Warnock and Ossoff won historic Senate seats because of rapidly shifting demographics in key Georgia counties and clear promises of $2,000 stimulus checks

Fulton County, anchored by Atlanta, as well as surrounding Cobb, DeKalb, Gwinnett, Clayton, Henry, and Forsyth counties, provided the nexus of Democratic strength in the runoffs.

In Fulton County, Democrats romped during this election cycle — Biden beat Trump countywide 73% to 26%, banking a nearly 243,000-vote margin on his way to winning the state by about 12,000 votes.

DeKalb and Clayton, with their large middle-class Black populations, have become growing Democratic bulwarks in statewide elections and gave both Ossoff and Warnock well over 80% of the vote in the runoffs.

However, Cobb, Gwinnett, and Henry counties, longtime Republican strongholds, and Forsyth County, which is still conservative, have undergone some of the most dramatic electoral changes in the entire state.

I have direct contacts with Indians via my church. They are not here to assimilate.

Asians have higher incomes than most and they vote heavy democrat.

I agree the gop needs to do a better job in reaching out to the various communities.

Well it doesn’t frigging help when Mitch McConnell insults the whole dang country with his stupid “Socialism for the rich” line.

You want “Socialism for the rich?” Try student loans among other things. That crap needs to be forgiven ASAP for everybody, and the program halted. Tuition rates will go back down in a hurry to a livable amount. And Liberal White professors (the non-adjuncts) will have to make it on less.

The only thing that shifted was the dominion machine shifting votes. I saw it took a day after they again stopped voting to put Purdue over the top! I will say that neither Loeffler or Purdue were worth a searious crap to vote for!

We deserved to lose the Senate thanks to McConnell. Now Puerto Rico and DC will become 51st and 52nd states.

The President wanted $2000 for the people but McConnell gave him the finger and issued a paltry $600.

Lying Joe said directly that if Warnock and Ossoff are elected "the $2000 checks go out the door."

The Dems used McConnell's failure and hatred of Trump to win both the Senate and the fraud election.

This image was simply too tasty--tons of Dems and some greedy Republicans took the baited hook.

The takers have figured out they can outvote the makers. It’s a done deal folks.

That’s BS! They won because the MAGA people said they weren’t coming out to vote unless they fixed the Trump election.

They didn’t fix it, and the Trumpers stayed home.

Asians, and other minorities vote overwhelmingly for the Democrats.

You're joking, right? We have a bunch of Asians in my county, they are ALL hard core conservatives. They came here escaping the CCP, and they are fit to be tied that Biden won. They are telling everyone that will listen that what is happening now is the way it started in China.

Wrong. Purdue outperformed Trump in November.


POTUS GOTV for Perdue. Did Perdue GOTV for POTUS? Nope. He never mentioned Trump in his ads in the general. Interestingly, it was 180 degrees the opposite in the runoff. Perdue’s ads were 100% Trump.

They didn’t win anything.

Anyone trying to study the votes in the 2020 cycle, cannot take the votes in Mi, WI, GA, PA, AZ, NV as real actual votes. It’s just a pile of fake crap that crooked politicians certified...

You lose the identity as a sane adult if you can’t understand that.

Maybe some of the county down ballot stuff was legit, but President, and Senate races were absolutely fake...

There is no poli-sci analysis of those races that can be used for meaningful study...

It can’t be done.

Stop all of this spin nonsense.

So, rigged Dominion voting machines and mail in ballot shenanigans had nothing to do with it?
