WAAA-HOOOOO!

Our long Spring North Atlanta nightmare is over! No more ads, no more robocalls, no more mailings, and no post turtle pajama boi representing us in Congress!

Matt Towery nails it, we haven’t seen the last of this kid. Which is frightening, as he has nothing for a resume.

Congrats, Karen.

They lose again.

Dems poured a ton of money into this race. It was the most expensive House race in history. YUGE loss for them!
