Several sources are giving Warnock (Dem) over Kelly Loeffler (GOP). Warnock has already claimed victory.
The other is still too close to call, but the momentum is with Ossoff (Dem), who is ahead by 9.5k votes and .....
If the Dems win both, there will be a split 50 - 50 senate, with the dems have the deciding vote. Most important, Mitch McConnell will lose his ability to stifle legislation.

Ossoff's lead continues to increase as the final absentee/postal ballots are being counted:

Yeppers. A dems result is important not so much for the win or even the senate control...
It's an important message to the Republicans to not endorse some unhinged hater with a severe case of epistemic irrationality if you want to be taken seriously by more people than just your little army of sycophants.
Bye bye Trump... the world just couldn't believe you... much less afford you

Turnout was down 15% in Trump country of northwest Georgia apparently.
Gop made a few mistakes. The $2000 payments they denied the American people was the main one. Coming out against Trump wasn't exactly bright just before an election.
Trump telling everyone "the votes rigged" was another factor along with the sht fight with Republicans. Obviously Trumps die hard fans are not down with mainstream gop.

I think Trump intends to wait until all the "so called" votes are counted by the "so called" counters.
That way he can accurately gauge exactly how many votes he has to "find" to gain the Rightful Senate victory in Georgia.
Really. Does anyone believe Trump and these candidates are going to accept any non GOP result? They will just go straight into a whole new campaign about fraudulent votes and so on.
Let's see...

Trump will have no chance of swaying his Georgian Republican leaders that the Runoff election was other than a model of excellence, as they will have left no stone unturned to ensure the result was beyond doubt.I think Trump intends to wait until all the "so called" votes are counted by the "so called" counters.

Here's the latest update:
As you can see the trend of absentee/postal vote counts continues to favour the Democrats. A total maximum of 17,000 overseas votes stands to be counted by Friday, although significantly fewer ballots are expected to be returned.
At this stage the only possible surprise is if there is a large number of outstanding ballots from Republican strongholds, and this would be atypical.

Remaining votes to be counted are mainly democrat areas, will be interesting how the GOP will react to the loss.

Ossoff needs a bigger margin than at present to prevent a recount, although recounts usually sway across the odd hundreds, so a lead of +20000 will never be clawed back.

Trumps crowd he whipped up is firing bullets and pipe bombs at Washington DC. Small group have broken through capital fence.
Pence forced to delay count and go into safety.
Mitchell McConnell strongest words against Trump yet.
Stock market rising strongly.
Biden chooses a moderate Attorney General which Republicans are happy with.
All happening folks. Historic events.

Trump still refuses to accept the results of the election. He still declares he was robbed and yet cannot produce any evidence to support this lie that will stand a shred of investigation.
He has persuaded millions of people and hundreds of Republician politicians to believe that lie.
He has led his supporters down Pennsylvania Avenue and encouraged them to storm Congress to stop the vote.
How can he be allowed to continue as President with the power that entails for another day ? When will Pence, McConnell, Pelosi and Schumer put him on gardening leave or perhaps protective custody and allow VP Pence to complete the last two weeks of this administration and ensure an orderly transfer of power ?
Trump knows no limits.

Similar to the no limits that the Democrats (and MSM) unleashed on Trump for the last four years, starting before he was even inaugurated.

At some stage soon, McConnell, Pence, Schumer, Pelosi and the Cabinet will need to remove Trump from office and ensure the last 13 days of this Presidency do not degenerate into open warfare. Sate Governors are already calling for this action.
Trump clearly cannot accept the reality of his loss. His use of the Presidential office to fire up millions of people to overthrow the Congress to keep him in power is seditious. Twitter and other media now recognise that Trump cannot be trusted to act in the interest of the US only his own. His repeated lies on the conduct of the election and exhortations to his base to continue the fight are criminal or insane. Either way he is until for office.

Two state governors call from Donald Trump to be removed from office
One is Democratic Governor of Illinois JB Pritzker, who said that "two weeks is too long for Donald Trump to remain in office".
The other comes from Republican Governor of Vermont Phil Scott who said "the fabric of our democracy and the principles of our republic are under attack by the President".

Trump agrees to 'orderly transition' after Pence declares Biden's election win
Donald Trump agrees to an "orderly transition" of power on January 20, after the US Congress confirmed Joe Biden's electoral college win. It comes after an extraordinary day in US politics on which a mob of Trump supporters stormed the US Capitol in an attempt to overturn the election.

The Live broadcast from the US Capitol is amazing. (See on ABC News 24)
From both sides of the house there is realisation and acknowledgment of just how dangerous the situation Trump has created with his repeated lies on the results of the election and incessant demands to have these results overthrown.

Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell called the invasion a “failed insurrection” and said, “we will not bow to lawlessness or intimidation.”

The protests were ”mostly peaceful" though.
Notwithstanding the protesters virtue or lack thereof, it is interesting how differently the MSM is reporting it, compared to the protests earlier in the year.
