    I predict that Warnock wins, but by much narrower margins than the 3 to 4 percentage points that the latest polling suggests.
    Any takers?

    It doesn't really matter since it won't change the balance of power.

    Well balance of power in Senate may not change but the balance of power in the Committee will change and that will make a huge difference. Today Senate Dems can’t start an investigation unless they have GOP support. IF Warnock win that will change. Every time House GOP start a crazy investigation Senate Dems should start one against Trump administration or JAN 6.

    Warrnock win will also empower DEMS in GA. Most often DEMS in RED state or GOP in Blue state don’t vote because “ what’s the point”. but last 3 elections showed that GA became a purple state and voter turnout is the only thing makes difference.

    Thanks for the reminder on the committees.

    One extra vote in the Senate can also make a huge difference.
    It's been called a" crucial cushion" when dealing with Sinema and Manchin.

    Credit where due:

    If Trump had not sprinkled his magic fairy dust on Perdue, Loeffler, and Walker, the Senate might well have been a scary place.

    Trump endorses challenger to Ga. Secretary of State Raffensperger

    Raffensperger Wins

    It looks as if Uncle Billy finally has
    a rival in the Peachy State.    ​

    without Trumpism and the Abortion fiasco, the right might have had a red wave - and looks like they plan to double down come 2024 :)

    Well it’s looking like a runaway at the moment.

    So far yes, I do expect it to tighten as more votes are counted.

    I am not sure about the mail in count. You may be correct.

    To quote Wasserman, I have seen enough. Warnock wins the runoff giving the Democrats control of the Senate.

    Over and done, I hope. I could not wait to be done with this election. I knew what the result would be before they started counting the votes. And, no, I'm from Florida so my opinions didn't matter.
