Georgia 6th Congressional District (GA06) Special Election- Primary

Decision Desk HQ ^ | April 18, 2017

[SMGFan]

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.

Thank you for that link about Karen Handel, Art! At a quick glance, she looks pretty conservative.

No conspiracy necessary, only the desire to conceal mistakes by lying.

The story given is not very credible, in my opinion.

Jon Ossoff's name intrigued me, so I looked it up on Wiki...."Ossoff is grandson of immigrant Russian Jewish and Lithuanian Jewish grandparents, and was raised Jewish."

He's another red diaper baby, like Fox News Chris Wallace, toothy Julie Roginsky and Jessica Tarlov, the possesser of the worst speaking voice in all of television....

....and American marxists....ALL of them.

It’s 13% black and 13% hispanic now. These parts of the northern area are not very conservative. Those people have shrunken to Forsyth county further north.

Fascinating about tonight is that, two weeks ago in the CA-34 special election “jungle primary” in Los Angeles (the former Xavier Becerra seat), a total of 23 candidates split just 28,534 votes.

Tonight, we have over 180,000 votes already counted, with still 30+ precincts left to complete.

If the Dems give him a prime-time speaking role at the 2020 convention, better watch out. (Obama wowed the crowd in 2004 and we know the outcome four years later.)

Yup. The very minute I heard Obama speak at that 2004 convention, I knew he had a strong chance of becoming president someday. It happened MUCH sooner than I expected though.

Trump just called the race on his twitter account.

Brand-new tweet from President Trump!

Yep I’m astounded at the number of self-hating Jews in media and politics

Wow. I have to admit, I didn't even know about that race.

...Jessica Tarlov, the possesser of the worst speaking voice in all of television....

Isn't that the truth. Like fingernails on a chalkboard. Drives me insane. Sends me looking for the remote.

[nutmeg]

Yup! :-)

Ossoff is a multimillionaire who literally spent $8,000,000 on this race. That is the only reason he was competitive vs. all the previous broke-ass Democratic candidates in this district. Handel will win comfortably in 2018 with the power of incumbency, plus it will be a national election, so the national Democratic Party won't be throwing all their weight on one race (they'll likely ignore GA-6 entirely in 2018).

Thanks for posting... great find.

You are SO right about Tarlov! Yikes. Absolute worst voice. Like a Marxist valley girl.

Can't stand Wallace's voice (and political ideology) either, and Roginsky is a snarky little commie a-hole. Ship 'em all to CNN and/or MSLSD.

Isn’t the runoff election next month?
