They're playing "Sweet Little Lies" by Fleetwood Mac at the Georgia GOP election party.
I've made the decision to watch the live coverage of the Georgia Senate Runoff elections on @newsmax

Let's see how long before I have to change the channel.
@JodyHice is explaining how this election is gonna be totally legit this time, unlike the general election. Both Democrats are currently ahead. I'm looking forward to the meltdown later tonight.
Rep. Mo Brooks from Alabama is now claiming the votes were counted correctly, but the votes were illegal? #GASen
Why are dodgy supplements always advertised on right-wing media?
Republicans have a bit of a turnout issue. They're getting the right percentage of the vote, but they're not getting the right number of votes. WTF does that even mean? #newsmax
"@LLinWood didn't do anybody any favors." #newsmax

lol
Just got an ad for David Perdue on Newsmax. The polls are already closed and I'm not in Georgia.
The production quality of the channel is... strange. It's like a high school received a huge grant for television production equipment, but still let the students run the control room.
Republicans are under performing, but Newsmax is hopeful.

(Warnock is winning with almost 54% of the vote)
Newsmax just admitted that if Democrats take the Senate, people will get their $2000 checks, yet they're still confused as to why Republicans aren't doing well.
"Beta-male milk toast knockoff Justin Trudeau" is an actual thing that someone on Newsmax said when referring to Ossoff. People actually take this channel seriously?
St. Jude is begging for money on Newsmax. I think #MedicareForAll would be a better idea.
Okay.. So I just got an ad claiming that the stock market is going to crash when Biden takes office. The website just goes to... another scary video.

But at least they admitted that Biden won.
If Republicans win a county called "Cherokee" they might be able to win. #NewsMaxLogic 🤣
I think there are more commercials than content on Newsmax. I'm talking specifically about airtime. Their content is pretty worthless when they're not peddling scams
"Stacy Abrams has been working the ground in Georgia for the past two years..." I wonder what happened in Georgia two years ago? 🤔
And there he is! The My Pillow Guy!!! #Newsmax
Newsmax doesn't have the budget for their own graphics, so they're literally just using the @nytimes website.
Well, it appears that Sandals just opened a new resort... during a pandemic. Cool.
Hey @nytimes... Did you give @newsmax permission to use your website without attribution?
Newsmax is now peddling conspiracy theories on drop boxes.
Alright.. got myself some whiskey. What did I miss?
Is there some specific filter they put on right wing talk radio that makes everyone sound like @DennisPrager?
When Newsmax talks about large Republican counties.. are they counting people, or just land area?
"Some election official puts in the wrong computer cartridge"

What year do they think it is? Do they think that election machines use the same technology as a Commodore 64?
Okay.. Did some quick searches in the manuals for these machines. Some of them take toner cartridges. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
To be clear. Electronic voting is a bad idea. But I don't think using the wrong cartridges is the reason.
Newsmax is still in the "denial" stage. I'm going to watch some @NewsHour to let my brain recover a bit.
And I'm back to rotting my brain with Newsmax. The tone has definitely changed since I left them. "How could Democrats ever win in Georgia?"
And here we are with the Reagan propaganda! Amazing.
Newsmax's "partner" is calling the race too close to call.

@NateSilver538's current prediction:
And now they're bringing up problems with signature matching. Only 3 hours ago, they were talking about how much more secure this election was going to be than the general election.
"I don't think people realize what they've done"

So, now we're insulting the intelligence of Georgia voters? Keep it classy Newsmax!
And they're just giving up and did a really a rough transition to some sort of weird Israel propaganda show.
Well, we saw about 20 seconds of that, and now they're replaying some earlier live broadcast. I think trained monkeys would do a better job in the control room. #Newsmax
