Steve mentioned 15k military votes...it also could have been 1500. But from what I’ve seen about the mailed ballots, I’m not sure if they would have arrived in time to return. The military and overseas had additional days. So they know how many they sent, but they also know that there is no way they will get them all back. I see it is 15k, H is rudely snoring next to me. 🙄 Apparently, some states allow those overseas to print off their ballots and mail them in. FL is not one of those and I don’t believe GA is either. Sister mentioned her coworkers from the northeast were able to send their votes in during the primary. Seemed relevant.

There probably aren't any more votes coming in tonight right? So I should go to sleep and @icedtea too because we won't miss anything, right? I am also obsessively staring at my TV while I should be in bed. I think it's safe though.

If you need a distraction and want to combine politics with blinds. Rumor is Kim K has been dating Van Jones. I may hate this pairing more than the current Kim K pairing. Back to watching results come in

I enjoyed a romp with DH and heard my phone buzz; I was hoping it was the race getting called! That would have been euphoric.
I’m so nervous that this doesn’t seem real that they might actually pull off both wins.

Yeah, I’m going to watch some Svalbard Island Tiktok and go to sleep. The girl is near the North Pole and it’s my escape for all this.
I think we can feel good. I have faith in Ossoff but feel very happy with Warnock.

Fuck I took a 3hr nap from 8-11. Dh woke me up to go to bed and now I can’t fall asleep and am catching up on this thread. I’m sad I missed the night with y’all but clearly my body needed sleep. Oops

I see Ossoff is up. Now to see if he can take it out of recount range.
I was also just woken up by a kid kicking me.

I really need sleep but I know it won't happen. I was just typing this. I took some melatonin. Hopefully I sleep some. I’m east coast and took 15 mg melatonin and I’ve been up since 2! Tomorrow will be a long day

Ds1 woke me up because he had a nightmare. He is back asleep and I am catching up. Looks like the Warnock race has been called and Ossoff is up 18k votes. If this holds it means that Moscow Mitch can't block cabinet appointees and judges.

You guys.
Gun control. Pandemic relief. Vaccine roll out. Abortion rights. Same sex marriage rights. Voting rights. Climate change. BLM.
I’m crying. Please let this all be true so we can start to heal this country.
I want the first 100 days to be a blood bath of correcting the shit Republican policies that 45 and his batshitcrazy admin put together. Just a complete reset. And then I want to load up the rest of the courts with democratic appointees. And then I want Mitch McConnell to cry on the floor of the senate when he realizes all of his power is gone and he watches everything he fucked up get reversed. He made his money, but goddamn it, he won’t fucking get away with it.

Thankfully when you try to subvert democracy not everyone embraces you. Go Georgia go! Now let’s all collectively hold our breaths as the GOP collapses onto itself today.
