great headline by The Atlantic. On par with “Global Warming threatens every coastal state” and “Russian Influence Cost Hillary the Election”.
More fantasies from fantasyland.

“The Democrats have been much more energized.” Energized is not the same as hysterical.
Energized appeals, hysterical just makes you feel vaguely repulsed.

Ossoff hoped to be, as much as possible, a blank slate, a nice young man in whom disgruntled voters of all stripes could see the alternative they wanted. Classic sleazy Democrat Party fraudulence. Worked for Obama.
But now there's a new sheriff in town named The Donald. HE is the "backlash," and the truly "disgruntled voters" are still standing behind him.

. . . more than $50 million, or nearly $100 for every potential voter . . .Neglecting the point that most of the Democratic money came in from out of state and was WAY out of proportion to what the Republican received.
