The Democratic duo is back on the campaign trail in Georgia #gapol #gasen
“Of course I'm always glad to be with my brother, Senator Jon @ossoff. Thank you for your partnership,” says Warnock about hitting the road with his fellow Democrat again. #gapol #gasen
This next stop should be interesting … “just a drizzle,” quips one optimistic Warnock aide amid the blinding rain. #gapol #gasen
The warmup act, in which I wisely decide against trying to sing along #gasen

The Jolt: Stacey Abrams: ‘If Black men vote for me, I’ll win Georgia.’ #gapol #gasen ajc.com/politics/polit…
More jolt: “We know that this is about democracy,” says Abrams. “If we do not have a governor in 2022 elected and taking office in ‘23, our 270 electoral votes across the country are going to be in jeopardy. Georgia is going to be a pivot point.” #gapol ajc.com/politics/polit…
More jolt: Gov. Kemp is sticking to what his aides believe is a powerful message with a new 30-second spot this morning that highlights the 107 sheriffs who back his reelection. Abrams has twice had to rebut his public safety ads with her own spots. #gapol ajc.com/politics/polit…

In Macon, a few hundred business executives, community leaders and elected officials are gathering for an annual @GAChamber luncheon that’s designed to focus on bipartisanship in a polarizing time. #gapol
Happening now: Republican Rep. Buddy Carter is touting the benefits of a federal bipartisan infrastructure measure that he voted against. (At the time, he said more funding should be devoted to boosting ports, broadband and not a “disguise” for liberal policies.) #gapol
Republican pollster @FrankLuntz starts his speech by entering the crowd, singling out Democratic Rep. Sanford Bishop — and praising him as one of the most remarkable members of the congressional delegation. #gapol

A federal judge ruled Friday that statewide elections for the Georgia Public Service Commission discriminate against Black voters, blocking state officials from holding a November election for two seats that were set to be on the ballot. #gapol

“While delaying elections for Districts 2 and 3 until a later date will regrettably cause disruption to the candidates currently running for those offices, the court does not find that such disruption outweighs the important VRA interests that are implicated,” the judge wrote.
Former NAACP state President @iMajorWish, a plaintiff in the suit:
“This determination assures us that our current claims of voter suppression are legitimate and that Black voters have for generations been prevented from full access to democracy." #gapol ajc.com/politics/feder…

"The people need to see the differences between Sen. Warnock and Herschel Walker.” Accused of cowardice, Walker says he’ll participate in a Senate debate on Oct. 14 in Savannah -- though we have scant details on the proposed event #gapol #gasen ajc.com/politics/polit…
Warnock aide Quentin Fulks noted the Democrat already accepted three debates.
“Nothing has changed. Reverend Warnock remains committed to debating Herschel Walker and giving Georgians three opportunities to see the clear choice about who is ready to represent Georgia.” #gasen
Walker's campaign says their proposed event would be hosted by WSAV, the Savannah Nexstar affiliate. Warnock had agreed to a WTOC debate in Savannah. #gapol #gasen ajc.com/politics/polit…

The scope of the Fulton County grand jury probe into Trump’s attempt to overturn the 2020 election came into clearer focus as court filings indicate that at least a dozen phony Georgia GOP electors have been told they could face criminal charges. #gapol
ajc.com/politics/break…
Here's the full motion, chock full of details about the widening investigation of the phony electors. #gapol documentcloud.org/documents/2208…
Last week, we reported that GOP chair David Shafer and Burt Jones -- the GOP nominee for LG -- both received target letters. Now we know that 10 other fake electors did, as well. No immediate word on the remaining four electors ... #gapol
