Fun fact: if Trump accepts defeat gracefully, or at least doesn't spend two whole months raging about fraud with no evidence, Georgia's Senate seats probably remain Republican easily.

Still another 135k margin coming for the dems in DeKalb.  Perdue will net about 25k from Columbia, 14k from Floyd, and that leaves him short by 35k.  This really, really sucks.

In the 2016 Senate race, Dekalb delivered 207k Democrat votes.  And no, there has not been an influx of people moving into Dekalb over the last four years.

In the Trump election, Dekalb discovered 50% more Dem ballots than they did in 2016 while the population has remained stagnant.

Well I’m surprised. It’s all Trumps fault.

Does this ever hit me like a ton of bricks - the Lincoln project and NTers were right, by golly. Man, am I sorry I supported him. I’ll never leave the plantation again - just tell me who to vote for next time,GOPe.

PA has spoken.  The legislators are overruling the Secretary of State.

I wanted to win the Ga runoffs as much as anyone.

But here’s how you automatically lose them.

1) Rep Party abandons Trump.
2) Rep Party does ZERO to address voter fraud.
3) Absolute dumbass Mitch McConnell and RINOS sign Porkulus bill, screw America, then brag about it.

Looks like they are setting up a big “voter dump” against the Republican candidates. Waiting to see how many votes they need?

It's interesting how much faster the rural counties can tabulate their votes.  The urban areas must have difficulty finding volunteers who graduated the second grade.

[Right_in_Virginia]

[Right_in_Virginia]

from NBCnews
 88% of “expeccted” vote in:

Loeffler 51.5% 1,964,719 Warnock 48.9% 1,881,657

Perdue 51.5% 1,980,060 Ossoff 48.5% 1,866,109

[cato potatoe]

Loeffler can forget it, but Perdue still has a chance if there are enough scattered same-day votes still coming.  The remaining ballot dumps nearly offset his present margin.  He did terribly in the north Atlanta suburbs.  Future of the GA GOP isn't looking too swell unless they reverse that trend.

Just waiting to see how many they need.

Why do R-led counties continue to fall for this?  Why do they not simply delay reporting their totals?  "Water pipe leaks" and "technical difficulties" shouldn't be all that uncommon.

Even if these R-led counties really believe the electoral process is scrupulously fair, do they not recognize that they could give people greater confidence in the result by stopping this predictable pattern?

Imagine the liberal and media outrage if R-led counties nationwide simply did not report their results until the following morning.  And what the spin would be to justify the D-led counties then waiting until the R-led counties went first.

Why bother voting anymore.

UPDATE: just confirmed. Chatham County is done counting votes for the night.

The board of elections annex building is empty. Workers say they’ll be back at 8 a.m.

Still thousands of votes to be counted here. @WJCLNews

With 92% of vote in, Perdue is up 118,990 and Loeffler is up 86,580.

DeKalb is saying 130,000 votes left to count; Gabe Schafer is saying 170,000.

Savannah quit counting.

This is when the steal happens.

Waiting to see how man RAT votes they need. At 8am they will know.

[cato potatoe]

All but 5% of DeKalb came in.  Perdue is basically tied with Ossoff.  He still has a decent chance, but his election won't be called anytime soon.  Dumbasses in Savannah are done counting for the night.  I'm signing off too.

[Right_in_Virginia]

Why don't Purdue and Loeffler just declare victory?

I really don't like the new normal when counting just stops.  How do we put this genie back in the bottle?

[Mesaclone]

Game over. Flipped to the Dems thanks to the De Kalb dump.

This is what happens when you have a state in which the leadership...Gov and SOS oppose the President of their own party and the two candidates give tepid support. The NT/RINO wing of the party has cost us the Senate...and the Presidency.

We are F'd.

[Right_in_Virginia]

Gabriel Sterling, the guy in charge of the voting in GA was just live on CNN. He stated that it has been reported that 117k votes were outstanding in Dekalb. He then when on to say that the 1 and 7 were transcribed incorrectly and in fact there are 171k waiting to be uploaded. He also added that is historical trends hold, the two D’s will be in the lead after that batch is counted.

[catfish1957]

This is my first moments and comment on this thread for a reason.  I knew the fix would be in when it was stated this afternoon. that dem leaning counties wouldn't complete counts tonight.  Add the fact nothing in their electoral systems have changed since November 3rd?   Dims are laughing their asses off at us.

I stayed up all night November 3rd, and what we are seeing a bad political drama rerun.  Basically the Steal Part II. Verbatim.

Visit a Wendy's in the urban areas just south of downtown Atlanta and you will get a good sense what the problem is...

Brace yourselves, Purdue's dropping like a stone.
