Well, but no way to pick up cash - that’s what I was saying - the probability of her objecting was essentially tracking exactly neck-and-neck with the probability of her losing.
Also Biden gets to confirm who he wants for cabinet posts. Mostly.
Unfortunately, I expect the question we’ll be asking most often going forward will be, “What will Joe Manchin do?”
Ossoff closing, only 3k behind…
Alas, not unless the filibuster is nuked. And at least a couple of Dem Sens have been on record as being opposed to that.

Something something radical socialism.
LINOs!
Yes! I hope Turtle man is really pissed that Trump effectively screwed him out of the leadership position.
Who was it who said tonight that if the R’s lose one or both seats, it will be entirely Trump’s fault?
I suspect after the first two or three pieces of legislation get stalled by a pointless filibuster, those Senators will come around. They bloody well ought to.
Is it looking like Perdue ossoff will trigger the recount?
One could argue Trump had the winning strategy: make sure as many $2,000 checks hit bank accounts by 1.5.2021.
This is actually, potentially, an awesome night for Biden. He can now speak about bipartisanship without too many eye rolls from the left. Not that partisanship is dead - not by any stretch. But bipartisanship’s at least possible now. There’s an incentive for moderate Republicans to be moderate again - maybe.
Only if Ossoff wins by less that half a percentage point. I think he is going to exceed that when all the votes are finally counted.
Ossoff only 500 votes behind! This is fun to watch.
Whoa, that changed fast.
Literally at 50.0 to 50.0.
I’m not sure. Can we call in @D_Anconia for a consult?
Warnock is probably 99% likely to win now, Ossoff 95%.
The only way either of them loses now is actual cheating.
384 now.
I don’t need the vote to be called tonight, but I just need to see the balance tick over to Ossoff so that I can go to bed.
Trump tweeted an hour ago:
Looks like they are setting up a big “voter dump” against the Republican candidates. Waiting to see how many votes they need?
