ATLANTA — The Never Trump Lincoln Project released an ad on Wednesday urging voters to give the Senate majority to Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) by voting for Georgia Senate Democrats Raphael Warnock and Jon Ossoff.
The Lincoln Project released the ad, titled “On the Ballot,” which asks Georgia voters to consider voting against Sens. Kelly Loeffler (R-GA) and David Perdue (R-GA).
The Never Trump organization claimed in its press release that voting for Warnock and Ossoff would help mitigate the coronavirus outbreak.
“Votes for Reverend Raphael Warnock and Jon Ossoff ensure America can get Covid-19 under control and get people back to work and kids back to school as quickly and safely as possible,” the press release read.
The ad will air in major Georgia markets such as Albany and Augusta.
Reed Galen, a cofounder of the Lincoln Project, said in a statement on Wednesday:
Georgians have a unique opportunity to remind Americans just how little Republicans worry about anything other than their own prospects — political, personal, and financial. Kelly Loeffler and David Perdue obeying Mitch McConnell’s agenda mean Americans withstanding another four years of lying, distrust, and failed leadership with him in power.
The Lincoln Project has worked for months to oust Republican senators and give Democrats control of the Senate majority.
Never Trump Republicans believed that preventing a second term for President Donald Trump was insufficient and that Senate Republicans must also pay the price of backing the 45th president.
The Lincoln Project launched ahead of the 2020 elections six-figure ad buys against Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY), Sens. Joni Ernst (R-IA), Thom Tillis (R-NC), and Martha McSally (R-AZ).
Steve Schmidt, who works for the Never Trump Lincoln Project, said in July, “The analogy would be in the same way that fire

I dunno partner...I dunno. Lots of stuff doesn’t make any sense.
You have folks like Leo Terrell, Alan Dershowitz and Johnathon Turley, Geraldo Rivera which were all pretty recently die hard democrats yet coming out in defense of DJT because of the attacks he’z endured for four years and what appears to be a coup.
We shall see.
If I lived in GA, I would vote in the runoff for the Reps despite having no confidence in the system. That said, the reality is that voters will not turn out for Perdue/Loeffler in the same numbers as for Trump. The failure of Kemp and his SOS to support Trump in his battle against election fraud in GA will depress the vote further.
The national GOPe have been MIA. They seem to be fine with President Biden who stole the election. Now they expect Trump voters in GA to turn their attention to the runoff and forget about Trump’s battle to win re-election. The first priority should be Trump. The GOPe doesn’t get it. The GOP is Trump’s party.

Good to hear, and you are right - turnout will be really tough considering what’s going on with Trump’s re-election. But still, by convincing half of the Republican voters to boycott the election, you’re playing with fire. In fact, even if the candidate did what he’s demanding, a good percentage on our side would never even know...or are so mad now, they won’t believe him.
