Leaving on that midnight train for Georgia Runoff

Only took him four years lol.

Three, to be fair. Article is from last year. He was Trump’s AA in '16. This from PBS NewsHour is lol:

When pressed about whether he thought Cheadle was wrong to say Trump was pursuing a “pro-white” agenda, Trump said he didn’t know who Cheadle was. After NewsHour recalled the 2016 moment to Trump, the president continued to tout his popularity among African American voters.

tuberville couldn’t name the three branches of congress

trump still isn’t qualified to be president

the guy ossoff running against mostly just uses the senate for insider trading

how the **** is the media against R’s again?

Had to go to 3 places to find one that was short line even though all 3 said “less than 30 mins” on the website :roll_eyes:

Surprised you didn’t vote by mail.

Were you just worried about riggage and that they wouldn’t count it?

Yeah I voted both times in person; last time no line and this time about 20 people outdoors; no line once you go inside

Takes about 3 minutes once inside the building to vote and walk back outside to my car, with 100% mask compliance inside (95% in outdoor line) so I don’t see it as worse than going into a store.

If I lived in an area where they purposefully cause long lines then I woulda done it by mail.

He was already doing this, tho

Warnock slightly favored now

So, according to CNN, Loeffler wasn’t actually campaigning with the Klansman, he was just a random who took a photo with her.

If that’s true I’m not sure whether to think more of Ossoff or less.

Clearly the “When they go low, we go high” doesn’t work, so maybe he deserves kudos for playing in the dirt.

Oh yeah, I definitely think more of him.

Yeah, it certainly seems like she just took a pic with the guy. Whether or not she’s telling the truth on knowing who he was, who knows. But the bottom line is a) white supremacists love Republicans, and b) why the fuck not say she was campaigning with a Klan member? Republicans say all sorts of shit about Democrats.

Next up, I hope: KL campaigned with a QAnon believer. Bonus - it’s true

Republicans are calling warnock the most radical person for senate.

in Georgia

that’s a long record, like long long. Probably not even top 10 long if we’re even taking their claims at face value which we are not.

btw, black% of the electorate, is better than the pace of the general election. (I said point or two, probably still is just a point or two but dems now slight favorites)

Richard Russell was from Georgia and just Google him

I’m concerned that the left amplifying her campaigning with QAnon and the Klan will actually help turn out more Trumpers to vote for her than it will hurt her with R moderates.

I understand your impulse, but I don’t agree. An overwhelming majority of racists still want plausible deniability about their racism. In the same way that many of them want to limit the definition of racism to “using one of three specific racial slurs,” I think the Klan has a toxic enough brand name that it’s even underwater with racists.
