Georgia Senate Runoffs: Breaking Down November, Looking to January By J. Miles Coleman and Niles Francis
KEY POINTS FROM THIS ARTICLE
— In a highly unusual situation, both of Georgia’s Senate seats will be on the ballot next month — one seat was already scheduled to be elected, while the other is a special election.
— As January’s result will decide control of the Senate, both sides are invested in Georgia’s outcome.
— In the regular election, Democrat Jon Ossoff made some gains in the suburbs since he was last on the ballot, but to beat Sen. David Perdue (R-GA), he’ll likely have to do even better.
— The battle for the state’s other seat is a bitter contest between appointed incumbent Kelly Loeffler (R-GA) and Rev. Raphael Warnock, a Democrat and a preacher.
— Though it would add an extra layer of chaos to the outcome, history — and data from November — seems to point away from a split outcome.

Why Didn't the Xenophobe in Chief Close the Borders? By Ted Rall
The COVID-19 pandemic was a crisis tailor-made for a xenophobe like Donald Trump. The coronavirus provided an ideal opportunity to turn the president's biggest liability -- the nativist bigotry that went so far as to lock children in cages and then lose hundreds of their parents, which elicited disgust even among some of his supporters -- into a strength in early 2020. Trump's explicable failure to knock this easy pitch out of the ballpark is my biggest explanation for why he lost the election to a singularly lackluster opponent.
