I'm starting to think we will win both senate races

In Georgia, after pretty good polls this week and also the news of early voting being weak in strong Trump areas. Now I know this is all antidotal but it’s just that Trump is causing mayhem it might just get our voters out more. I did not feel this way weeks ago which I thought the Republicans would barely eek it out a win but now I’m thinking we might eek out a win.

I am thrilled that Biden won the state and that these two races are close enough to hope for wins. That is amazing and exciting.

I hope the Dems win - and think we have an excellent shot - but even if they don't, there's no shame in our game.

I’m afraid that’s how the rube-necks are in Georgia. They will turn out.

But, we are still in the running which itself is a big win.

and it will be in the courts for six months. Remember Al Franken?

And it goes without saying, I hope I am wrong about the courts.
