Sidney Powell, Lin Wood Oppose Trump, Push Georgians Not to Vote in Senate Runoff
Breitbart ^ | 2 Dec 2020 | ASHLEY OLIVER

Posted on 12/02/2020 4:07:48 PM PST by conservative98

ATLANTA — Attorneys Sidney Powell and Lin Wood held a press conference in Georgia on Wednesday, where Powell told the crowd not to vote in the upcoming Senate runoff election, a message that directly contrasts with President Donald Trump’s call for Georgians to turn out to vote for Republican Sens. Kelly Loeffler and David Perdue.

Powell, who is not affiliated with Trump’s legal team, told a crowd of supporters, “I think I would encourage all Georgians to make it known that you will not vote at all until your vote is secure, and I mean that regardless of party.”

Powell’s remarks stand in opposition to Trump, who has encouraged Georgians to vote for Loeffler and Perdue on January 5, the day of the runoff election, and has scheduled a rally for Saturday in the Peach State to campaign for the Republican incumbents.

I don’t know why this baffles people. The people of GA have been clear. They aren’t going to vote for people who aren’t fighting this existential fight for our children to live in a country with free and fair elections. They currently are sitting on the sidelines, waiting to get thwacked by the same voter fraud that got Trump.

Frankly, forcing these guys into the game by threatening to withhold votes is the SMART move. Otherwise, they get clobbered with fake Stacey Abrams ballots.

So far, Wood and Powell have gotten a lot of press attention, probably a lot in attorney fees, and absolutely no results. Now they’re directly defying Trump and encouraging a Democrat takeover of the Senate. Trump is ill-served by these two.

This is self defeatist to the point of the ruination of our
United States.

If the Democrats get the Senate, look out. Find a place to
hide.

I wouldn’t play into this idea of theirs at all.

It’s so bad, it looks like they are hoping to see a
Democrat route.

I’m not exactly enthused with these two.

The call is for no vote if Georgia keep the Dominion counting system to use for the ballot count.

“Not to vote” and “not to vote until secure” are entirely different concepts. The latter are what Powell and Wood urge, and it makes sense.

It’s quite simple. If Republican lawmakers want to be the minority party, we can shrink the GOP all the way down to zero. Then they can be oppressed by the Communists with the rest of us.

First, this threat to not vote should be used as leverage for both Senate Candidates to use their leverage to get Kemp to call session back in place. Second if that is done with fair results then VOTE. If not, then maybe better the drunk hit the bottom before they get help.

The GA Governer is corrupt as hell and the election will be stolen again. If Georgians don’t show up for the runoff you can blame one person. Brian Kemp

If Kemp doesn’t intervene and expose this fraud(and resign) the election is over.period

So, if Georgia uses the same corrupt Dominion counting system, you are all in for the vote? This is what Lin Wood is talking about.

Not true. This is disinformation. They said the 2 Senate GOP candidates need to support the call for a special session of the Georgia Assembly to take up election fraud and appoint their own slate of electors. If they won’t do that then Republicans should not vote for them.

I for one agree with them, time for republicans to get off their lazy pathetic asses!

What difference does it make? Republicans in the senate will support flooding America with cheap labor just as quickly as the Dems.

It fair to ask the two candidates to support the election fraud investigations and support trump in return for our votes. If they don’t, they are just more worthless politicians who will support the Vichy government run by the CCP

those seats are lost if the fraud stands. And I bet you money they never lost to begin with. they were frauded into a runoff. Kemp needs to be met with a lamp post.

The vote is in 4 weeks. According to these geniuses we are supposed to get everybody behind the idea of not voting for weeks and then in the last few days if they get what they want say ok - vote, or still don’t vote if they don’t.

Did any of you actually watch the press conference? Lin Wood said these two senators need to earn your vote. They should be supporting the effort to fix THIS election. If they are not willing to work to secure a Trump victory then THEY ARE NOT FIGHTING FOR AMERICA. They are in it for themselves but are to stupid to realize they are on the same sinking ship as President Trump.

No GA runoff until the machines are dumped and paper ballots with thumb prints are in supply. We can wait a year to get it right. The fraud needs to stop yesterday.

Agree. They are also saying where are the 2 candidates on this. They are office holders and should be the first ones pounding on the various levels of state govt over this issue

Otherwise if elected we see 2 mor Lindsay Graham like chameleons that only want campaign funds and never fulfill promises. The infamous hold on I’m a gonna do politician until once again safe in office
