Mischief-Making Progressive PAC Urges GOP Boycott of Georgia Runoffs in New Ads

Progressive PAC Really American is paying for billboards to go up in parts of Georgia urging Trump voters to boycott the upcoming Senate runoff elections, claiming Senators Kelly Loeffler and David Perdue “didn’t deliver” for the president.

The PAC has raised $593,000 for the billboards and hopes to put up 50 in rural counties, with 12 already up so far, the group told the Associated Press. The messaging mirrors calls by pro-Trump lawyers Lin Wood and Sidney Powell to boycott the runoffs, alleging that the elections are “rigged” and that Loeffler and Perdue have not done enough to challenge the state’s outcome.

Joe Biden was declared the winner of Georgia’s electoral college votes, a result confirmed in a statewide recount showing that the Democratic candidate beat Trump by less than 13,000 votes.

“Perdue/Loeffler didn’t deliver for Trump, DON’T deliver for them,” Really American’s billboards read.

I'm glad someone is finally giving the GOP some of their own medicine.

They've been playing dirty pool and financing 3rd party candidates for years. Trump and his minions are attempting a coup.

The control of the Senate must be handed over to sane hands. For the sake of our nation.

So, I approve this action.
