All eyes are on Georgia as voters in the Peach State will determine the majority in the U.S. Senate on January 5. Republicans have 50 seats in the Senate, while Democrats have 48 (technically 46 with two Independents who caucus with them) and likely incoming Vice President Kamala Harris to get them to 51, should Democrats win both Georgia races. Turnout is usually low in runoff elections, but mail-in voting may change the game.
Stacey Abrams, who has blamed “voter suppression” for her loss in the 2018 Georgia gubernatorial race and has launched a campaign against “voter suppression,” announced a surge in absentee ballot applications that will likely give Democrats an edge.
“BREAKING: More than 750,000 Georgians have requested their ballots for the January 5 runoff elections,” Abrams announced on Twitter Monday. She encouraged Georgians to “request yours today and let’s get it done … again.”
Abrams included a link to the website to register for an absentee ballot along with a gif of her saying, “I’ve got a secret for you… we’re going to win.”

According to the latest count, Democrat Joe Biden won 2,474,507 votes to President Donald Trump’s 2,461,837 votes in Georgia, but turnout in runoff elections is usually far below turnout in a presidential election.
Lower turnout historically favors Republicans, but the surge in mail-in voting may combat the lower turnout to some extent.

No elector shall vote in a run-off primary or special primary runoff in violation of Code Section 21-2-224 .
WHO do we have in Georgia checking those requests to make absolutely sure they are real??? We have time IF we start right now instead of waiting until the votes are counted. Does Georgia have an online system like some states that can track the voting process and shows who has requested and when the vote was received and counted? How about checking to see IF large populations of hospitals for the mentally incompetent are requesting ballots again. There has to be a way to start checking NOW!!!
On the other hand, Trump can contact his whole humongous database from his rallies and ask them to get their ballots now, too. Ask for names of conservative family members, friends, and neighbors, too, and contact them to encourage them to get their ballots as well.
We can’t win if Abrams is the only one on the battlefield -— especially with the Democrat penchant for cheating and other criminal behavior.
We DID have those capabilities but our election officials are hamstrung by the SOS and his deal with democrats. He changed our election laws without GA legislature, which is illegal.
Wood’s lawsuit filed on 11/13 is all about this, and he filed an appeal today.
Red counties need to not count until the corrupt counties have counted. Can’t give them a target to hit.
Why should Trump do that? the demoshits will just cheat and steal like they did on the 11/3 election.
Anyone who thinks this will be a fair and legal recount has a screw loose.
Already they announce what they will do and it will be met with a resounding “duh whut?” from the doofus GOP.
It isn’t even amazing anymore. It is expected.
did facebook’s rock the vote add the fake people to the voter rolls?
OK, who here on this thread lives in Georgia, and can they please explain why the state cannot demand in person voting for the run-off, especially with all the fraud that comes from mail-in voting!!!???
WTH!?
We are all California now. Do you really think CA is never close? I don’t. They have perfected this scam. No point in voting.
Means nothing to the Abrams herd. If 750,000 ballots are sent out, 800,00 or more will be entered into the counts, hundreds of thousands of which won’t even have a fold line from being folded and sent then marked and returned in the envelope provided. It worked for the treasonous bastards once, they have nothing stopping them from doing it again.
I don’t know because I don’t do Fakebook:)
I have been saying this for months, got ridiculed for it (stealing the election), and finally (after almost 20 years here) got suspended for a week. In my mind, most here couldn't believe or refused to believe the DEMs could steal this election.
Even New York has far better verifications and process in place for mail in balloting.
The Republican leaders in Georgia are a bunch of corrupt SOBs who are happy to sell out.
The Fox News Decision Desk can now project the Democrats have won both seats in the January 5th 2021 Georgia Senate runoff, making Chuck Schumer Senate Majority leader....
BS!
Woosh ... Bonggggg ....
