Could SC-05 be a surprise victory??
 
   
Somebody who knows more about this district than, please tell me. I took a look at the Sec of State site. Right now it says


Parnell - 16,531
Norman - 16,198

Ballots cast - 34,409

So with only 1800 votes left to count, Parnell has a lead of 330 votes. Could he really win this sleeper? Am I missing something? <-----  yes dear, brains.

In this race Norman is the Republican, Parnell is the Commie

10. Parnell is a rich former Banker bankster. He likely did not need money sent.
 
The fact that he is a successful Banker Bankster likely give true traditional pause in voting for the other guy. <--- yup

It is one of those districts where if Democrats put money into it, we could have won. But democrats as a party pretty much ignored it completely  <----   :lmao:

Well, it is true that the Ds dumped ~20 times as much $$ into GA as they did in SC:

Quote
As they have in other special election contests across the country this year, Democrats recruited a field of candidates to make a play for the GOP-held seat. But the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee plunked only $275,000 into the South Carolina race, compared with a $5 million investment in the Georgia special election.

But the Rs also poured $$ into GA, and had the Ds split their $$ differently, the Rs would as well. I suspect Tigg's dream would not have changed the outcome at all, and might have resulted in slightly bigger R wins in both states.

Short answer --    NO
Then-Chief Justice John Marshall observed, “Between a balanced republic and a democracy, the difference is like that between order and chaos.”

John Adams warned in a letter, “Remember democracy never lasts long. It soon wastes, exhausts, and murders itself. There never was a democracy yet, that did not commit suicide.”
