| Democrat Jon Ossoff falls a bit short in Georgia's 6th Dist. |
| 2017-04-19 |
In the early hours of Wednesday morning, thirty-year-old Democratic candidate Jon Ossoff fell just short of the 50-percent-plus-one vote total he needed to avoid a June runoff with the GOP’s Karen Handel, the former Georgia Secretary of State who finished in a distant second. CNN declared the race a runoff between Ossoff and Handel shortly after midnight. |

| #8 I like the headline over at Politico: Democrats begin to wonder: When do we win? For all the roiling anger and energy at the grass roots, the party still fell short in Georgia and Kansas. And Democratic prospects in upcoming elections aren't promising. |

| #1 ....punctuated by unusual technical reporting delays from Fulton County, the largest county in the district. Exploding roadways, burning interstates, missing Cobb County voting machines, criminal activity, random small-arms fire, that sort of thing. |
