.@emarvelous says we need to look at “how much can minority voters, can young voters in those areas really eat into those Republican margins? That is the kind of thing that’s going to make a difference,” as numbers begin to pour in from major metro counties across Atlanta.

Young people are often told to vote for their future —but the system doesn't always work.
"We have to engage in a kind of radical demand for fundamental change...defund the police is just a gesture, but it carries with it a certain set of policy assumptions," @esglaude says.

.@esglaude on getting racism out of politics: "The Republican Party in particular has to stop dancing with its racist elements...as Georgia shifts, these sorts of commitments, these sorts of racist appeals, they will fall on barren ground."

.@Carolyn4GA7 on why Georgians voted for someone like Marjorie Taylor Greene: "She won a runoff, which is a low turnout election, in her primary. And then turned around and basically, you know, has voters who are going to vote for anybody who has an 'R' next to their name."

Voter turnout on election day typically favors Republicans. @emarvelous explains that we need to keep our eyes on “whether those Republicans ended up being Georgia Republicans or whether they were Trump Republicans because those two things are not necessarily the same.”

Vaccine expert @drjeromekim1 isn't surprised at U.S. rollout failures, citing the federal government's lack of a logistical plan: "It was the same with the distancing and masks…that vaccine is a weapon to fight the war against Covid. Well, wars are lost because of logistics."

It’s tough to find an adequate precedent in U.S. history for Trump Republicans’ current anti-democratic, self-serving power grab, says historian @HC_Richardson: “This makes Nixon look like he was, I don't know, having tea.”

It’s not the most important thing in Trump’s hour-long call to pressure a GA election official to flip the state’s vote results, but: Why is he so excited that the official’s lawyer’s surname is “Germany”?
“Come on,” @scaramucci tells Mehdi. “You know the history of Trump.”

“We should impeach him every day of the week and twice on Sunday,” House Judiciary Democrat @RepSwalwell says of Donald Trump. But it won’t happen, so he’s supporting a censure resolution, adding that after Trump leaves office, we’ll need “a presidential crimes commission.”

Mehdi: “Does this [phone call scandal] increase the chance of Trump self-pardoning?”
Former Mueller team investigator @AWeissmann_: “It doesn't increase it, because he is going to do it, 100 percent.”

Trump "has clear legal exposure" from his Georgia phone call, says former DOJ attorney and special counsel investigator @AWeissmann_ -- but only, he adds, "if there are prosecutors either in Georgia or in the new incoming DOJ who have the backbone to do the investigation."

“Breaking news tonight: Republicans have given up on democracy. That’s it. That’s the news.” Fortunately, there’s a *little* more to it than that, and @mehdirhasan lays it all out for you in about five minutes -- the bad, the very bad, and the ugly:

Just how tight are the Georgia Senate runoffs? *Very,* says @TIAreports, reminding viewers that “Democrats need to win both races in order to win control of the Senate,” and also that “It’s hard for Democrats to win runoffs.”
