"SNIP......

NBC News: “That strong turnout was the key to Warnock’s victory, as the Democrat improved his results in almost two-thirds of Georgia’s 159 counties. The biggest improvements came in Stewart and Johnson counties, where Warnock’s share of the vote rose by more than 5 percentage points.”

“Warnock did better even in Republican areas of the state, as he improved his vote margin in 77 counties that voted for his GOP challenger, former football star Herschel Walker, in November’s election. Warnock also flipped two counties, Baldwin and Washington.”

1. The turnout was pretty much what I had hoped for.

I predicted 100K+ margin of victory, we got 95K.
I'll take it!

2. Dean's 50 state strategy, Fetterman's every county strategy, reach the voters and they vote!

3. Duh.......

Even a few Republicans can see that their party is fucked up.

4. Color me shocked and overjoyed. I always get depressed during midterms when we control...

the White House. I avoided all news & DU for about a week and a half, because I was afraid of the outcome. I was pleasantly surprised to learn that we weren't massacred as had been expected. I hope this portends well for the future. I just want the country to get back to some form of "normal", whatever the hell that means nowadays.

5. Biden is bringing normal and goodness back and he is masterful at it.

7. I couldn't agree more. I just hope the Gods, or whomever, keeps him healthy till he's as old...

as his Mother was, and beyond.

8. I know. Some people remain young into their 80s. I noticed he didn't

use a railing to go up stairs during the 2020 campaign. Noticed he used a railing to go down airplane stairs recently. That doesn't mean anything. Heck I use a railing and I'm not yet 60.

6. From what I could find. More voted for Warnock than in November.

And just few less for Walker.
