Lol....didn't find my humor to your liking, eh?

Oh well, I'm sure you took the time to review my posting history..before you came to your conclusion.

It was a cheap shot...too easy. But sometimes, the low hanging fruit tastes good also.

That looks like the type of commercial someone from the POC subforum would make.

From the Hill:

Flash flood warnings complicate turnout

4:25 p.m. (EST)

The National Weather Service has issued a flood warning that will impact some of the largely Democratic portions of the Georgia congressional district.

That flood warning largely cuts across the southern part of the district in DeKalb County, a Democratic stronghold that's key to Ossoff's path to victory. It also includes parts of Fulton and Cobb Counties, which are more Republican, but appears to be affect the Democratic areas most heavily.

The warning, issued at 1:11 p.m., will last through 7:15 p.m., just after the vast majority of polls close.

It's unclear how this will effect the turnout, but it can't be a welcome development for the Ossoff camp.

I heard there was record spending, what is the breakdown by party?

I know the dems have been throwing a ton of money around looking for a win lately and even Hillary outspent Trump by about 2-1.

They're really looking for something to point to, so I heard 50mil spent and am wondering if it's 50/50 or 80/20?

Secondly, I have to shake my head at the people crowing about polls and how their candidate is going to win. Didn't you learn anything from the Presidential election? All you're accomplishing with that is to possibly lower your own candidates turnout because "you got it in the bag". This applies to anyone regardless of party or election year.

pretty sure the polls are very close, the dems have not won there since 1970s is my understanding so if they win it is very strong indeed.

remember when picking for cabinets both sides always try to pick from safe seats so as not to lose any....
