Dem Jon Ossoff spends more than twice what ALL Republicans spent on GA special election, still loses

Yup. Typically, all a republican has to do to win 70% of the vote there is call MLK a terrorist and say we should invade Iran. Trump's failures are hitting them hard.

One major Democrat candidate (Jon Ossoff) went up against eleven Republicans for a Congressional seat in Georgia, vacated when President Trump picked the former congressman for his cabinet.

The Democrat was backed almost entirely by Hollywood millionaires, who sent him $millions, ran ads for him, etc.

Despite their lopsided spending advantage, Dems were hoping that the election would be a "referendum on the Donald Trump election"

And it was. Despite spending more than twice what all the Republicans spent combined, the Democrat candidate still lost.

He was hoping to get more than 50% of the vote, while Republicans split the Republican vote among 11 candidates. But he failed. Now there will be a runoff election in June, between the Democrat Ossoff and the top Republican finisher, which the Republican candidate Handel will win easily.

The Democrats were right about one thing: The election was a referendum on Donald Trump's election. Democrats can't win even when they are backed by big-money interests from outside the state.

Democrats begin to wonder: When do we win?

Democrats begin to wonder: When do we win?

For all the roiling anger and energy at the grass roots, the party still fell short in Georgia and Kansas. And Democratic prospects in upcoming elections aren't promising.

As it became clear late Tuesday evening that Jon Ossoff would fall just short of the 50-percent mark in the first round of voting in a suburban Atlanta special election, Democrats back in Washington started leafing through their calendars and asking: When does the winning start?
Spent double the money, and got well more than double the votes of the leading GOP candidate. Not a bad investment.
Rather impressive when you consider he was in newtie's district, which the republicans have held since 1979.


This election is a bellwether for 2018. Ossoff could still win in the June run off, too. Jason Chaffetz of Utah says he's not running next year. I bet he's not the first shoe to drop as other Republican congressmen are seeing how Trump is causing them pure fucking hell at the townhall meetings. My sister lives in Houston, Ted Cruz's district and he won't even HOLD a townhall meeting. He's the biggest chicken ever. Republicans are going to get a bloodbath next year.
yep, go with that. I'm laughing, but you go with that.
 
The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee hit the panic button Monday in a fundraising email warning activists that the early-voting tallies are making them “nervous” about their chances of winning the special election Tuesday in Georgia’s 6th Congressional District.

“Breaking: Georgia Democrats’ early vote lead PLUNGES,” the email read. “We’re nervous. Republicans just had their best day yet — and turned out more voters in Georgia than Democrats did on Friday.”

“It’s a crushing blow to our efforts to hand Trump a MASSIVE Loss,” the email said.
 
Fun fact: you supporting evil for political gain makes you evil. So I don't care if calling out the evils of a bunch of shameless clodhoppers isn't working for me. I'm still going to do it.

Reality fact you're a loon. Just yesterday you were posting that you want progressives and antifa to arm themselves and crash Trump supporting rallies and use violence and possible murder to shut down anyone and everyone that doesn't share your ideologue.

You can hide behind all your "lol"s but everyone can clearly see that you're a warped frustrated angry hateful loser.
 
A democrat way ahead of all Republican candidates in THAT district?

The Republicans now see the gathering typhoon off in the distance. It is real.
You must be gazing into the toilet bowl. The fact is that hate doesn't sell and it's the only thing dems have left in their arsenal. Thank you Donald Trump.

I see nothing writing with meeting evil with violence. The Nazi's did not fall to kind words and civil outreach, and the alt-right may not either.

See how you spin the narative with fake news? The GOP candidate split votes with 11 candidates, so double is actually bad it should have been more then triple for you
to comment. =busted!
The leading Republican vote getter won 18.2% of the vote. Are the Republicans so divided as to not actively support a candidate until the last weeks of the campaign? How well does the GOP party structure work?
