That’s beyond the automatic recount limit of 0.5%.

It’s done.

Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, unless he convinces Joe Manchin to switch.

Ossoff's lead only continues to grow as the last remaining ballots are counted. It now exceeds some 35,600 votes. The margin percentage of 0.8% puts it out of recount range.

Yes, Trump did a great job of discouraging people from voting. But like an idiot he discouraged his own party. What a nit-wit.

If you haven't noticed... the "nit-wit" doesn't have a party, just a rabid following!

Manchin already said that he's not switching parties and that he's happy as a Democrat, even if he is as conservative as he can get without crossing into Republican territory.

Trump handed the Senate to the Democrats. It was bad enough that AZ lost both seats to Democrats, but Trump going out and saying the election is a fraud and then act surprised when Republicans lose. Historically, turnout for Republicans in GA is better than Democrats. That was blunted due to Trump's nonsense.

It also doesn't help when McConnell repeatedly blocked the $2,000 checks from coming to a vote, which had support from both Trump and the House.
