Marjorie Taylor Greene tweets panicked message to supporters following poll of GOP voters

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., the freshman congressman who has repeatedly spread Donald Trump's baseless claims of voter fraud in the 2020 presidential election, was apparently dismayed to learn that 4% of her state's electorate said they "won't even vote" in future elections due to that very "fraud."

"I recently conducted a poll on Georgia's elections and if my constituents felt their votes would count during a teletown hall," she tweeted on Monday. "Sadly, 4% said they won't even vote due to voter fraud. This is WRONG. Legal votes by Rs are just as important as stopping illegal ones."

Greene, who is up for re-election in 2022, has extensively supported Trump's efforts to overturn the election. Back in September, she declared – without evidence – that the former president "won Georgia," later calling for an official audit. In May, Greene also threw her support behind the GOP-backed election recount of Maricopa County, Arizona, which just weeks ago found that President Biden beat Trump by a wider margin than originally reported.

Wish there was a way to learn how many lives of her actual voters had been lost due to Covid.

Would love to know the extent she should be panicked.

OTH, presumably her district is so deep red that it really doesn't matter probably.


But still it would be interesting

That's what I try to use no matter the gender.
It's appropriate for any member of the House.
Well, except for people like Gohmert, Cawthorn, Boebert or Greene.
There drones, not people so they're Congresspests.

Scary similarities to our world today regarding climate change. I remember in the movie there were concubines called Furniture who were like slaves. And the hydraulic shovels they used to scoop up crowds of people in the streets. That movie gave me the creeps, still does.

I end up with terrible nightmares that trigger panic attacks when I wake from the dream.
Psychological terror is the worst kind of movie for me. I try to watch inky lighthearted or comedy TV close to bedtime now.

It is only Democrats who need to boycott elections. If they won't do it on their own, she will find a way to assist.

When a Republican doesn't vote, I feel totally owned. There is absolutely nothing they could do that would make me feel more owned. Others on DU have posted the same response, so you Republicans know we're serious.
