But I wouldn't bet on it. NC is looking like it's not happening either. So sadly, no.

If we get that and the two Georgia runoffs, we control the Senate, by virtue of the tie-breaking vote of vice President Harris.

All hands on deck until the January 5 Georgia runoff!

I think we could have gotten a Senate Seat out of NC, if he wasn't caught in his sexting scandal.

Why did they pick a guy like this? Who can the Democrats put up as viable candidate in NC?

He is a charming guy with what appeared to be a great family life. When scandal came to life, he already won a primary and was our candidate.

Any guesses as to why?

They can't afford senate run offs where there will be increased scrutiny of the vote.

But seriously, there may be enough pressure on one of GOP senators to switch to Independent or Democrat. It happened before.
