State Sen. Clint Dixon is now presenting his second bill, which proposes to add 5 seats to the Gwinnett County Commission on the grounds of population growth in the last census. #gapol

Bill here: legis.ga.gov/legislation/60… Democratic State Sen. Emanuel Jones is protesting the fact that no maps of the proposed new districts have been included in his packet.

"I don't know what I'm being asked to vote on"

He made the same protest about no maps being included in the the BOE bill.

A Republican bill to switch the Democrat-controlled Gwinnett County BOE to nonpartisan is in committee.

The Gwinnett BOE Chair says they were not consulted before the bill was dropped.

Gwinnett Democrats say they also were not consulted.

Watch: legis.ga.gov/schedule/senat… #gapol The sponsor, Sen. Clint Dixon, says there's an urgent need to pass the bill because the county needs time before a May election.

This is also the argument many state election officials have made to push back the May primary, to little avail:

Congressman @JodyHice is opening a rally headlined by @mtgreenee and @mattgaetz in Dalton GA right now.

Hice is running for Secretary of State.

Some in the crowd chant “lock him up” about current SOS Brad Ratffensperger.

#gapol Worth noting, per @ajconwashington, that Hice once rescinded his endorsement of Congresswoman Greene.

And now for an actual debate.

@KLoeffler and @ReverendWarnock are facing off one-on-one for the first time starting now.

Watch the @atlpressclub debate here: gpb.org/events/news/20… #gapol Was the election rigged, Loeffler is asked?

"We have to make sure Georgians trust this process," she says, while in effect dodging the question.

The runoff debates for #gasen are starting off with Jon @ossoff, debating an empty podium because @Perduesenate has declined to participate.

Loeffler and Warnock face off at 7pm.

@LisaRayam and @bluestein are asking the questions. Watch here:

#gapol gpb.org/events/news/20… @ossoff @Perduesenate @LisaRayam @bluestein Per the normal debate rules, Ossoff is allowed to ask Perdue a question. Because Perdue is not here, Ossoff will answer his own question.

His Q: Why he continues to oppose $1200 stimulus checks for the American people in this moment of crisis?
