Democrat candidate Jon Ossoff received less than 50 percent of the vote in the special election in Georgia’s 6th congressional district against numerous opponents, meaning a runoff election will take place soon:
And that's that- Ossoff finishes below 50%, will face runoff against Karen Handel. Updating Fulton now. #GA06 https://t.co/C0HrRw3rO1

In spite of the results, Ossoff has deemed this special election as one for the history books:
OSSOFF here in Atlanta: "We may not know the outcome for some time… but there is no doubt this already a victory for the ages.”

"We may not know the outcome tonight…but this is already a victory for the ages," @ossoff says. "So bring it on."

“Victory for the ages”? That might be a but much:
How does finishing below 50% and a run off count as a victory for the ages? Lol ????????

If by “victory” Ossoff means we’ll see more campaign involvement from Alyssa Milano and other Hollywood lefties, maybe he’s right.

Mr. @Ossoff is enthusiastic. But "victory for the ages" might be a tad hyperbolic. ?
