“The Myth of Jon Ossoff Died Tonight”: Hugely Touted, Massively Bankrolled Anti-Trump Dem Candidate FAILS, Faces Runoff

“The myth of Jon Ossoff died tonight. Despite a heavy advertising advantage and a national stream of unlimited resources, Jon Ossoff’s Hollywood-focused campaign finished no better than Hillary Clinton’s.”

The American people don’t want these hard-left shills for Soros and globalism. They want candidates who will put America and Americans first. The Democrats, the Party of Treason, still haven’t figured that out.

“Democrats Fail to ‘Flip the Sixth’ in Georgia Special Election,” by Brent Scher, Washington Free Beacon, April 19, 2017:

Georgia Democrat Jon Ossoff fell short of the 50 percent threshold needed in Tuesday’s special election to avoid the runoff election that will now be held two months from now.

Ossoff, as expected, was the top vote-getter by a wide margin in the special election to fill Georgia’s Sixth Congressional District, but he pulled in shy of the 50 percent mark that would have won him the seat outright.

When the results were projected by CNN and others early Wednesday morning with 95 percent of the votes counted, Ossoff was at 48.6 percent.

Coming in behind Ossoff in the eighteen candidate race was Republican Karen Handel, Georgia’s former secretary of state who ran unsuccessfully for governor in 2010. Handel pulled away from the crowded Republican field, receiving about 20 percent of the vote, and will now face Ossoff one-on-one in June.

Missing from Tuesday’s vote tally is a vote from Ossoff, who was running to represent Georgia’s Sixth Congressional District despite the fact that he is not currently one of its residents.

Handel said before the results of the election were known that she was proud that there was a “competitive campaign” between Republican candidates, and criticized Ossoff as the beneficiary of a “coronation.”

“There was no coronation, which is what occurred on the Democratic side,” Handel said. “Everyone brought great ideas and new perspectives to the table and I appreciated that.”

After the election results became clear, Handel called for Republicans to come together for June’s election. With nearly all the votes counted, the New York Times’ Nate Cohn noted that Republican candidates collectively received more than 50 percent of the vote.

“Tomorrow, we start the campaign anew,” she said. “Beating Ossoff and holding this seat is something that rises above any one person.”

Ossoff’s failure to settle the election on Tuesday comes despite over $8 million that was raised by his campaign, which was seen by Democrats as the first chance to make an electoral statement after the defeat it was dealt last November.

Republicans seized on Ossoff’s record-breaking fundraising numbers by pointing out that the money came almost entirely from out-of-state sources, such as Hollywood celebrities Chelsea Handler and Rosie O’Donnell.

Money was not the only form of support that came from outside of Georgia. MSNBC’s Kasie Hunt reported on Monday that volunteers were traveling from as far as Berkeley, California, to help Ossoff break 50 percent in the special election.

Republicans will likely target Ossoff over the next two months with the same playbook it used against him in recent weeks.

The 30-year-old former congressional staffer for Rep. Hank Johnson (D., Ga.), who once compared Jewish people to termites, has been portrayed as an inexperienced “liberal” who will “rubber stamp Pelosi’s extreme agenda.”

President Donald Trump called Ossoff a “super liberal” on Twitter and recorded a robocall to voters in the district that was used in the campaign’s final days.

“Only you can stop the super liberal Democrats and Nancy Pelosi’s group, and in particular, Jon Ossoff,” Trump said in the call. “If you don’t vote tomorrow, Ossoff will raise your taxes, destroy your health care, and flood our country with illegal immigrants.”

Trump tweeted early Wednesday morning that he was “glad to be of help” in the election….

“The myth of Jon Ossoff died tonight,” said Corey Bliss, the group’s executive director. “Despite a heavy advertising advantage and a national stream of unlimited resources, Jon Ossoff’s Hollywood-focused campaign finished no better than Hillary Clinton’s.”

Yes he will be the dim candidate. There will be another head to head election soon against the highest vote getting Republican, Karen Handel. He will likely lose that election.

As the election narrows, so will the facts. Ossof will lose in a run off, because the democrats don’t have a worthwhile message for America.

We’re not holding our breath, believe me. I propose that we build our own border wall to keep out the likes of Chelsea Handler, Rosie O’Donnell, Jane Fonda, Lenny DiCaprio, Clooney, De Niro and the rest of that vomitous, malevolent, bovine herd.

True, but if they came to Canada, we could tax their sorry asses right off of them. Plus they could get employment at the cbc which is a farce, might as well make it a ridiculous one.

With such people in it, Canada will go further down the drain than it has already gone with such fools at the helm as Justin Trudeau, Dalton McGuinty followed by super-clown Kathleen Wynne and the other incompetent moron, Notley, out in Alberta. Is there actually such a thing as a ‘leader’ in contemporary Canada? And then just consider the mayors of Toronto, Mississauga and Brampton.

“… typical Canadian values”, LOL. You, too, notice the frequent talk of “values” and probably wonder what the devil they’re talking about. True ‘values’ have a foundation of inviolable beliefs that are constant. The ‘values’ these jokers are talking about are fluffy transient thoughts or ideas that will come and go with then next gentle breeze or social fad that happens along. We cannot any longer talk about democracy or free speech being “values” in Canada because not much democracy or free speech is left. Mark Steyn moved out of the country to get away from the reach of Canada’s disgusting Human Rights Commissions; the media is simply pathetic – of which Conrad Black not long ago said “no sane person believes”. Tiny minorities dictate policy – just consider what is happening over school washrooms. Premiers like Wynne dictate policy and both ignore and condemn those who oppose them – much like McGuinty who I told behaved “like a totalitarian communist dictator.”

When will the Dems stop running J-Street Commissars, in elections? Right now the Democratic Party is in a death spiral like their extreme left-wing cousins in the British Labour Party. If there is a UK general election, in June they will get their teeth kicked in!

Also the sycophant press failed to mention that 11 Republican primary candidates, were cannibalizing the vote against this 1 candidate, was the reason the Lone Ranger received 48% of the vote.

Why did all those Repubs stay in the race and take a chance on giving the win to Ossoff? Absurd!Ossoff doesn’t even live in Georgia. I hope Repubs spend some $ and put out some good PR now. This is important.

Actually Paul Ryan PAC pumped in tons of funds for the victory. In June the runoff rhymes with…) will be very different.

Ossof lives in GA but outside the district he seeks to represent. He cannot vote in that district because he is shacked up ten miles down the roadwith his honey bun and helping put her through med school.

Unfortunately it is part of the persona of the typical American Jew to be a political kapo. Maybe it’s due to the overwhelming amount of disinformation in the MSM telling people that the liberal agenda is good. After all the anti-Semitic aspect of the left’s agenda is masked by the media. Whatever the reason, the typical American Jew is a lefty.

A voter’s three choices in any election are party, candidate, and issues. This was a candidate vote or popularity contest. The next will be the party line vote with GOP candidate Karen Handel the eventual victor. Had you ever seen a political race where the commiecrats would fight like hell to keep a woman from taking office?

Same as usual. the Democratic Liberal Left dumping millions into a candidate, making all kinds of loud boasts and the quiet voter shuts them up again. With the run off now going to happen, we’ll see more money from outsiders pour in , more outsiders come in and politic for Ossoff. And when it is over the voters that live there will speak again. then the outsiders who care nothing about Georgia will go back to their own little place and look to see who else they can politic for. For the Democratic Left it is not about local issues but simply about putting a Democrat in office. Even the locals understand that.
