GA-SEN 2020 Class III Megathread: She Who Loeffs Last

[morgieb]

Is Loeffler the worst appointment of all-time?

[TrendsareUsuallyReal]

Wouldn't be surprised if she's forced to drop out after this

[GeorgiaModerate]

Wouldn't be surprised if she's forced to drop out after this

I'll be contacting her office tomorrow demanding her resignation, and encourage all the other Georgians here to do the same (and tell your friends!)

Sweet...Jesus...

She’s certainly giving McSally a run for her money.

The hubris astounds me. Republicans are trying to do everything they can to lose these states it seems

Loeffler apparently caught for insider trading.

Honestly, this isnt good news in terms of the Senate race. Basically solidifies that Collins ( the stronger candidate) will be republican.

They're both weak General Election candidates. The GOP will slide even further in the suburbs with Collins.

Collins is actually a solid candidate for the general. Think of it this way-- if Trump wins, so does Collins, and I could envision him outrunning Trump a bit. I can not say the same of Loeffler, particularly after this.

The GOP is already max'xed out in the rurals, whereas they still have room for decline in the cities and suburbs.  Collins isn't exactly the type who can recover the GOP share of urban and suburban votes, whereas a non-corrupt Loeffler could help make up the difference.

And before you bring up Brian Kemp, he had his own unique style of campaigning.

Yeah, it was called voter suppression.

#hottake: Kelly Loeffler would almost definitely lose to Warnock if she went to the runoff after this

A style Collins can't replicate? He ran, and Collins is running, as a Trump sycophant. And I do not see Collins doing worse than Trump in suburbs, probably a smidge better still.

Why is this a hot take? I'd say she is more likely to be criminally prosecuted than win a full term after this lol

Because some people in this thread think the fact that she has a vagina gives her “unique appeal” to the suburbs

[Suburbia]

Loeffler is a succesful, self-made businesswoman, but you don't do this crap while you are in office.

Loeffler will probably not last long.

Collins can defeat Warnock by 2-3 points and if a Democrat wins in 2020 could probably hold on to this seat in the 2022 election. He won't have to face voters again until 2028, when demographics will be changing Georgia.

If Warnock defeats any of them, it is because he turned out Atlanta black voters, Stacey Abrams' machine helped, and Biden-Harris or Biden-Demings probably won GA.

Warnock would probably lose in 2022 or 2028 to Austin Scott or Tom Graves...

Same.

[Roronoa D. Law]

Dang Kelly, you spent all this money to be in the Senate for 2 months.

[free my dawg]

LOCK HER UP!

Collins would be toxic in the suburbs.

Kemp was supposed to be too.

[Blair]

What the actual f**k was Kemp thinking when he picked her? She's been a complete disaster from the start in every way possible.

Are there any Georgia posters (or people more in tune to state politics) who know why on earth Kemp picked her? Was it a literal F you to every elected republican in Georgia?

Roland Burris says hi.

She is a woman with lots of money, married to a husband with even more money.
That's about it.

Her ability to keep the seat for the GOP by self-funding & (presumably) not being as much of an electoral disaster for the GOP in the suburbs as Collins.
