Joe Biden won the state….
The Republicans are having a political knife fight among themselves…
The Democrats are organizing….
And the Donald Trump is gonna show up this weekend and probably make things worst?
Maybe?
Just MAYBE Republicans ARE gonna hand Democrats two more US Senate seats so they can take Mitch McConnell out of the Senate Majority leader job?
And give Joe Biden even more help in undoing the mess Trump & Co. will be leaving for him…
Amen!….
Democrats Hold the Edge in Georgia Runoffs
A new SurveyUSA poll in Georgia finds Jon Ossoff (D) leading Sen. David Perdue (R) in their U.S. Senate runoff, 50% to 48%.
In the other U.S. Senate runoff, Raphael Warnock (D) leads Sen. Kelly Loeffler (R), 52% to 45%.
….
More on Trump efforts to sabotage the Georgia US Senate runoff election for his his own ego’s sake….
Gabriel Sterling, a top Georgia election official, predicted Thursday that attorneys working to overturn the state’s election results on President Donald Trump’s behalf will drive down voter turnout in runoff races early next year that will determine which party controls the Senate.
“At this point, there’s no way that it can’t,” Sterling, Georgia’s voting system implementation manager, told CNN — referring to the conspiratorial claims that pro-Trump attorneys Sidney Powell and Lin Wood have leveled this week in defense of the president’s effort to reverse the outcome of the 2020 White House race.
Sterling’s remarks echo Republican anxieties that Trump’s quixotic bid to undo his election defeat, as well as his baseless allegations of widespread voter fraud, could blunt GOP support for Georgia Sens. Kelly Loeffler and David Perdue, who are both competing in January runoffs that will decide whether Democrats are able to retake the Senate….

This is all the more reason while Biden should STOP naming cabinet choices and wait until AFTER Jan.5th…..
In addition, he should tell Schumer to wait to confirm any of his choice’s made already….
jamesb says
And guys?
Donald Trump seems to be screwing his OWN party in the US Senate?
Wonderful😆‼️
CG says
The votes will be held after Biden is sworn in of course, but hearings will start in January, etc.
And he has to have an Administration in place instead of waiting until the last minute.
You want him to nationalize the election about Biden. That would be the wrong strategy in Georgia. You should want it nationalized about Trump, which is what is currently happening.
jamesb says
CG?
The media AND TRUMP ARE nationalising it….
Biden won already….
CG says
and he shouldn’t unnecessarily delay announcing his intentions for Cabinet nominations, etc.
You seem to be saying that if the Democrats can technically gain the majority, he can make some more radical, unpopular picks. Of course, that would be a mistake.
jamesb says
CG?
Joe Biden is NOT gonna make/do radical ANYTHING….
I believe that he should STOP making cabinet level announcement as I have posted here HAS been announced by his people in order to see if Senate will be more friendly to his choices with Schumer as Majority leader….
Common sense CG…
CG says
Disagree completely.
CG says
In regards to “stopping” anything.
He has a big job ahead of him and needs to be prepared.
jamesb says
Hot Dam!
...He’s done for by Trump...
Perdue Acknowledges Biden’s Victory
Sen. David Perdue (R-GA) appeared to tacitly acknowledge President-elect Joe Biden’s victory in a video recording obtained by the Washington Post on Thursday, speaking just days before President Trump plans to travel to Georgia to campaign for Perdue and fellow senator Kelly Loeffler.
Said Perdue: “We know what this change of command at the top will mean with our foreign relations. If we can keep the majority in the Senate, we can at least be a buffer on some of the things that the Biden camp has been talking about in terms of their foreign policy.”
My Name Is Jack says
Perdue will Issue a “ clarification.”
Trump will endorse him.
