If you turn out and vote, you are likely going to vote both democrats or both republicans.

Warnock will definitely bring out the rube racist vote. On other hand, Warnock might really get other people to polls in the typically low voter participation runoff.

Ossoff did get close to Perdue — a percentage point or two — in election.

They both can win.

I think Reverend Warnock will have the easier time due to his experience and but Ossoff is incredibly sharp and an outstanding debater.

I think we have an excellent chance to win both seats but I think the Reverend will have an easier time due to his better name recognition, intelligence and ability to relate to the listener through his experience as a pastor.

I'm feeling really good about both.

So the results will be the same fr both, either both win or both lose. It's all about turnout

well below Ossoff's numbers, there is ZERO chance to not chalk it off the pure racism. Especially as his opponent Loeffler, as stated, is a woman, so you cannot say that deep down many people will still prefer a man of any race over a woman (one of the reason's given for Hillary losing Obama voters despite her being white) if this indeed does happen.
