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.
Early returns from KY EST zone are very helpful for national elections. This year they showed me that trump would win.
For any mean people like me here’s a vid of the Ossuff watch Party earlier...

Now, they’re all crying.
That is his LATEST ad, run months after his early ones in March and the first weeks of April, before he was charged with deliberately NOT admitting he is a liberal extremist democrat.
It is run in response to, the few repubbie ads accusing him (correctly!) of deception and misdirection.
Georgia wasn’t called for Trump until nearly midnight, which I found very disconcerting. Georgia should be a very solid red state. Regardless of results tonight (I’m optimistic for the runoff), work needs to be done there.
Looks like it also brought Republicans to the polls.
....all is becoming right with the world.....the snowflakes are melting. ...it’s springtime in Georgia....LOL.
Ole Hispania in Cobb county.
Now Ossoff is down to 50.88% - it's looking very good for the runoff now.
It’s the same damn visitor that brought pestilence in late July 1864....hattip Scarlett
Do I have to spell it our?
Starts with a Y
Plus rich blacks moving up
And oddly enough the most Jewish district....in Dixie...besides south Florida.....I think over 15 percent
It’s not just rich white southerner traditional folk
I think both Handel and Ossoff are tribe though technically Ossoff is kinda half Jewish despite daddy got him mitzvahed
pfffff please GA was over before Midnight, it wasn’t called because of the media trying to make it a race.
Just like it took some stations to call FLA until midnight. A joke.

Next dump is in. The rat is down to 50.8%.
Republicans vote on Election Day. Rats bank their votes early.
The good news is that if this freefall continues, whomever ends up second (Handle, probably) will win the runoff.
85 precincts of 210 now in: Ossoff down to 50.76% district wide.
Oh ery true. But that was the Alabama state line you had crossed. It’s only a few miles, once you’re past the west 285 loop around Atlanta. (Which may take two or more hours to cross with today’s traffic and bridge fires ).
Hollywood ultra leftist Dems poured tons of money into this
race.
Moral
Republicans should defund Hollywood left by boycotting their movies, hit them in the f-ing wallet.
Candidate Percent Votes
Jon Ossoff (Democratic) 50.8% 60,319
Karen Handel (Republican) 18.1% 21,543

It really is like watching a deflating balloon. Slowly but surely, he's going to come up short, and then lose in June. Millions of Dem dollars for another moral 'victory'.
