    Ossoff running about 0.8 percent behind Warnoff, which could led to a split decision. Gonna be close.

    From 538:


    "Per those same rough calculations, there are about 685,000 votes outstanding in blue counties and 350,000 votes outstanding in red counties. (Of course, not every vote in a blue county will be for Democrats and not every vote in a red county will be for Republicans.)"

    If this scenario plays out, all I can say is, Trump likes conflict, and he's got it.

    It's all gonna be behind the scenes. They may fucking hate Trump and they may blame him, but they're still scared of his voters.

    I tried to do the math on what’s outstanding and what’s needed to close the gap... and it looks like Ossoff needs an extra 50,000-ish votes out of maybe 1.15 million? That’s not insignificant. Too tired to delve further.

    Perdue is in "it's not literally over but he needs to score, get the onside kick, score again, possibly multiple times" levels of bad shape.

    The Washington Generals had a better record against the Globetrotters than I had with donations to Dem Senate candidates before this one.

    So which autopsy (presuming a Democratic sweep) holds sway over the GOP?
    A. Trumpism is wrong. We should revert to Chamber of Commerce Republicanism.
    B. Trump can win in 2024.

    They desperately want A, they would do anything for A, but their voters want B. It would take someone with vision and leadership to make a stand for A, and I don't know if they have any of those left.
