Georgia Senate runoff races have national implications!
National Right to Life ^ | Nov 21 2020 | Karen Cross, Political Director

While we wait for final vote counts in the race for President and several House races too close to call, it’s clear that the Senate will be a crucial firewall for the pro-life movement to block the pro-abortion agenda that would be pushed by Speaker Nancy Pelosi and House Democrats and promoted by Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, if this pro-abortion duo wins the election.

As it stands, Republicans will hold 50 seats to the Democrats’ 48. These numbers underscore the critical importance of the two Georgia Senate runoff elections.

Under Georgia law, if a single candidate does not secure 50% plus one vote, the contest goes to a runoff with just the top two finishers, regardless of party, competing. This affected both Georgia Senate races.

Pro-life Republican senators David Perdue and Kelly Loeffler are fighting to hold their seats in the runoff to be held on January 5, 2021. They face pro-abortion challengers in Democrats Jon Ossoff and Raphael Warnock, respectively.

While Perdue and Loeffler hold 100% pro-life voting records, Ossoff and Warnock support a policy of abortion on demand, which would allow abortion for any reason. Both Democrats support taxpayer funding of abortion and are backed by Planned Parenthood, the nation’s largest abortion provider.

These Senate races have national implications.

They will determine whether pro-life Senator Mitch McConnell remains Senate Majority Leader and in a position to block the House Democrats’ radical pro-abortion agenda of abortion without limits and taxpayer funding of abortion. If Democrats win both runoffs, each party will have 50 senators.

Were Biden to win the presidency, the deciding tie-breaker vote would be cast by Vice President Kamala Harris, in her role as President of the Senate.

If the latter were to occur, it is likely that the Democrats, in charge of both chambers of Congress plus the executive branch, would pursue an extreme agenda that could include repealing the Hyde Amendment, transforming the judiciary into a pro-abortion super-Legislature, and passing legislation to codify Roe v. Wade, or, in other words, make abortion without limits the law of the land and invalidate state pro-life laws. Senate Democrats would also be in a position to approve virtually any Supreme Court pick selected by a President Joe Biden were a vacancy to occur.

The last day to register to vote in the January 5th runoff is December 7th. If you know someone who will turn 18 by January 5th, they can register to vote. https://georgia.gov/vote-2020-runoff-elections. Their first vote can help shape history!!

The U.S. Senate may be our last line of defense against the extreme pro-abortion agenda of the Democrats. We must return David Perdue and Kelly Loeffler to the U.S. Senate to maintain pro-life control.

The lives of countless unborn children depend on our victories in these races!

Unfortunately, although this is true, unless the Georgia Senate run-offs are run more prudently - signature matching on mail-in ballots, getting to the bottom of the Dominion vote-switching etc., I can guarantee you the Democrats will win those seats.

If we lose just one of these seats we are totally screwed. for at least 4 years. And with the Rep penchant for not undoing bs laws passed by Dems, it will be forever.

Stacey Abrams is bragging about 600,000 absentee ballots for the run off. Loeffler and Perdue are so screwed. Even my best friend and I who vowed no more lesser of two weasels are going to slog to the polls to try to save them.

In my opinion this is as important as the presidential election. Why is that the case (and why is it not hyperbole)? Because, 1) if Trump remains as president and the Democrats gain control of the Senate, they can impeach him (successfully this time); and 2) if Biden snags the presidency, and the Dems gain control of the Senate, there is almost nothing they cannot pass unless by some miracle some Democrat senators did the right thing. A bet I would not be willing to take.

Republicans have to absolutely win the Senate. Absolutely.

Did The GOP ever pull the funding for PP when they had majorities in The House and Senate?

Worse than that. If the Democrats get 50 Senate seats with Harris as the tie-breaker, they’ll get rid of another filibuster and stack the Supreme Court.

They’ll pass many laws against our constitutional rights and freedoms and use more funded programs to the states to act on those new laws. The population will be shocked at the gun control measures, violations against free speech, unprecedentedly monstrous abortion programs, the displacements of Americans from jobs by the tens of millions (including local government jobs),...

Puerto Rico and Washington D.C. will be new states for the purpose of providing more Democrat electoral votes.

It will be all over.

"We dont control anything with voting here in georgia.5 million votes this time around in georgia and its within 12,000 votes?Do you really believe that?"

Four more years' worth of illegitimate kids reached voting age since 2016, and their mothers and grandmothers have only become more enraged about Hillary losing. Then came Kamala: their star of meanness in the Kavanaugh hearings.

It's like football. Either we get out the vote to take and hold every inch we can get from now on, or we're done. The Democrats have been killing us with incrementalism for generations, and too many on our side still haven't caught on.

And as for the politicians, many among us should find the self-discipline to pay more attention to what politicians do and less attention to what they say and who they pretend to like (see Republican Foghorn Leghorn and Democrat Miss Prissy). Politicians are paid to be conniving.

Don’t say that. The sheep still believe in their elections and are ready to “vote, vote vote. “

Stacy is one thing but I just went to the Cobb county Republican HQ to get Loeffler and Perdue yards signs and they told me they ran out of the few they had last week and no one from either campaign can tell them when they can expect more.

The republicans in this county don’t give a shit....so why should I.

Slam me if you want I don’t give a crap.

I don’t think yard signs have much to do with what is going to happen. The same fraud that was used on Nov 3rd will be trotted back out on Jan 5th. i.e. software vote changing in the machines and tens of thousands of falsely manufactured absentee ballots. Deja vu all over again.
