Georgia peeps

How is the runoff elections going from your vantage point? Are the Democrats hammering the point that a vote for them is a vote for a COVID economic package and stimulus, while a vote for the Republicans is a vote against a stimulus...I think that should be their biggest focus instead of the “Purdue and Lloefler are crooks” talking point....also, the Obama’s, Harris, and Biden need to be down there NOW, and not wait for a rally one week before Election Day

I don’t live in Georgia (or anywhere near) so I donated money. What are you doing to win? We all need to do what we can, give of our money or time whatever we have to give.

But OP seems to think that the Party isn't doing enough, or doing it to their satisfaction, or that it is easier to backhandedly complain about the Party by asking people on the ground to back up their assessment. Hence my post mirroring their phrasing that I apparently should've marked as sarcasm.

Because everyone seems to think I'm the one complaining about Dems, and not the OP who has all sorts of grand ideas of things that they should be doing to their satisfaction.

coRona McD's is in GA. WHERE is the DNC?

Obama needs to come now! We need a counter for the saggy diaper this coming Saturday.

The mail ballot #s appear to be stuck!

wtf

This should ALL be about the CoVid relief and Mbitch's attempt to steal the election by denying everything in the Senate from the 80 million strong American Patriots!

Just being a do nothing puke, with NO ideas. No healthcare. No infrastructure. No economic relief. People getting sick, going homeless and hungry. These low life magas repukes just get in the way and let crook grifters grift.

hurting.

But I don't think that will sway many voters. The ones who understand stimulus will really help are probably already voting for Democrats. The other folks are either making it OK or think keeping the economy "open" is the way forward.

Unfortunately, the GOPer ads are directed at branding Ossoff and Warnock as Socialists, Marxists, in Warnock's case he's supposedly a disciple of Jerimiah Wright, and similar BS. Democratic ads are directed at branding Purdue and Loeffler crooks who lied about the threat of CV19 and supported trump.

I'm hopeful because regaining control of Senate would be huge, but I'm not not going to be surprised if one or both GOPers win and win big.
