Price's 6th District House Seat in Georgia - Dems look to pick up this seat

[vantexan]

This narrative is absurd on its face. It ignores the fact that republicans spent an equal amount. It has been a reliable red district for 40 years and republicans had to spend $23 million to hold it by 3 points. The majority of people do want more of Obama blue sky, they just aren't properly represented. We'll see how Wisconsin shakes out at the SC where 40% of the vote got republicans 60% of the representation. You can pretend republicans have a mandate but it's not backed up by vote count.

And yet the Republicans have control of all those state legislatures, all those governorships, the Federal government. And you still think they don't have a mandate to govern? Wishful thinking. Y'all are trying everything in the book to prevent them carrying out the will of the majority. And you have to look at changing demographics too. Atlanta's metro area has grown exponentially with people from all over the country moving in. Stands to reason the Dems thought they had a very good chance to take it with all the Press hype, celebrity endorsements, money spent. One thing Southerners can't stand though is outsiders trying to tell them how to think. So they came out and supported Trump with a win.

Someone who lives in Tejas pretending to understand Southerners. Now that's funny!

I thought for a moment he was from Georgia, even from the 6th district as he appeared to so completely understand the situation. But then appearances can be deceiving.

I'm the product of folks from Alabama, Georgia, Arkansas, and the bootheel of Missouri. Was born and raised in Florida when it was still a Southern state in more than geography. And East Texas is very southern.

Unfortunately, it was raining (no Obama blue sky) and most Dims don't own a car so that was an obstacle.
They could have ridden the bus or their bicycle but they elected not to.

Now now, the Dems all drive SUV's and are hypocrites about the environment.

And yet she couldn't even mention his name. Lmfao!

I'm aware. You know what? I love the Prius! There, I've said it, and I'm not ashamed.

If you mean Handel mentioning Trump ... she did but it was not a key part of her campaign.
She said she wanted this to be about her and her message rather than Trump ... take that as you desire.

That's pretty much the story. It's a majority republican district so if republicans turn out they will win.

Now is what we call a participation trophy.

Tuesday AM - Georgia for the democratic win as we pick up momentum for a democratic turn around in 18.

Tuesday PM- what you expect after all they are all republican districts.

love the spin

 

[newfie]

It rained a good part of the day so a boost to Handel ... .

so you're saying republican voters are not afraid of the rain? or democratic voters don't want to get their weaves wet?

While Drumpf is claiming to have built the Panama Canal.

the difference being he could have where by most dems couldn't change a light bulb

 

[newfie]

He won't be by the end of the year.

January you said he wouldn't last 5 months. I guess he's growing on you

 

[newfie]

Trump didn't send Handel to Washington.

Georgia voters did.

must be that vote thing I heard about

 

[newfie]

Trump speech last night - "they spent close to 30 million on this kid , who forgot to live in the community he was running in".

perfectly phrased by the trumpster.
