eagerly awaiting results, input, comments, predictions.... and ultimately #WINNING!!
As President Trump pointed out the other day, his popularity is 50 percent nationwide and it should be higher than that in Georgia’s 6th District.
Embracing the president was the key to embracing victory in this race and to the extent Karen Handel wins or loses will be testimony to her embracing of the POTUS.
I understand she kept him at arms length until the end and she did that at her own peril.
Virginia sadly elects her share of losers, too.
“I dont think he still believes stationing troops on Guam could tip the Island over.
You have no idea how much Hank Johnson is hated here “Where America’s Day Begins” (The territorial motto)
If you revel in the misery of liberals, watch the Young Turks meltdown on election night as, among other things, the NYT election counter edges more and more to the right.
I’m in 6th district:
It’s:
1/3 Conservative
1/3 Establishment Republican
1/3 Democrat
Happens all the time in Rep primary, 1/3 behind establishment, conservatives split to about 4 others so the establishment rhino wins
I voted Handel today with hopes to vote her out in a year & half.
Election results to cause run off:
Democrat
Jon Ossoff (D) 48.10% 92,390
Ragin Edwards (D) 0.26% 502
Establishment Republican 37,000 votes

And Handel is a female mysoginist...
Ossoff is a weasel and creep.
Twitter guy (@mrbeercrusher) who was very accurate in predicting states based on his “sources” is projecting Handel with 52%. That’s a winner if he’s right.
Tomorrow headline: Did Climate Change Cost Dems House Seat?
A major GOPe district.
Trump won by only 1%
Well if it is GOPe district, would that not be positive considering the fact that the candidate is GOPe?
In spite of what you heard, Tom Price won his reelection with 61.6% of the vote only seven months ago.
I live in gwinnett co and it’s POURED today... flood warnings out.. that radar looks like it’s raining in the southern part of that district. Johns Creek area has not rained much as of 5 pm.. that’s northern fulton co
No such picture of shoveOff - he/zee can't vote!!
follow the money. CNN FNC MSNBC desperately need this to justify political advertising costs.
If this fails then the money will not pay for advertising.
It’s good news as long as the registered GOP voters don’t vote D. Never Trumpers are a pain in the arse.
I just want to know something? Has she Loudly defended President Trump from this modern McCarthyism of the Democrats-Media- and sadly most Republicans? If not, screw her
The 6th district has been voting for Handel for years. She won the 6th District when she ran for Sec. of State, Governor and the Senate. As soon as she declared herself a candidate for the 6th district congressional seat she had the lead.
I hate the NYT, but I agree. Their website has the best election result coverage that I have ever seen on the web.
Unfortunately, the progressive wing of the GOP has shown they prefer Democrats to patriot Conservatives.
Trump, Pence and Isaacson have all supported Handel.. They’ve either come here or added radio messages.
