Concede? I'll be surprised if he even comprehends it, that dude is as dumb as a box of hammers. However, he'll be a good stooge for Republicans and their bidding, it's all they care about anyway.

Pretty sure Warnock is winning it.
That said, I honestly don’t think anyone will care if Walker concedes or not. Won’t help them at all, especially given that Walker has allowed himself to be rightly ridiculed.
I reckon many who will vote for him will not necessarily care enough to defend him.

Here's a link for NPR's tally. Despite the headline below, it's about the Georgia runoff for US Senate, and they are using the Associated Press as source of data.

Sounds like things went pretty smoothly overall, with good turnout. Here is an update from Fulton County, the largest county in metro Atlanta area.

Crazy that it’s even close, but I think sanity will prevail.
I don’t expect conservatives will do much reflecting, they’ll just begin flexing their muscle in the house, but they won’t actually accomplish anything because they have a rather large circus caucus and the senate will be a road block. But that will make them more likely to ramp up the circus act.

Well. when you figure Georgia was a pretty red state until just recently, there’s two black guys in a senate race and sanity will end up prevailing, that’s still a good sign.

Yeah, I would expect it to be even closer than that in the end.
The race keeps tightening as more results come in. I think they’ll end up less than 1 point apart. Frightening that there’s so much polarization that so many people are voting for someone they know is an idiot with a tainted history.

This is what I can't get over. WTH is wrong with those voting for Walker? I mean why? The mind boggles.

Walker is now in the lead with 67% in. I feel sick.
It’ll be something if Warnock wins by 11,779 votes.

The Washington Post notes that Warnock is outperforming his own 2021 vote... and the Post's model predicts Warnock will prevail tonight.
With 76.2% of the vote in, Warnock is ahead 50.4% to 49.6% -- and those metro county uploads yet to occur.

I hope so. B/C I'm also reading that Walker is performing far better in Northern GA than last month.

The wonderful Marjorie Taylor Greene lives up there somewhere... in the 14th CD, in the northwest corner of Georgia. She campaigned for Walker and donated money and was even cited for excessive campaign contributions to Walker by Georgia's state Democratic Party officials, but the FEC dismissed it 5-0 with 1 not voting, decidingi that it was a low priority item because "it wasn't a lot of money." The accusation was that past the limit of $2000 for a straight-up to-candidate contribution, she had also contributed $3k worth of Facebook ads which amounted to in-kind contributions and so took her total contribution over the limit. But she was cleared so Walker got $5k worth of help from her.

The Georgia Democratic Party said Greene's campaign illegally boosted Herschel Walker's Senate campaign, but the Federal Election Commission unanimously disagreed.
