Republican Wins In Georgia! Trump Wins In Georgia!!
Republican Karen Handel Defeats Democrat Jon Ossoff in Georgia Special ElectionSANDY SPRINGS, Georgia — Republican Karen Handel has won the special congressional election in Georgia, fending off a strong challenge from Democrat Jon Ossoff in the heavily Republican House district, according to a projection by NBC News.
Handel’s victory in the closely fought contest, which drew national interest and was the most expensive House race ever at over $50 million spent, comes as good news for President Donald Trump. Democrats had promoted the contest as a referendum on the president.
With over 80 percent of the vote counted, Handel lead Ossoff 52 percent to 48 percent in a race that many expected to be much closer. Handel had 116,182 votes to Ossoff's 105,170 ballots.
"Democrats from coast to coast threw everything they had at this race, and Karen would not be defeated," said House Speaker Paul Ryan.
Democrats will call the outcome a moral victory, and note they've exceeded expectations in every special election this year. But it doesn’t change the fact that they’re 0-4 for congressional races, even after spending millions of dollars and and whipping up a hyper-motivated base.
Rarely, if ever, has a single congressional race attracted this much attention or been freighted with so much meaning.

The Story Of Sergeant Stubby, The Hero Dog Of WWI
Sergeant Stubby (1916 or 1917 – March 16, 1926) was a dog who was the official mascot of the 102nd Infantry Regiment (United States), assigned to the 26th (Yankee) Division. He served for 18 months and participated in seventeen battles on the Western Front. He saved his regiment from surprise mustard gas attacks, found and comforted the wounded, and once caught a German soldier by the seat of his pants, holding him there until American soldiers found him. Back home, his exploits were front page news in major newspapers.[2][3][4]
Stubby has been called the most decorated war dog of World War I and the only dog to be nominated for rank and then promoted to sergeant through combat,[5] a claim having no official documentary evidence, but recognized in connection with an exhibition at the Smithsonian Institution.[5][2][3]
Sgt. Stubby is the subject of an upcoming animated film, scheduled for release in April 2018.
