To request an absentee ballot, Georgians should first make sure they are registered to vote. That can easily be checked at the My Georgia Voter page. Those not registered, can fill out an online application or register by mail. The deadline to register for the runoff is Dec. 7.

(22,252 posts)Does Georgia register by party?
We do not here in Texas, therefore in a runoff, anyone who did not vote in the opposing party's primary may vote in the runoff.

(1,910 posts)So even a hand recount with Repubs standing there looking at every ballot is not good enough. Georgians should be so freakin motivated to vote against his Senate picks.

(34 posts)Republicans as well as Democrats have been the actual vote counters in every county in the United States. If I were a Republican vote counter working all hours for days, I'd be absolutely insulted (and maybe a bit enlightened?) how ridiculous it is to be observed by other Republicans who assume I may be cheating.

(61,695 posts)One county GOP monthly meeting grew from 50-60 participants to about 300. They had to move their meeting.
Loeffler is trying to paint Warnock as a radical Black man who hates the US. It's a vicious ad.

(61,695 posts)Perdue claims he was "cleared" because his investment advisors make those decisions. Yeah, sure, after he told them.
Warnock needs an ad calling out her specific lies about his associations, etc.

(13,109 posts)Its too easy to isolate and delay mail in one state like GA. Im betting that those ballots never get counted due to either mail delays or rules that eliminate ballots like signature matches etc.
I hope theres adequate messaging to counter the swindle.
