I’m kinda bouncing between two versions:

1. Both Republicans win by wide margins adding fuel to the stolen election narrative.

2. Both Democrats win but more people voted than live in the state.

Should be fun tomorrow!

3rd option...a split, leaving McConnell in control of the US govt., the most powerful man in the US, one who has shown for the past 12 years that he doesn't give a damn about the average American...it's all about power, F everybody, except the rich and big business...

at least two more years of GOP Senate stonewalling any Dem proposals, causing outrage on the left...Biden forced to issue executive orders, causing outrage on the right...but with Trump out of the picture, the imminent threat of violence in American politics will be tempered by a mild mannered anti-Trump...and everyone can breathe a little easier...America will re-engage and re-assert itself on the world stage

we'll be running in place until the 2022 mid-terms, it's gonna be a dog-fight then...hope I live to see how it turns out...

Or option 1 proving folks voted against trump while still voting Republican down ticket further proving there was no fraud that resulted in Republican gains across the board except for Trump.....

Also proving how stupid folks can be.




Seriously I don’t know what will happen. I think both R or split. I’ll be surprised if both D but who knows. This BS campaign by Trump is pretty transparent to any thinking individual.

that has always been the reasoned response to the election results...GOP at the state and local levels did much better than Trump, but he got clobbered...so this election was more a referendum against him...

must have really bothered him...his comfortable "reality" of life in politics being a reflection of his campaign rallies never let him see the real USA...that was part of his reasoning that the election in Georgia was very wrong, because his rallies attracted 10-30,000 people while Biden didn't campaign and when he did, he only got 300 cars to show up...

again...the reality of the pandemic was his blind spot...

You should be alive to see the 2022 election. That’s right around the time Czar Newsom gets you the vaccine.

I predict that trump will claim that the vote was rigged - even though he's the only one trying to do so.

sticking with lessons learned from my father (would be 105 today if he were alive!) I'd like to see a split in Georgia.

Having been taught I shouldn't want everything I am for to happen in order to prevent a dictatorship, what's probably a greater good would be for Senate majority being one party, House being another party, and POTUS being either...at all times.

I agree frank. I prefer the government to have to fight hard for major change.

Sounds like you guys are scared of what hell you will have ushered in if the Democrats take the Senate!

Ya, I don't like when conservatives have all 3 either. Just glad trump was a sh*tty president and couldn't do a lot with it.

non specific policy fear. actually.
Same if the House went Red during midterms (OK, worse).
It's not just what either might do if in total control, it's having the opportunity that I'd like to keep preventing.
So sometimes I vote for candidates who are not specifically with me.

Lately I've thought a bit about the last two POTUS elections. I voted Libertarian, yet many claiming to be Libertarian voted Trump...and GOP down ballot as well. Seems counter productive to the philosophy.

Just so you know, you will both be blamed for all the Harris/Biden disasters in the coming months.

TDS aside, I find it weird in a delusional kind of way that someone would vote for Biden/Harris and think they are getting a non-sh*tty combo in comparison.
