Look before you tweet. This is the lesson that Steve Handel, husband of Sixth District congressional candidate Karen Handel, just learned the hard way. From CNN:

"Like many of us, he (Steve) made a mistake and retweeted something he didn't pay a lot of attention to, thinking it was just an absentee vote message. It clearly was not appropriate and has been deleted," a campaign spokesperson said.

Democrat Jon Ossoff on Wednesday declined to make hay out of it, saying that he largely avoids Twitter.

"Sometimes, social media can be dangerous," he said.
