Ossoff just 1.5% above Clinton's result in DeKalb.

> Assuming the rate of returns will trend the same across the night.

Evidence it isn't:

4% > 9% was 60.6% > 57.8%
9% > 20% is now 57.8% > 56.7%

I've been wondering this, and I wanted to know:

How would Ossoff's beliefs be defined as?  Moderate, liberal, or progressive?  And please explain why.

Also, when I mean liberal, I mean in the middle of moderate and Elizabeth Warren-style progressive.

Without a track record it's hard to be sure.  His ads have a very bipartisan message that, as a centrist, I found appealing.  If I lived in the 6th, I'd have voted for him.

It will be Ossoff vs Handel. Handel will win the runoff easily.

Fulton is 1% in. And Cobb is roughly 25% in. Not over yet, not by a longshot.

Yeah, I checked his website about what he thinks about the economy, and his was somewhat vague, except for on minimum wage and equal pay.

Most of the vote coming in is from Cobb County, most heavily GOP County.
https://twitter.com/SeanTrende/status/854502992225210369



Now 29/43 DeKalb precincts are in, and Ossoff (D) down to 58% in DeKalb. That is short of what Ossoff needs.

I think nyt might have it as 67% in. That's real bad if you are rooting for Ossoff.

Is there any network doing live news coverage I can watch? Don't get me wrong, I love following what you guys have to say, but I need to go hands free for a while.

I feel like within the next two vote reports (if that makes sense), Ossoff will be below 50%.

He's been holding at around 56-57% for a bit now, and 85,000 votes are counted. That's surely right at or over a majority of the total vote by now. Hmm.

Maybe not.  One of the analysts (sorry, I've lost track of who) was saying it looked like turnout could approach 200K.

He's got only one route left. Do fantastic in what is left of DeKalb, and try to keep the margins down in Cobb and Fulton which will obviously continue dropping in total vote percentage for him.

It looks like GOP enthusiasm for Trump (or against Democrats) is as strong as ever.  I think it would be a mistake to assume it'll be any weaker in the midterms.
