Looks like America is insistent on showing how stupid they are

[RhodeIslandOne]

This lady in Georgia is the epitome of a fat stupid bible thumping piece of shit. America gets what it deserves.

1. The winner isn't known yet.

P.S. Fat shaming isn't necessary. Calling her a stupid bible thumping piece of shit makes your point.

[RhodeIslandOne]

2. It should not even be close

Quite frankly, in a perfect world this dumb fucking goon would not be permitted to run for office.

[madaboutharry]

4. I agree with that.

I don't understand how she got a single vote other than the one she cast for herself.

[BannonsLiver]

16. What's hard to understand?

This district has been sending right wing moonbats to congress since 1979.

[madaboutharry]

18. That people are so dumb.

It's just phrase.

[janterry]

3. Looks like both races are going the other way

the fault lies not in our stars, but in gerrymandering.

[dflprincess]

7. And voter suprression

and unverifiable voting machines. Problems that the Democrats have ignored since 2000 and now the Republicans don't even bother to try and hide what they're doing because they know they won't get any push back.

[Wellstone ruled]

9. So agree,and

we have been screaming about this since. Only going to get worse if it could.

[bresue]

5. You realize that their pastors tell them who to vote for.....

And they follow like dumb sheep!

[RKP5637]

6. Many Americans are just that, sheep, breed to be sheep, and follow the ruts laid out by

authoritarians while being told how free they are in a most brainwashed country.

[bresue]

8. You are so, so right!

[jalan48]

15. This is true-church's tend to promote "group think".

[Honeycombe8]

10. It's very tight. Heard on tv that neither candidate is liked that much.

Ossoff doesn't live in the district, he said. What the pundit said was that he was hearing a lot of talk about Trump, not the candidates. Handel isn't liked much, either.

If he doesn't win, it doesn't portend well for 2018 and will not cause Congressional Republicans to re-think their plans.

It matters that it's close, in this district. But in the end, a win is a win. Maybe it'll go into a runoff or there will be a recount, regardless of who wins.

12. Ossoff explained on MSNBC last night that he lives in a nearby district because his fiancee

is finishing med school and can walk to the hospital from where they live. When she finishes school, they will move. He said people have told him they are glad he is being supportive of his fiancée's work.

11. She makes me sick. Like Trump, I can't even stand to look at her for more than a second.

The sight of her just outrages me. What a stupid, hateful woman!

[narnian60]

17. +1000

[grantcart]

13. Exactly what I was thinking

Even if we win we got a whole lot of stupid in this country.

[edhopper]

14. Those who are counting on a Dem sweep in 2018

should take notice.

[Honeycombe8]

21. Sad but true. Repub just won S. Carolina.

The Dem got 48%, Repub 50% or something. So it was close in a heavy Trump area, but the Repub won.

What matters most is winning, although coming close in Trump territory gives reason to hope for 2018. But winning is necessary to get the attention of Republicans, change their plans on what they're doing. Otherwise, they view a win as a win, and as a rubberstamp for the direction they're going.

But it does show the enthusiasm for the Dems in these Trump territories, and it is worth noting that the Dems are doing better there than they have for decades.

[Initech]

19. The bad guys win again.

[NobodyHere]

20. So you're fat shaming and religion shaming

in a country that's fat and religious?

WHY AREN'T WE WINNING!

[RhodeIslandOne]

23. She told a woman with a gay daughter her "faith" trumps her rights

But I'm glad you're happy with that.

[Freethinker65]

22. America did not get what it deserved, voters in that district did

Those that voted wanted to defeat the opposition liberal progressives to a fucking pulp. They did not even listen the the candidates' positions. They just always need their perceived side to win and are passionate about it. Ossoff ran a pretty moderate campaign and if he had somehow had an (R) after his name, he would have won in a walk.
So a heavily Republican Georgia district replaces a rubber stamp R with another rubber stamp R. Not a real surprise.
