“Senators, you have not condemned this language or these actions ... I’m talking about Sen. David Perdue and Sen. Kelly Loeffler, two people whom I still support. But they need to step up.”
The two Republicans have yet to respond. #gapol#gasen
.@sendavidperdue spokeswoman @CaseyBlackTN: “Senator Perdue condemns violence of any kind, against anybody. Period. We won’t apologize for addressing the obvious issues with the way our state conducts its elections.” #gapol#gasen
A crowd of hundreds is gathered at an Alpharetta park to hear from Sidney Powell, the attorney disavowed by the Trump campaign, and others push his false narrative of a “stolen” election.
Listen to that roar of applause as Powell is introduced ...
Lin Wood is invoking MLK’s legacy and urging Trump supporters to hound @GovKemp until he orders a special session to overturn Biden’s victory. Chants of “LOCK HIM UP” follow. #gapol
Former rivals Doug Collins and Kelly Loeffler hit the campaign trail together for the first time this morning at a gun range in north Georgia. He endorsed her on election night, putting an end to a bitter yearlong Republican-on-Republican feud between the two. #gapol#gasen
Collins opens with a swipe at @ReverendWarnock: “There is no such thing as a pro-choice pastor. What you have is a lie from the bed of Hell. It is time to send it back to Ebenezer Baptist Church.” #gapol#gasen
He closes by predicting “Republicans rising up again from the ashes” in the runoffs.
“This was not a defeat — this was a victory. Because come January 5, the nation and the world is gonna see Georgia stand up” and elect Perdue & Loeffler. #gapol#gasen
Happy Thanksgiving. Misspelling “district” twice right out the gate,
Trump’s ex-lawyer Sidney Powell filed a lawsuit alleging that as many as 96,000 votes were illegally counted in Georgia without showing substantiated evidence of her claims. #gapolbloomberg.com/news/articles/…
It claims w/o evidence “old-fashioned ballot-stuffing” through computer software and “egregious” conduct in five of the most GOP counties in Georgia, but never bothers to specify what allegedly happened in each. #gapol
It was brought on behalf of five Georgia Republicans who would have been electors had Trump won, and two party officials: Jason Shepherd of the Cobb GOP and B.J. Van Gundy, assistant secretary of the state party. #gapol
Echoing Trump, @sendavidperdue is asking for the impossible - a recount “in which signatures on absentee ballot envelopes are properly matched and verified to their signature on the registration.” #gapol
County election officials verify signatures when they receive absentee ballots, but after that point, it’s impossible to match ballots back to voters due to ballot secrecy protections guaranteed by the Georgia Constitution. #gapol#gasen
Now the @GaRepublicans leadership gets in on the action, with a letter making the same impossible demand — “an immediate audit of the absentee ballots cast in the 2020 General Election. This audit must include verification of signature match.” #gapol
Meanwhile, the Pence caravan went the wrong direction on 285 - east instead of west - and is now back in the right direction trying to ease its way through gridlocked traffic to Dobbins Air Reserve Base. #gapol
We are moving again, but here’s a glimpse of the gridlock from the great @AlyssaNo_L#gapol
