    1. The system is completely rotten. The Georgia election is as rigged as November 3 election. Its a shame. Loeffler got minus 24000 votes at 95 % counted.

    1. @The Truth Is Out Now 777 Says the pathetic, desperate “3 week old” tRump troll account 😑 Stfu

    2. @The Truth Is Out Now 777 yup I’m the snowflake says the guy who’s having a fit about Trump losing the election.

    1. Are you kidding me? America is a race based society. It’s very foundation is genocide and slavery whilst establishing a white supremacy hegemony. It’s in the books.

    2. I’m european and this would not be seen as normal here..very strange,but then again there are a lot of things in the US that don’t make sense for the rest of the world (ex(guns,no healthcare etc).good luck to all& just stay safe!!

    3. There is nothing more authentically American than racial politics. You would be surprised at how many Americans don’t really consider minority American citizens as truly “American”.

    1. @Kidd Tee and it’s not false. Your just brainwashed by the media. It’s in
      Your name your a kid. Look up his accomplishments and you’ll see

  1. Steve can turn statistics that seem kind of boring into something exciting and interesting. Glad they invited him back to present the Georgia election.

    1. @Prickly Pear But, in an election the voters are who we care about. Non voters are irrelevant because they chose not to participate. Anyone who can’t be bothered to vote doesn’t really matter for the purpose of this discussion.

    2. @Brand New . . . Soooo. . . why care about voters’ race and age at all? A vote is a vote, right? But if we don’t know the PROPORTION of those voters (by race and age) who “chose not to participate” RELATIVE to the states’ demographics, then we don’t know ANYTHING! We don’t know where to concentrate our efforts or why our efforts either failed or succeeded.

    3. @Prickly Pear I wish that a vote was just a vote, and that all votes carried equal weight. Unfortunately, this is not the case under our current election system. For instance, I live in Manhattan. My Presidential vote carries less weight than a voter who lives in Billings Montana. A person living Omaha, Nebraska has a more valuable vote than some on living in Los Angeles, California. That’s why I agree with those who want to abolish the dated and unfair Electoral College system. It feels very much like people who live in the Midwest and the South are given too much consideration and value, especially when so few people live in these areas relative to the coasts. When we have had two of the last eight Presidential elections won by candidates who had more Americans voting against them than for them. That’s not the will of the people. We shouldn’t have leaders who the majority of the country does not want in power. It’s wrong.

    4. @Prickly Pear Voter demographics are important for us to understand where the country stands in certain respects. It tells us what issues are import to which people. It tells us how united or divided the country is. It tells us whether certain candidates or tactics are being accepted by which groups and which are being repudiated by which groups. It’s tells us in what areas our leaders need to focus. It helps the candidates to understand their constituency, and how they should vote on certain issues in the legislature. It tells you about which demographics are changing, which areas are changing. Exit polling and voter demographics give us a lot of important information that we can use to better understand one another, and better meet the needs of our community. Those who vote are the ones who actually care. We need to understand and respond to those who care. Candidates can talk specifically to groups that they need to represent, voter demographic information makes that job easier. Back in the 1950’s and before, candidates only really catered to and acknowledged white Americans. Millions of non White Americans were completely ignored, and their plight, their beliefs, there aspirations were completely ignored. It wasn’t until the 1960 that a spotlight was beginning to be put on black Americans. Since then we have harvested data that helps us to better understand many minorities and subgroups. It is an important step in realizing America’s potential. Minority groups that may not have the numbers in and of themselves to affect change, have been able to join forces with other disenfranchised groups to build a formidable coalition that makes up such a large group that those running for office are forced to take the needs of these minorities more seriously. Without voter demographic information, it would be difficult for groups to understand who is voting and work out which common areas could present an opportunity to build a powerful coalition that can’t be ignored.

  2. Blows my mind that young people, and 30 or less is not that young don’t care about their future enough to make their voice heard.

    1. I will never vote by mail again I don’t want republicans next time to stole my voice and my vote but anyways my vote count because I vote for a blue wave

    2. Young people dont vote cause they dont care. And one of the major reasons why they dont care is cause they don’t own anything in their name. They’re too early in their life to own a house, pay taxes, or do anything that truly contributes to society. So even tho this is one of the most important elections of their life, it doesn’t really affect them.

    3. @G Mercer you got offer young people something more tangible like Medicare for all and forgiveness of student loans

  3. Never want to hear young people complain about the world being handed over to them when they never show up to vote for their own future.

    1. Bill, you’re right. But what you don’t mention is that the boomers are a much larger voting bloc and thus are even more culpable for this problem.

  4. The people of the US are trapped in a septic tank, arguing if it’s better to be a pile of crap reaching toward the exit or the sludge that fills the rest of the vat.

  5. Sad to know young people do not vote in crucial elections. Their grannies get to select other grannies to mess them up!

    1. This isn’t supposed to be funny but this makes me think of an army of moody mumbling grannies that won’t shut up about the evils of technology

  6. As mush as I am invested in the Georgia runoffs, I’m just as excited to see Kornacki work his magic.

  7. We fwu Steve💯 He is really dedicated to making sure our anxiety is cured in 1 night😊🤷🏾‍♀️
