Fulton just had a big vote dump, Ossoff now at 48.6%, will likely be around 48% when completed. Runoff with Handel in June which at this point has to be considered a toss up.
The GOP will bury this guy now that all the votes are consolidated into one candidate. This should not even be national news.
You do realize there is going to be a runoff? The Democrats wanted a runoff instead of a win?
Do you think Ossoff will actually live in the district by then?
Of course a win would have been nice....but just five months after the federal govt. when Republicans won.....a Republican stronghold in Georgia is at risk -- too close for comfort, of being lost to a Democrat.
That's Newt Gingrich's old seat -- too close for comfort.
Just think of all the other districts were there isn't a stronghold that went Republican last vote....hmmmmmmm they are deeply at risk.
So no it isn't a big win -- but it's making Republicans nervous. When was the last time a rookie President dealing with things like Syria, Iran, etc.....took the time to get involved and campaign against a candidate.....
Of course if the Democrat loses, it is all because Trump is so great right?

I just thing its hysterical Democrats think a runoff is better than a win.
Ossoff $8,000,000 as the democrat's darling candidate vs Handel $183,000 against a cadre of other republican candidates and the democrats STILL couldn't buy the seat! All eyes are on Ossoff, all votes are on Handel.
It's a toss up in the view of the propaganda media and people like you who said Ossoff would win tonight. For rational observers, it's a Republican win.
I never said Ossoff would win, in fact I made a prediction of 45-48% in another thread...
I guess the next question is about the runoff. Will Rs all rally around Handel? And will Ds all show up to vote again?
Its actually a pretty stunning race in that Price won by 23 and a D was within 2 points of hitting 50. That's better than the two main party candidates did on the whole last fall.
