@SpectrumNewsGA @FmrRepMTG GEORGIA SPECIAL ELECTION:

In race to replace @FmrRepMTG, the #Democrat is in the lead, with 46% of the vote in.

The **same** Democrat lost to MTG in 2024 by 30 points!

If nobody gets 50% - we head to a runoff.

From “Andrew Cuomo is a snake and a liar” to courtside at the @nyknicks.

The mother of male cheerleader Louie Conn tells Spectrum News he told her “maybe I need to quit.” (He quit in HS when he was bullied for the same reasons) Thankfully, she says, this time he didn’t.

To the haters she says: “I wanted to fight against every negative comment I saw”
