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

[ptbw forever]

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.

Ted Cruz is a Senator, dumbass.

Houston has a Democrat representative.

cruz was completely emasculated by trump. Although, I doubt he really had any balls to begin with. It was disgraceful how trump insulted his wife and after trump wins, cruz is the first one on his knees licking his boots. Pathetic.

Trump did not insult Cruz's wife, idiot.

That was a random Twitter follower.

Trump retweeted it from his personal account. And that wasn't even the most disgusting thing he did to Cruz's family.

The delusional White haters on CNN praised the democrat as being the next Obama!

They also think that he is a 'bellweather' for the mid-term elections.........

OMG!!!

He actually retweeted a pro-Trump post? How dare he do such a thing....

 

[Zander]

Ossoff beat every single one of his opponents by upwards of 30 points.

It takes a staggering amount of self-delusion to conclude that he "lost".

He didn't lose and he didn't win.

If he wins the runoff you'll have a point. Until then.....

No, actually I have a point right now.

Or did you not read the title of this thread?

whatever gets you through the night doc.

This is what he retweeted to attack Ted Cruz's wife. Just days later he accused Cruz of having ties to JFK's assassination.

Oh and speaking of all the polls being liberal biased, Osoff outperformed the poll average by 5 points.

You can't detect sarcasm very well, can you?

Everyone(including Trump and the maker of the original tweet) knows that Heidi Cruz is an above average looking woman, that is why Heidi is shown in an unflattering photo next to a normal photo of Melania.

Trump accused Cruz's father of being involved in JFK's murder, but you want me to believe he did not mean to call his wife ugly? Go peddle your bullshit elsewhere, little idiot.
