Georgia officials say that predictions and results will start coming out starting tonight and tomorrow morning. Polls have Ossoff up +1.8 points and Warnock up +2.1 points on average. It is important to note that the average margin of error for the presidential race is 3 points, meaning that anything could happen. Also, the poll averages are from FiveThirtyEight, which decided to include both the Trafalgar group and JMC Analytics, giving Ossoff +12 and Warnock +13 in total, shifting the average to the left. Polls close today at 7:00 pm ET.

Given the current tallies for early votes, 30% of voters are above the age of 66 and 21% are 56 to 65. This could be a huge advantage to the GOP since older voters tend to be more conservative. In terms of race, 56% of voters are Non-Hispanic white, 31% are Non-Hispanic black, 2.3% are Hispanic, and 2.5% are Asian American. Currently, 3 million votes have already been cast, reaching 70% of the turnout seen in the 2020 presidential year.

To recap the profiles of the candidates, let’s start with Warnock and Loeffler. Loeffler is most notable for her insider trading “scandal”, selling stocks after receiving information not available to the general public about the coronavirus pandemic. Warnock on the other hand is being called an open anti-semite and a Marxist. He has compared America to Fidel Castro’s Venezuela and also ran over his ex-wife’s foot during domestic abuse. Surprisingly, he has the upper hand, probably because of the MSM’s blatant attempts to cover up for him. Perdue has been called a “Washington Insider” by attack ads from the Ossoff campaign. Ossoff is being called a radical from attack ads for his “support of AOC’s 90 trillion dollars green new deal”. Ossoff has called out Loeffler for “campaigning with a klansman”, although this has been thoroughly debunked.

On Tuesday, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnel blocked Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer’s attempt to unanimously pass a bill to increase direct payments year-end coronavirus relief packages from $600 to $2000. 

He claims that the Democrats have “quietly changed” what President Trump wanted in the bill. He adds that it lets wealthy households suck up even more money. McConnell says the Democrats are trying to do away with the repeal of section 230 and a review of the 2020 election.

“The Left took a break from trying to defund the police to try to defund our Armed Forces,” McConnell states. “Their amendment went down in a landslide. But now our colleague from Vermont [Sanders] is again putting political stunts before the needs of our men and women in uniform. Our colleague says he will slow down this vital bill unless he gets to muscle through another standalone proposal from Speaker Pelosi that would add roughly half a trillion dollars to the national debt, which does not align with what President Trump has suggested and which has no realistic path to quickly pass the Senate.”

The topic three priorities for Trump are larger direct payments, repeal of section 230 of the communications decency act, and a review of election integrity. McConnell says these three requests have not been adequately addressed and the job of the senate is “to ensure the president was comfortable signing the bill into law, the Senate committed to beginning one process that would combine three of the president’s priorities

“Three of the president’s priorities in one Senate process. That was the commitment, and that’s what happened yesterday when I introduced text reflecting just what the president had requested. Now, House and Senate Democrats want something very different. As they have tried to do countless times in the past four years, Speaker Pelosi and Leader Schumer are trying to pull a fast one on the president and the American people.” said McConnell.

Chuck Schumer testified in front of the Senate, asking for senate Republicans to join the rest of “America”.
