Republicans like @TLBsStory who are speaking out to defend the integrity of our elections are the heroes of the moment. 1/
I appreciate TN Republican @sectrehargett for being a voice of reason and cautioning that we should not be alarmed if it takes time to determine a winner. 2/
As @sectrehargett, the system has bipartisan protections designed to keep elections fair. 3/

BREAKING: @FOXNashville retracts report accusing @JohnCooper4Nash of a cover-up in reporting #COVID19 numbers for Nashville bars. "We don't have evidence of a cover-up and apologize for the error." This after @DonaldJTrumpJr and @TuckerCarlson made the story go viral.

For those breathlessly tweeting at me about another reporter's "bombshell" and the "disturbing" COVID-19 emails from Mayor Cooper, the emails do NOT say what the reporter implied. There is nothing about "how to keep it from the public." 1/
Take, for example, the reporter's gasping at this exchange: “This isn’t going to be publicly released, right? Just info for Mayor’s Office?"
