Twitter Celebrates Georgia Election Results

One Georgia Senate race has been called in favor of Democratic candidate Raphael Warnock, and his fellow Dem Jon Ossoff is incredibly unlikely to lose at this point, meaning not only that Georgia went full blue this year, but that the Democrats will gain control of the Senate.

Of course, this means Mitch McConnell, who has railroaded attempts to get financial relief to the American people during the pandemic again and again, is out as Senate Majority Leader.

It also means Kelly Loeffler and David Perdue, who have been accused of using their political positions for their own financial gain, are both out of a job.

There are so many things to celebrate here, it’s hard to know where to begin. Fortunately, we’ve got time to celebrate all of this, and Twitter wasted no time getting started the moment it looked like Stacey Abrams had pulled off this historic feat.

Here are some of the most excellent tweets in response to Tuesday’s election, and all that it signifies:

I am close with the Loefflers but I have to say there were some mistakes with the campaign. first there was the problem that Kelly is completely offputting and has no positive qualities. second is her husband is totally smooth. third is her ads explicitly stating “I am not black”

Yeah but she only plays with the white pieces
