U.S. House Predictions- Colorado- Delaware , Plus Georgia Special Election

 36 Days Until Election Day

Before I move on to the normally scheduled program, I have just found out that tomorrow is the first round of an odd and money wasting special election in Georgia to fill a Congressional seat. I always "predict" every House race, so I cannot forget about this one. If someone captures a majority tomorrow, they are elected to Congress, but that is unlikely to happen. Most likely, it will go to a December runoff, and the winner of that will be a Member of Congress for basically a few days, as a completely different candidate is going to win the regularly scheduled vote in November, but anyways....
