    3) Ease of voting. Time restrictions and polling stations. It is no secret higher turn out is not in the current administrations favor. It is also no secret that the powers that be are not scared of limiting polling stations or even eliminating polling stations.
    Or limiting time access to vote. See (D) gains due to mail and absentee voting. Also see the lines and wait times.

    4) Intimidation. Period
    .;;;;;;;;;;;;
    4) What (D) learned this time is pure numbers. People want (D) policies , polling tells us all that, Kemp etal can read too.
    The old aciom , when you cant win on policy you argue the politics. When you still csnt win attact the personal.

    5) It is more and more clear that it is the vote and getting out the vote that will combat generations of voter suppression in confederate states

    There is/are for sure attempts at voter suppression


    That doesn’t have anything to do with voter fraud

    I'd actually start the Loeffler-Warnock one as Lean D (and I believe the oddsmakers have it as that) and to me the other one (Perdue-Ossoff) is somewhat to moderately likely R.

    I don't think it's actually that likely that you see this end up being a split, but I really question Loeffler's popularity (even though we've seen the brutal attack ads begin) because of her involvement in insider trading. Regardless of how this one goes, she's not going to be in the senate long, IMO. Either she gets voted out in January, primaried out with the 2022 primary (I doubt people are going to forget by then), or voted out in 2022 (slightly less likely, but still plausible).

    I actually think both seats are very winnable but the messaging from Ossoff just hasn't been able to translate. The only situation where I can see him winning is if Warnock is able to generate enough black turnout that he drags Ossoff over the finish line with him.
    Aggression with prospects is fine, but being stupid is not. There should be a way to find a happy medium between a Pirates like idea of being overly cautious with prospects and going stupidly fast with prospects.

    And she actually has a Parler account (this one was just fake), which says a lot, imo.

    I am not going to actually go into Parler, but the link is in this tweet if others want to:

    I was posting it more as an update than an endorsement. I dislike his policies enough to know I won't vote for him. I imagine everyone else either agrees or disagrees and the mudslinging won't change their minds. I guess it drives turnout but I despise it. Tell me your policies. I'm not voting for someone to be my friend or to babysit my kids, I care about your policies.

    You kind of already went into Parler with the "which says a lot imo," comment, you just did it without supporting your vague assertion.
    I think the predatory T&C these people agree to without reading when they sign up pretty much guarantee that the Parler fad is going to end in disaster. I also understand how the uneven censorship of Facebook and Twitter has created a market for an alternative. I do not understand why someone would imply that a Parler account is indicative of a character flaw.

    I don’t think you can run for office these days and not get labeled a racist at some point. It used to be a claim that was pretty bold, and serious.
