The people have abandoned Trump. He sucks. He will be impeached or resign. Nobody likes him any more. Etc. Etc. Etc. But you just wait... that next election... that'll prove Trump is extremely unpopular. We're sure. It's real news. We're not making shit up. The 2018 elections will be a decisive victory for Democrats when they will take back the House and Senate and then in 2020 the White House too! Just you wait and see! We mean it! Seriously! Trust us! Did we mention that the day before the last election we stated that Clinton had a 97% chance of winning? Don't forget that! Er, we mean "Forget that!".
From the New York Times, with 79% of the vote counted:
Right now, our most likely estimates span Handel +0.9 to Handel +4.7. The darker region shows the middle 50 percent of our forecasts. The more we know, the narrower our range will be.
Our best guess is that Karen Handel is currently on track to win the election.

Never give up hope:
Democratic strategists we’re talking to say there’s still a path for Ossoff, albeit a narrowing one. Their hopes hinge on mail-in ballots. Those have yet to be tallied but tend to favor Democrats. Ossoff will likely need to win an overwhelming margin to stay alive. That’s a high bar but not unfathomable, we’re told.
DeKalb’s mail-in ballots are expected to be tallied shortly. That should be a big pickup opportunity for Ossoff, although he’s been underperforming there re: in-person votes tonight.

Now I'm just waiting for the "Russian interference" or "Russian collusion" memes to be launched... idiots!
