I don't know what to do with my hands and I'm sick to my stomach. So yes, it's November 3rd all over again.
I keep getting texts from the GOP encouraging me to vote in the GA Senate Race. I have never lived in GA.

Ugh. Lots more maskless people here today than in Nov. Like they all decided that now that our major hospitals are full is a great time to get sick. Morons. Guess it makes it easy to do exit polling. |

I think part of my (perhaps misplaced) confidence in this, is that DJT won't necessarily throw any weight behind his kids. He's about himself and him alone. Unless he's dead I don't see his cult followers straying from him, even if its one of his kids. Kind of like how his camp was like "well he'll rally in georgia, get out the vote!" and all he's done is commit treason trying to stay in power and (please dear god please) hopefully torpedoed their chances in the senate. Or maybe I'm just pollyanna because I had a good day today. lol I do think he'd rather dabble in "maybe I'm going to run" for 4 years for his ego/the attention rather than throw any weight behind one of his kids. |

CNN said earlier that Black turnout was up 3% over November in early voting. I would not be shocked that all of Loeffler's attack ads focused on Rev. Warnock's preaching is at least partly responsible for that turnout. 90% of her ads focused on his preaching.
But once again, we are looking to black voters to save us because we can't count on anyone else.

I swear if GA elects these senators and files criminal charges against T, I’m going to restart my pressure campaign with H to move back. Go Georgia Go!! I've been trying to think of what to promise the universe if they both win, and I can't figure out anything big enough 😂 It’s an empty gesture. He’ll just laugh at me like he always does. |

Here!
I have a friend in GA that said she received an email from the GOP that encouraged her to not vote because fraud. 2021 might be Can't Make This Shit Up the sequel.
She is not voting Republican.

I’m just going to lurk in here for the day and hold my breath. I’ve been really nervous about what will happens today, tomorrow and at inauguration — but reading all of these threads have kept me sane and balanced. Almost there — and hoping for a few more positives to cheer for!

Rep Higgins is citing a bomber getting charged 30 years after the crime that investigations take time. I guess that means he wants to keep Trump in office for 30 years while they pretend to investigate fake crimes.

Good sir...investigations take time.
A lockerbie bombing suspect was just charged last week, that happened in 1988.
I HAVE TEARS

LOL. I hope this is part of their downfall. I have two friends who moved to Atlanta since the November election, so that's two new blue votes! |

I never play here, but I'm popping in to ask what is thought of th Proud Boys crap and if it's going to amount to anything.
I have people I know who are getting involved and I'm pretty worried.

We moved offices yesterday all day so today i have two weeks of emails to distract me while I chew off all my finger nails. Come on Georgia.
Also, re: our conversation yesterday, I found this potential confirmation bias soothing:

Amount to anything in what way? They are a white supremacist hate group that cause a lot of problems all over the country but so far their official numbers are relatively small. |

Uhhhhhh did Grassley slip up? Do they not expect him to be there because he’ll be on the lam? Because he’ll be president so he can pardon Trump? Because he’s a whiny little bitchnugget who doesn’t want to preside since he lost? The possibilities are endless.

Sigh. Ohio passed/signed by DeWine a stand your ground bill and a bill that requires aborted fetuses to be cremated or buried. I’m severely disliking my state lately.
