Republican Karen Handel staved off a furious challenge from Democrat Jon Ossoff on Tuesday in a race to represent a suburban Atlanta seat in Congress, as the GOP and President Donald Trump avoided an embarrassing defeat in the most expensive U.S. House contest in history.

A former Georgia secretary of state, Handel emphasized her experience and roots in Georgia’s 6th Congressional District to defeat Ossoff and keep a seat that’s long been held by Republicans in GOP hands. She becomes Georgia’s first female Republican member of the U.S. House.....

It's so funny. None of these liberal "journalists" hang out with or know anyone who voted for Trump.

They live in this little liberal self-denial bubble and get reality thrown in their faces when they see how real, patriotic Americans support Trump's agenda.

It's a grand sight to behold!

Stunning photo Procon...absolutely captures the moment, so similar to when Hillary lost...and still they don’t get that people don’t want what they’re serving up....

Their leftist liberal/progressives ‘preferred’ blindness reminds me of John 9:41.....

...Jesus in response to a debate by what authority he healed a blind man responded, paraphrasing,.... “You are not guilty because you are blind, you are guilty because you claim you can see.” .....

Agreed FRiend. God has given them over to their own foolishness as described in Romans 1 and elsewhere.

The times we live in and observe everyday makes my faith in Christ Jesus even more strong.

What constitutes a “furious challenge?” Osoff lost by five percentage points.

Meanwhile, the paper says “President Donald Trump avoided an embarrassing defeat.” The only way to “avoid an embarrassing defeat” is not to compete. The only person who suffered an “embarrassing defeat” in this race was the Democratic LOSER, Jon Osoff.

Meanwhile, the VICTORIOUS Republican candidate who was actually on the ballot, Karen Handel, WON by five percentage points. I’m sure President Trump was among the first to congratulate her.
