remember how disappointing it was when Ossoff lost this race just last year ? how much everyone had put into trying to win it ? but all of that effort helps in later elections. think of Beto's current loss and how impressive it was that he came close in such a red state.

Beto on the ballot helped flip the Texas school board, for instance.
McBath was no doubt helped by the presence of Abrams on the ticket. Ossoff was running all alone.
