I’m in Georgia and I agree with that assessment. Georgia still leans Red even-though that is changing. But what you stated certainly moved the bar this year.

Dems win both seats! Thank you Donald, you're the gift that keeps on giving. The best part is Moscow Mitch is demoted to minority leader.

As a Libertarian that last thing I wanted was Biden/Harris having free reign over the country with the house and senate. I was ok with a muted Biden for 4 years.


Thank a lot Trump for once again snatching defeat from an almost certain victory. Thanks all the nutjob Trump voters who pushed all this Kraken nonsense and pedophile networks ruling the world and deep state and all the crazy talk. You got what you deserved but it effects grounded in reality people like me. The majority of Americans who don't care for Trump but do not want Biden's agenda to go ahead unstopped.


A sad day in America.

The republicans did this to themselves. Getting in bed with Trump and the Q world did them in. Decisions have consequences. The republican party needs to step back and realize what they've done. This is no ones fault but their own.

We don’t have to imagine. Trump’s a racist and everyone knows it.

People really need to understand just how hard Stacey Abrams worked and how she turned a red state to blue. She went completely grass roots and managed to find all the people who normally do not vote, got them registered and convinced them to vote blue. Doesn't matter what your politics are. You have to give it to her. She worked her butt off.
