Raphael Warnock winning: What a relief.
Herschel Walker getting that many votes: What a sad commentary.
@StevenBeschloss It’s rather disturbing. Walker was clearly so far out of his intellectual depth it was laughable…yet was the first choice of nearly 1.7 million voters. I’ll never understand why people vote for unqualified dolts.
@KimberlyN @StevenBeschloss We had a PM that talked utter gibberish Mr Johnson , I agree I cannot understand why people vote for dolts either.
I have started to consider that perhaps some people vote for very odd reasons. They believe that a party will defend their interests and it’s not even about what the politicians say. In UK we now have a generation of far right voices arguing we are being invaded. It is tragic all because of the Brexit vote.

We see the same thing in Canada. Our political right now represents some of the weirdest conspiracy theories — yet people still voted for them. It wasn’t always like this…but we’re living in a strange time. The Brexit vote was the point at which I began to wonder what the heck was going on…it made no sense to me.
