Raphael Warnock and Brian Kemp

With more than half of Georgia election results counted, Republican Gov. Brian Kemp and Democratic Sen. Raphael Warnock were nearly tied -- proof Georgia voters are splitting their tickets.

And partisans were buzzing about a new website making the rounds on social media, funded by the left-leaning WelcomePAC.

Still, partisans had reason to hope of a GOP sweep. At Walker’s election party, Ralph Reed came out to tell the crowd, “we are going to be here awhile.”

“You may want to transition from alcohol to caffeine,” he said.

Still, he professed optimism.

“Huge tranches of votes are still out,” he said, predicting when they are tallied “you are going to see Herschel break right tackle and go all the way for a touchdown.”
