Warnock has to run again in 2022. If Loeffler had two years left, why was there an election?
I know Loeffler was appointed and all.......

Expect some crazy policy proposals during the next 2 years. Democrats have to get all they can before the 2022 midterms and they will try for the most radical proposals in order to "radically change" America before they loose some of their voters when they realize all that glitters is not gold. Black Americans are waking up slowly to the realization the democrats promise and seldom deliver. When they do is tends to harm black family structure not lift them up.
 
Is anyone going to look into Jon Ossoff's communist China ties?

Welll, I am sorry that your fear the Democratic boogeyman (all of that is not possible as they do not have the votes to do anything radical), but unlike far too many of your Republican friends, at least you can accept reality and look forward. The healthy discussion is about the direction we go, rather the unhealthy discussion of denying the present. Good for you!

Brian Kemp appointed Loeffler to complete the Senate term of GOP Senator Johnny Isakson who resigned his seat for health reasons.

Due to laws regarding temporary appointed Senators, Loeffler was required to run in a special election on November 3, 2020.

Since she did not obtain the mandatory 50% of votes, Loeffler then was required to participate in the January 5 runoff election.

The original term of Johnny Isakson was to expire in 2022, hence Warnock must run again in 2022 to retain the seat.

Thank you! I don’t know what the others were responding to....................🤷
 
With Ossoff now up by over 16,000 votes, they may as well call it. Here's what is left to count.



He's going to win by close to 50,000.

Right after all y'all pull the tiny orange mushroom out of your butts.

Just be happy it was so small you won't need to wear a plug for the rest of your life.

The same reason Martha McSally was up for election last year. In order to complete the retired or deceased Senator's term, an appointed Senator must be on the ballot at the next general election. Not all states have that law, but Georgia does.
 
And that it went to a runoff. She would have won it without Democratic voters getting a second chance to vote for Raphael Warnock.

Warnock actually was the leader in the race in November. The guy that is kicking himself is Perdue, who finished a few thousand votes short of polling 50% in November. He could have avoided the runoff.

There is no reason to suggest he has any without posting proven facts from totally unbiased websites. He never ran for a federal office before, so any report about him being involved with the Chinese government is obviously a lie.
 
I don't like the idea of one-party control, we need a balance of power.

But if the majority votes a certain way then that's the way the pickle squirts, and we have to accept the results. Protesting and ranting about it is senseless.

Expect some crazy rants about radical socialists taking over 'Merica... :rolleyes:

Odd claims as it seems blacks are waking up that they can stand tall in the Newt South and took control of Georgia... ✌

Somebody else orchestrated this, someone with much greater skill and confidence than myself.

Cooler heads prevailed, I had no intention but to cream the Republicans.

I lost Florida and Texas and the Kentucky Seat.

I rushed my bloop in the runoff debate though, shut Loeffler right up more than I would have, almost lost Warnock.
