The Democratic #gasen ticket has arrived in Atlanta. #gapol
.@ReverendWarnock after the Electoral College vote: “The four most powerful words in a democracy are: ‘The people have spoken’ ...Politicians are playing games, as if this is their democracy. They’re going to find out come Jan 5 that this is the people’s democracy.” #gasen#gapol
.@ossoff: “David Perdue hasn’t held a single public town hall meeting in six years. David Perdue is too much of a coward to debate me. David, if you're watching — I'm ready for you. I'm still ready.” #gapol#gasen

.@JoeBiden: "Georgia wasn't going to be bullied. Georgia wasn't going to be silenced. Georgia wasn't going to stand by and let Donald Trump or the state of Texas - or anyone else - come here and toss out your votes." #gapol#gasen
.@staceyabrams: “Well, we’ve got to do it again, guys ... While 161,000 Georgians face eviction this year if we don't get relief, David Perdue and Kelly Loeffler are writing strongly worded letters to a baseball team.” #gapol#gasen
Atlanta Mayor @KeishaBottoms: “Because you dared to use the power of your vote, the moral arc of this country now bends toward a more just America.” #gapol
New: Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger says the state will conduct a limited signature match audit in Cobb County, with the results to be released in two weeks. #gapol

I headed upstairs, where Georgia’s 16 Democratic electors aren’t behind closed doors, but assembled in the state Senate ready to cast their votes for Joe Biden. #gapol
Here’s what a GOP elector told me for a story that ran on the @ajc front page today: #gapol
The event coincides with the first week of early voting in the twin contests – and comes a day after presidential electors in Georgia and other states formally cast their votes to make Biden the next president. #gapol#gasenajc.com/politics/polit…
Trump’s campaign responds: “Joe Biden’s trip to Georgia next week proves that Democrats are taking the Senate runoff elections seriously and so should Republicans.” #gapol
The GOP infighting over Georgia’s election has now spread to Texas, where an AG facing a federal probe is suing Republican state officials in Georgia seeking to overturn the election for Trump. #gapol
