Four major races shift in favor of Democrats as Senate looks more likely to swing Democrats see their fortunes improve in Ohio, Nebraska, Georgia and North Carolina

Not for nothing, but back in 2020, I said Jon Ossoff was a better Senate candidate than Cal Cunningham. Some Democrats got mad at me about it BUT I WAS RIGHT! Now Ossoff is kicking Republicans' ass in Georgia. #GASen

Amen, Senator Ossoff! So glad you are representing Georgia!

We need more strong voices like yours in Washington!

Democratic Odds of Taking the Senate Increase as Four Ratings Shift in Their Favor With an increasingly sour national environment for Republicans, the Senate battlefield is shifting in Democrats’ favor. But due to the difficulty of the map, winning back a majority still remains a ta...

What Tuesday’s elections tell us about the ‘blue wave’ — and why Trump should listen The special election in MAGA stalwart-turned-Trump-foe Marjorie Taylor Greene’s old district spells trouble for the president — even though a Republican won, Eric Garcia writes. And Wisconsin spells e...

People who should be excited about last night's special elections in Georgia and Wisconsin:
-Rebecca Cooke in #WI03
-Jon Ossoff in #GASen
-The Wisconsin Democratic Party
-Rural Democrats

People who should be terrified:
-Mike Johnson
-Donald Trump

With nearly all #GA14 votes in - a district that, in 2024, MTG won by 29 and Trump won by 37 - the GOP nom will beat the Dem nom by only ~12 pts.

Huge Dem overperformance & a GREAT sign for @ossoff.bsky.social in the #GASen race.

The Downballot's 2026 election calendar Find the dates for every filing deadline, primary, and runoff for the November midterms in all 50 states—and much more

See 2022 #GASen runoff. They moved the date up. It's in Dec. this year if needed www.the-downballot.com/p/the-downba...

Not one but two errors about special elections in tonight's NYT liveblog:

1) Five specials in Trump 2.0 have seen swings of more than 37 points, including one in LA in Feb

2) #GA14 could see *six* elections, because GA has general election runoffs, too—as #GASen watchers well know

Buddy Carter knows that Georgians are “hurting” because of tariffs — he just doesn’t care. #GASen

Mike Collins said he had “100% confidence” that Trump knew what he was doing on tariffs.

He didn’t. And a year later, Georgians are paying higher prices on EVERYTHING. #GASen

Georgia businesses are suffering as tariffs leave them reeling, but Derek Dooley’s just shrugging it off.

“Is it probably a little chaotic for businesses? I'm sure it's definitely.” #GASen

Screw it! I feel like making everyone mad. Here's some Senate ratings:
#NCSen: Lean D
#AKSen: Lean D (NEW)
#IASen: Lean R
#MESen: Toss-up
#NHSen: Lean D
#OHSen: Toss-up
#MISen: Lean D
#GASen: Lean D
#TXSen: Lean R if Paxton wins

Republicans privately fear this swing state Democrat Behind closed doors, Republicans have tamped down their hopes of unseating Jon Ossoff, a 39-year-old powerhouse fundraiser, as he seeks another term.

Less than a decade ago, Jon Ossoff was a no-name former House staffer who lost a special election in the Atlanta suburbs. Now, Republicans are afraid that he might be tough to beat this go-around. #GASen

Without any evidence, Buddy Carter insists that gas prices will fall and the war in Iran will be resolved quickly.

In the meantime, gas prices continue to soar, and Georgians are left paying the price. #GASen

Just like his defense of price-hiking tariffs, multimillionaire Buddy Carter defends Georgians paying higher gas prices from the Iran war as “just part of it” and “absolutely necessary.” #GASen #GAPol

Screw it! Senate ratings:
#NCSen: Lean D
#IASen: Lean R
#OHSen: Lean R
#TXSen: Likely R if Cornyn wins. Lean R if Paxton wins
#AKSen: Toss-Up
#MESen: Toss-up
#GASen: Lean D

Georgia GOP Senate candidates are running on “short term pain” of policies that are jacking up prices for Georgians. #GASen #GAPol

Buddy Carter is still all-in on tariffs, dismissing the "short-term pain" of 10 months. #GASen #GAPol

"We can't have a warrant every time."

The official position of GOP Rep. & #GASen candidate Buddy Carter is to IGNORE THE CONSTITUTION when it's even slightly inconvenient.

Noted.

Folks...

Ossoff accuses Trump of ordering Fulton County raid to suppress Black voters U.S. Sen. Jon Ossoff says the fact that Black voters helped defeat President Donald Trump in 2020 may outrage him more than the loss itself.

via @ajc.com : "Ossoff accuses Trump of ordering Fulton County raid to suppress Black voters"

“He sent them to Fulton County to seize your ballots on a pack of lies... why Fulton?...for the same reason [Trump] posts videos that depict the Obamas as apes.”

Senator #JonOssoff sees things they are and has the courage to stand up to the big lies and the big liers

We need to re-elect him to continue representing Georgia so the people can take back the Senate to return it to being the constitutional body it’s supposed to be

#GAsenate

#OathOfOffice

Mike Collins and Buddy Carter keep making excuses while tariffs increase prices and devastate Georgia’s economy.

And 10 months into this trade war, they just voted to block action to end these price-hiking tariffs. #GASen #GAPolitics

Calling the ultra-rich MAGA Cabinet "the Epstein class" is [chef's kiss] *magnificent* messaging.

Kudos, @ossoff.senate.gov @ossoff.bsky.social !!
