10 days left until the Georgia US Senate runoffs (#4347)

      More than 1/4 of the eligible Georgia voters have already voted. Which is a bit more than 2 million cast ballots. If we get to 5 million cast ballots overall, like in the general election, then the prospects of we democrats winning these two senate seats is improved. With less than that we are not as well situated to win unless the usual republican base has been convinced to stay home. I would not count on that despite all the noise from a divided republican party. But a wild card here is the stimulus and what will happen if two democratic senators are elected. Surely the republican base has to be considering this as a republican majority would make a hefty stimulus package impossible.
     Sometimes feeling really desperate economic pressures will make one reconsider their options in life, especially an option that is just 10 days away. For the rest of us democrats and like minded independents the choice is really not a choice. We know that our incoming president will be thwarted at every turn despite the best intentions of our incoming president. The republican party will do one thing only and that is destroy our decisive election victory of last month over the next 2 years if they hold the senate. Which is why we cannot let them! Our base has to vote like it is even worse than trump staying in power. Because the effect of a republican controlled senate will be huge losses by we democrats in the 2022 midterm elections.
     If we democrats do not control the senate in 10 days then the republican party will win the 2022 midterms and then have both the House and the Senate and our president will be left with getting nothing done at all. That it had to come down to this is regrettable but not undoable. We lost some senate seats we should have won in last month's general election but by winning these 2 senate seats in Georgia we will have accomplished the effect of a mandate that cannot be misunderstood. We will never be able to correct the flaws in our constitution until we have democratic control of our government. Taking private money out of politics is a must and then making registering to vote, simple and easy, as a federal law.
