Hollywood went into full meltdown mode Tuesday night after Republican Karen Handel was announced the winner of the special election in Georgia’s Sixth Congressional District.
Celebrities like Alyssa Milano, Samuel L. Jackson and Chelsea Handler spent time and money to help Democrat Jon Ossoff defeat Handel. He fell short, with 48 percent to Handel’s 52 percent. It was like November 2016 all over again. (RELATED: Celebrities Have Meltdown Over ‘Nightmare’ Confirmation Of Jeff Sessions)

A very strong effort by Jon @Ossoff in #GA06 today. #TeamOssoff and all the voters and activists there should be proud. Onward to 2018.

Karen Handel is homophobic. She’s a terrible person, a slowly-but-surely dying symbol of the past. https://t.co/hUNCUz5BpT
