"SNIP.....

Just because you weren’t registered for the general election doesn’t mean you can’t vote in the U.S. Senate runoffs in Georgia.

Voters did not have to vote, or even be registered to vote, in the Nov. 3 election to take part in the federal runoff elections on Jan. 5. You did have to be already registered in order to vote in state or local runoff elections.

Georgia has two U.S. Senate seats up for grabs in January that could determine the balance of power in the Senate.

...

Incumbent David Perdue is facing off against Jon Ossoff. Perdue had just under 50% of the vote in the general election, with Libertarian Shane Hazel’s 2.3% forcing the runoff between the two candidates.

.....SNIP"


Everyone call all your friends in Georgia who are Democrats and get them involved in their neighbourhoods to get the vote out.
