GA Special Election: Complete, Utter, and total failure of Liberalism

[tycho1572]

I feel bad for anyone dumb enough to step in front of the Trump train.

How much money did democrats throw away on this nonsense?

I hope a lot more than is being reported. Those millions are now prevented from being used in other races against Americans.

"His huge fundraising hauls – he raised at least $23 million – kept his message on metro Atlanta’s airwaves and allowed him to target irregular voters and others who rarely cast ballots for Democrats. And a legion of more than 12,000 Ossoff volunteers inundated the district with appeals to vote. But in the end, the money and Democratic energy wasn’t enough to overcome the district’s Republican underpinning."

That's not looking good for Republicans in 2018.

Keep telling yourselves that. The Dems blew tens of millions on this race and couldn't even win, all with Trump's approval rating at "all time lows" and on the verge of impeachment according to the MSM and their mindless followers.

It's coming--what you're looking at is going from R + 28 down to R + 2 within a year, or since November 2016. This means that Republicans were voting heavily for the Democrat contender. Another 1 year 4 months from now or November 2018 it's going to be R---(10) meaning Democrats win.

We're talking about Georgia a deep red state--where it's always anticipated that the Republican will win.

I am certain Senate & House Republicans are looking at this right now--because most of them don't come from deep red states, and have very much to be concerned about tonight.

Remind us when a Republican was mayor of Atlanta?



.

It doesn't matter--going from R + 23 down to R + 2 in the span of 8 months is astounding. The Republican trend is spiraling down in a very red state, meaning that Republicans were voting for the Democrat in this race.

No, it just means a Dems spent a ba-jillion dollars on one small election and were very energized about it, while most regular people probably weren't even paying attention. The next regular election will back strongly for Republicans.

It means our anything for ratings media wasted our time. ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

As I pointed out already, twice, the district is R+8. It has never been R+23

 

[tycho1572]

Will democrats ever learn they can't buy an election?

 

[Flash]

It's an R+8 district.

R+23 in the last congressional election. As I said, and as your link showed.

The moral? Like Frank said, the guy was too Republican. He decided not to go after Trump, and play republican-lite instead. That's not a winning strategy. Democrat win by acting like Democrats.

The district is R+8. As I stated earlier in this thread, special elections tend to vary wildly from general election results. A good example is the December 2010 runoff election for the New Orleans Congressional seat where Republican Joseph Cao squeaked out a win over incumbent William Jefferson, which I believe was the only time a Republican has ever won this district. Two years later in the 2012 general Cao got creamed 65% to 33% and the seat flipped back to the Dems.

It is actually a +7 Republican district and the Republican is winning by 5%. The $50 million of outside money only bought the filthy ass Democrats 2%.

My son voted against Pajama Boy so you can thank him for helping to beat that lying asshole Libtard.

Handel is thanking Trump.

 

[Flash]

 

[Flash]

Although he tried to lie about it later in the campaign Pajama Boy ran on a platform to raise taxes and kiss the ass of the Muslims, just like Crooked Hillary. Then the Democrats wonder why they don't win any more.

Really

"Handel led Ossoff by 4.8 percentage points with more than three-fourths of the 6th District's precincts having reported their results at 10 p.m. ET, in the most expensive House race in US history.

It was a much closer margin than the 20-plus point wins typically posted by former Rep. Tom Price -- whose departure to become Trump's health and human services secretary created the vacancy."

Here's another one South Carolina who was all in for Trump.

"The race is to replace Mick Mulvaney, who stepped down to enter the administration of President Donald Trump as the Director of the Office of Management and Budget. Parnell is a bit of a long-shot to win Mulvaney’s old seat. According to ESPN’s FiveThirtyEight Tuesday, South Carolina’s fifth district is 19 percentage points more Republican than the rest of the country. Trump won handily here. Mulvaney, who is a founding member of the far-right Freedom Caucasus of the Republican party, won by landslides in each of his elections. Mulvaney beat his last Democratic opponent by 20 points, The Herald reported Tuesday."

Result:
Ralph Norman R 52.6%
Archie Parnell D 47.9% a difference of 4.7 points (Parnell wasn't even supposed to get close to Norman.)

What these races in South Carolina & Georgia did was give Democrats hope in the deep south--and they'll be back for 2018. It looks to me that Republicans in the South are getting very tired of Trump.

Great to see all the feminists out in full force tonight celebrating another woman joining Congress. #ShePersisted

Trump only won that district by 1%.

Now Handel is up by 6% with 99% of the vote in.

That doesn't bode well for the Democrats, does it?

 

[Flash]

The polls had it tied and the Republican won by 6%.

That just shows you that if you only poll Moon Bats then you will only get Moon Bat results.

 

[tycho1572]

This is another win for our president.

Pfizer Inc. stock, the company that makes Preparation H was up yesterday apparently in anticipation of another democrat carpetbagger heavily financed from outside sources losing. I do wish they would bring down the price of Viagra. Really hesitant to buy generics from INDIA!

 

[RetiredGySgt]

So, a R+23 district went to R +2

Keep whistling past that graveyard.

Ohh look the latest defense by liberals.... BUT BUT we almost won.......

Actually they didn't almost win.

 

[bodecea]

Ossoff has 9 times as many donors from CA than in this district

Let's see the evidence.

 

[bodecea]

Congratulations to the GOP for barely winning a district that has been solidly GOP since Jimmy Carter.

Sorry dumb ass But Trump only won the district by 1.5 percent. The incumbent left and all new faces appeared. You spent 25 to 27 million dollars and LOST. And as usual you are claiming a win is really a victory some how.

Really

Yes, tard, really. It's R+8. You might want to actually read up on how the Cook PVI ratings work and you'll look less ignorant in the future. And so what if Price won his last election by 20 points? Incumbents typically do win by fairly decisive margins barring a scandal or a wave for the opposite party. When a seat is open the race is generally much closer.
