The Trump Backlash begins with this political Prop Bet: Ossoff vs. Handel

32-32

Ossoff Leads by 3 in Latest Poll of Georgia 6th District..close to the MOE....

The poll, conducted by Trafalgar Group, surveyed 1,100 likely voters with a 2.9% margin of error. Ossoff saw 50% support in the survey vs. 47% for Handel.

One vote Ossoff won't be getting is his own..since he doesn't live in the district he's running for..

..and you can't always follow the money ..ask Hillary...

 In one of the biggest upsets in American political history Donald Trump was able to do win after spending nearly half of what the Clinton campaign spent...  Clinton spent nearly twice as much as Trump per vote ..but, hey she bought the popular vote..

Betting on another democrat ... which any reasonable person would need to acknowledge that your immense bias is most likely blinding your judgement.

The left has been wounded so bad in this country that their hope is in a house race in Georgia on a guy who has no idea nor cares about the problems in the country or the district and can't even vote for himself

first off, on behalf of myself and hugh jorman, i want to re-welcome scalabrine for what we expect will be a long stay in the politics forums.

secondly, it's tough to handicap these small races.  i've seen polls showing ossoff +7 to even.  based on that, i don't love a line of -145. 

this is an interesting district though.  it has all types of people covered.  if there is a trump backlash, you could definitely see it here.  but this district normally goes republican (a lot of Meth in georgia ).

i have no idea about this one. 

While I suspect Ossoff will pull this off. I think we have entered the age where polling is obviously flawed and wouldn't put substantial weight on a poll showing him ahead by too much.

Well thanks Club.

You do realize:

1. if he wins its 1 seat

2. That republicans conservatives Christians and moderate democrats have about had enough of this extreme left wing BS

The fact that people believe that this election no matter the outcome means anything about anything shows how fuc%ED up the left is. And how the Democrat Party is falling

Sorry Mr. Scal..but who REALLY cares???

Handel has received a death threat letter covered in white powder

{Yoda Voice}Tolerant you are Liberals!

I'll say it again....

06/16/17---- Landmark Communications latest poll of likely voters has Ossoff leading Handel 49.7% to 48%...With the poll's margin of error at nearly 3.5%...

Scal what are your thoughts on hillarys use of the term "super predators", while stumping for bill, the 1994 voilent crime control and law enforcement act and one strike youre out. How can you rationalize support for hillary knowing what these acts have done to the black community. 

 Democrats are so desperate to turn Ossoff into a legitimate candidate..  Congressman John Lewis made a outrageous comparison......he called Ossoff the new JFK.   Oh My!

In early voting 140,000 had already voted in the runoff as of Friday, a sign of ongoing voter enthusiasm...this race will be determined by turn-out..


Note: Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich (R-Ga.), was the representative for Georgia's 6^th congressional district from 1979 to 1998.

Disregard my previous post, it was intended for your "trump would never ..." thread. Not sure how it ended up in this one. (Long day on the water yesterday).

the super predators comment was fine and accurate in describing gangs, but your larger point is right in that the law was a big problem.  this is what government does.  some bad garbage happens and then the government overeacts by creating a new law that gives the government even more power and they end up friggin it up by abusing it and applying it in more situations than it was intended with the end result being things are more fucked up than before.   minimum mandatory penalties is the best example of this. 

absent a law to address new technology (sexting laws, for instance), we don't need any more new criminal laws.  we have all of the laws we need to address whatever bad things people are doing. 

for voting purposes, as usual, the answer is to vote for real conservatives, who pretty much don't exist so the next best thing is to avoid big government republicans, particularly the "law and order" types.
