Georgia Senate candidate Jon Ossoff said Monday that Democrats in the state “have the wind at our backs” as they seek to dispatch two incumbent Republican senators in a pair of January runoff elections that will determine control of the chamber.

“There’s a huge sense of enthusiasm and momentum here in Georgia right now,” Ossoff said in an interview on CNN, mentioning President-elect Joe Biden’s impressive performance in the state — as well as the organizing and voter registration efforts led by Stacey Abrams, the 2018 Democratic gubernatorial candidate.

“Now, to have two Senate runoffs for Senate control, with so much at stake — with this virus still raging out of control, with an urgent need to get economic and financial relief to families in my state and across the country — we have the wind at our backs and a great sense of promise and opportunity here,” Ossoff said.

Ossoff, an investigative journalist and former congressional candidate, competed against first-term Republican Sen. David Perdue on Election Day. Because neither Ossoff nor Perdue earned more than 50 percent support, both men will face each other again in a runoff on Jan. 5.

1. Sure hope so. Thought we had wind at our backs in ME and NC.

2. Yep! That's exactly what I want both Warnock and Ossoff to say.

A Republican Senate means NO COVID relief. Right here and right now, you MUST vote for Democrats because the lives of millions depend upon it.

Please please please! Let's get him elected!!

7. Both of those repuke Georgia senators did insider trading

Martha Stewart went to jail for the same thing. I hope they get Martha to do ads that she went to jail while they profited off the misery of corona virus victims.

This needs to be in ads everyday reminding Georgia voters.

8. It just went up by 50 bucks. Thanks for making this for both candidates and Fair Fight.

Now I can get rid of that abusive hysterical group that's been attacking me on my phone because I've disappointed them so badly because I didn't jump every time they sent me another pitch where they thought degrading me was a good way to get contributions. Here's my final message to them:

You think that abusing degrading and manipulating me and telling me how disappointed you are in me is the best way to get contributions. Well fuck you. I'm donating directly to Ossoff, Warnock, and Fair Fight. Get the fuck off my phone and take me off your list.

Not one thank you for all the times I've responded to your texts and donated to you. Nothing but brow beating and cajoling. I'm sick to fuck of you.

And FIRE your text writer.

9. TY Jon OssOff!
