Qasim Rashid, Esq.

BREAKING! Senator Warnock wins the Georgia runoff election! ❤️ Dems now have complete control of the Senate and complete control of all Senate Committees. ✊🏽 GOP's “red wave” was a wave good bye. 😉

Congrats to Senator Warnock on his reelection!❤️❤️❤️

@QasimRashid They must be seeing something in where the remaining vote is coming from that enables that call, because Walker has a 7,000 vote lead at the immediate moment. But the big counties around Atlanta have yet to drop their votes...
Show threadPippi & ObiJuan PupsDec 7, 2022
@toxtethogrady @QasimRashid no way the smaller red county votes still outstanding, which is not many, can overpower the metro ones.
Show threadToxteth O'GradyDec 7, 2022
@TinCanWin @QasimRashid That's what I would expect. Margin is 15,000 for Warnock ATM but pending more complete counts from Fulton and DeKalb...

@toxtethogrady @QasimRashid Cobb is also out. No way the remaining red votes can overpower all of metro ATL. Just not possible numerically.

@toxtethogrady @QasimRashid dekalb will be the last flood of Warnock votes. I think still 75% in, so 25% out.

Show threadUSRVRoverDec 7, 2022
@QasimRashid Totally agree that this victory is very important. Warner is a truly good man, and the Senate majority will significantly change the balance of power; but control of committees alone, as critical as that is, will not grant "complete control" until something can be done to limit Republican filibusters. Just a thought for those who don't understand the legislative process.
