In America’s newest swing state, where the fate of the nation rests on the outcome of two Senate runoffs, all of the candidates are relying on Donald Trump for one last turnout extravaganza. @gdebenedetti reports nym.ag/2KHeA0z
@gdebenedetti If Democrats don’t take both Georgia seats, Mitch McConnell will control the Senate and be able to strangle much of Joe Biden’s agenda in the crib. And so surrogates are flooding into the state: Kamala Harris, Mike Pence, Donald Trump Jr., and many others nym.ag/2KHeA0z
Ad spending is almost certain to surpass half a billion dollars before voting concludes on January 5. And Georgians have so far obliterated early-turnout projections nym.ag/2KHeA0z
It’s easy enough to see Georgia as the unholy culmination of the Trump years — a battle royale to deliver one final referendum on the 45th president nym.ag/2KHeA0z

Kathy Wylde, the longtime head of the Partnership for New York City, started her career as a community organizer — and has a message for today’s young socialists. @freedlander reports nym.ag/2UXpMYK
Once an activist, Wylde came to believe that true power lived not in City Hall but in penthouses on Fifth Avenue and in the private offices of the city’s biggest banks nym.ag/2UXpMYK
By the time Michael Bloomberg took office as mayor, Wylde, the onetime rabble-rouser for the working class, had become a spokeswoman for the interests of Wall Street nym.ag/2UXpMYK

Once a COVID-19 vaccine arrives, how might it be distributed? On "What Is Even Happening?" — our new video series attempting to untangle questions in the news — @MrJDWalsh spoke with vaccine expert @PeterHotez about what a rollout might look like
"I think you'll start seeing some vaccine released to selected populations by the early part of next year" if one is proven safe and effective, says @PeterHotez. A more significant release of vaccine to the general public could come in the second or third quarter of 2021.
Because some early vaccines will need to be kept frozen at -70 degrees Celsius, @PeterHotez says that "you're probably going to have to go through specially centers, and exactly how they're going to set that up and what the logistics are remain to be determined."
