    1. @Johnson Hunglo historically the party in party gets crushed in mid terms so the fact it’s close is goddam miraculous

    2. @Wildmouse Orange Face is developmentally challenged and mentally ill. Oh and let’s not forget he is a pathological LIAR. I also think he will be/if not already/ the most hated individual in America/ or perhaps the world.

    3. @Gregg Ron and the dumber are getting dumber 🤪
      Donnie didn’t find enough uneducated it seems 😁👍

  1. The problem in the U.S. is that people like Duncan who is lucid, is still going to choose Walker over Warnock to stay in power; a real moral failure.

    1. REDS have nothing e.g. morality/character/integrity etc. Sadly individuals lacking critical thinking skills believe their lies.

  2. This election makes me feel like the infection has been identified. The cure takes a while to get in the system. But we are on the way. I still have hope. 😊

    1. Then you are NOT awake at ALL. Clearly you still don’t know how deep the allergy the gop base has for truth sense and logic is. They WILL continue to hail trump. And he WILL be their nominee.

    2. @Not here yet lost let’s not fight one another. Who does that help? R’s. So, let’s not. We have to leave the all-or-nothing mentality behind. Let’s take these amazing wins and build on them with a positive perspective on the future. I’m so thankful and appreciative of all the democrats and independents and even republicans got up and went out there to say NO. Not enough have seen it yet, but as the world moves on without them, they’ll get it. Let’s not turn everyone away with all of this harshness. Yay for those who won!!!

    3. @RM as every single report from every country has told us, inflation is worldwide and caused by corporate greed and supply chain issues. I won’t fight about any of that. As a matter of fact, I won’t fight at all. There’s enough honest data out there if people truly want the answers. But it was made pretty clear that election denialism is not going to be accepted by the country as a whole. Democrats are Americans also and we vote. 🤷‍♀️

  3. How did we get to a point where Herschel Walker is mentioned in any conversation about running this country?

    1. @laurent deteix yea, we both gotta admit we have shitty candidates. You got biden , we got hershal….i imagine you or I could be a potus one day if we lie enough lol

    2. @YT Sux but let me ask you honestly….are you better off now then you were 4 years ago ? Be truthful 🙂 You only hurt yourself by denying the truth weather you like it or not 🙂 i hear inflation is highest in 40 years…..

    3. The fact that Walker (with NO experience whatsoever) received 50% of the vote tells you something about that state

  4. Exactly as a Independent I’m so OVER all the BS we need to come together & my State Pa show just how OVER the BS we are💪🏾💪🏻💙♥️

    1. You had 2 terrible choices, and if you voted for Fetter the Ogre, that’s not exactly something to be proud of. Your state embarrassed itself this season.

    2. First take the black culture off our streets it’s very bad shootings,thug life,cribs,bloods,it’s a culture drivebyes mmm

  5. I must say, respect to the Lt. Gov for recognizing incompetence when he sees it. I wouldn’t vote for Walker either.

    1. He said that walker didn’t earn his respect yet, which means appearently walker can somehow make up for his lifetime of past misdeeds in 6 weeks lmao. The republicans are all a bunch hypocrites just lusting for power regardless of who they give it to as long as they have an R and even better if they’re stupid bcuz they can be manipulated any which way they want

    2. You missed what he said when his priority is to make GA RED. Like too many republicans it is about PARTY not about the quality of the people

    3. @Leeanne Bishop Walker was selected to peel off the black vote in Georgia. Fortunately; the brain damage he suffered during his career came back to haunt his campaign.

  6. We really need to make elections winnings, with the popular vote only; because both sides are more concerned about the party winning, more than the people winning.

    1. That’s why the confederate gargling, magacult minority, desperately argue against repealing the confederate pandering electoral college.
      Their arguments are always such ridiculously obvious straw grasping, that it’s impossible for them to not notice, which makes their posts comical.
      They know it’s a mechanism for minority party rule and that the votes in low-population, low-cognition yokel states count at 1 voter = 1 vote, while the majority of American citizens are counted as 1 voter = 0.66 vote, and will dance around anything that might acknowledge those points, while crying about fairness and protection from one party rule.

    1. @We Don’t Need Politicians Not too bright are you? Regardless of the pledge, our constitutional republic is a democracy. How do we elect our representatives?

  7. Agreed, we need to move on past Trump and choose quality conservatives. I’m a moderate-conservative (former liberal) that voted mostly democrat this midterm because the low quality Republican candidates.

    1. @Josh Guyette May I ask, just out of curiosity, where it is that you voted “mostly Democrat”? Not a jab, just curious. I’m an independent and here in my district we had one house seat on the ballot so there was no “mostly” of anything. I voted Democrat because our representative has done a good job representing our district and has spent the vast majority of her time on the issues that impact this area, rather than traipsing around the country from rally to rally. I have voted Republican and likely will again…someday, but I tend to “lean” left on many things. Perhaps if we see some more moderate conservatives, you could convince this moderately liberal independent to lean right sometimes.

    2. Come on, really.
      That guy in PA looks like a cro-magnon man. He had a stroke a lost brain functionality. How is that even close to a quality candidate?

    3. @Keoki Ciervo probably because the left has gone way too far off the rails, it’s what’s happened to me. Wbu?

  8. I never thought I’d see America, the beacon of democracy, a country I’ve always looked up to and respected, voting to end democracy and election deniers.

    1. This shouldn’t be a “Wow” moment, but it shows how f’up we are. Duncan has never drank the Kool-Aid, is always measured and rational. He doesn’t go low like so many MAGA jokes do, now look at them.

  9. “Turn the page on Donald Trump”? They do realize that he’s only running for President to avoid indictments? Well, sending him to jail is good enough for me and good enough for America.

  10. I liked hearing the lady at the end speak about principles vs popularism. Great point. A nation can be great when good people speak up.

    1. You noticed the quiet GOP in Congress and their enablers sit and frown, when any idea surfaces. It’s like; ” Zombies in a House of madness. “

  11. I can’t believe that Walker has the backing of nearly 1/2 the people in Georgia, and it’s hard to believe that so many people voted for Kemp in that state. Bad move, GOP.

    1. Abrams never had a chance… Walker/Warnock could still go “split ticket” we haven’t decided yet for the runoff.

  12. “You know, I think a lot of Republicans like me are waking up this morning and going, “What could’ve been? What could’ve been if we would’ve picked a better candidate that could’ve won with a margin like Brian Kemp? That would’ve been able to put real leadership on display, real ideas on display…?”

    Yeah, what might have happened if you had picked someone with brains and integrity instead of a complete goddamn clown show?

    Not that Kemp has much of either, but the choice of Walker shows how far off the mark you are.

    This will probably come down to a runoff. If it does, Walker is not going to have the free ride of downballot votes on his side. Yesterday, it was Walker as a follow on from Kemp. In a runoff against Warnock, with nothing else to help him, he’s screwed. As he should be. He has no place in politics.

  13. “Walker has not earned my respect yet.” Well, given the respectabilty deficit he’s got, it’s a damn tall order but he’ll back him eventually anyway.

  14. I’ll be driving 6 hours down to Georgia to help the Warnock campaign. If you possibly can, please go as well. Our democracy needs our help.
