BREAKING NEWS: Handel Holds the 6th
Republican Karen Handel has won Georgia's Special Election for the 6th District for the House of Representatives. This is a big win for President Trump and Congress.
According to Fox News the Democrats and Ossoff lost the GA Special Election after spending over $20 million on Ossoff's campaign. CNN reports that this is "the most expensive US House race on record." Handel won 53% of the vote of the 6th District. In Handel's victory speech she thanked Rep. Scalise, "...right up until that tragic day on the ball field, Steve would drop me a text message every single week just to make sure I was okay and hanging tough. I think he even called me 'the Terminator' in one of them," she continued, "all we need to is also lift up this nation, so that we can find a more civil way to deal with our disagreements."
There is a continuous pattern. The Democrats spend millions and still lose. The 6th District of Georgia has been redrawn numerous times and it is these types of districts that the Democrats need to be winning if they want a shot at gaining control of the house. They need to get suburban districts like the 6th and more importantly rural districts. In 2006, the Democrats won the house because they won rural districts like that in Indiana, rural Ohio, and western North Carolina. The Democrats also lost the Special Election in Kansas and Montana. Ossoff just did not represent and reflect the values of this district, and lets not forget he does not even live in the district.
Overall, voters are sending a message to Washington by voting for Handel. They want his agenda to continue and are showing that they do not regret in voting for President Trump. Handel represents fiscal conservatism and social conservatism, which is what the people of the 6th Districted showed in tonight's win.
