Otherwise, obstructionism will be the order of the day.


I'd suggest that the alternative (Democrats not getting both seats) would be the preferable option, as it would require compromise between the 2 sides.


False premise, Republicans never compromise. Just look at the Obama years.

NBC Projects Ossoff as winner. Dems take control of Senate

With 50.3 percent of the votes so far, Ossoff has a lead of 0.6 points over Perdue.

That's outside the margin for a recount in Georgia (0.5 percent), so it is basically settled now.

The Republican Party have now lost it all since 2016.

Their House majority (2018)
Their Presidency (2020)
Their Senate majority (2021)

... and their decency.

Do not forget that the Supreme Court Justices appointed by Trump also dismissed his legal efforts to have the election results overturned.

The elections were close and I most definitely believe all the election is rigged talk made the difference. So MAGA’s all three branches of government are run by the “commies” thanks to you. And for you white supremicists your state is now represented by a black and and a Jew(I wanted to use other words but WP rules prohibit me).

Georgia represented in the US Senate by a Jew and a Black wow I never thought I would see that.
