If Stacey Abrams can pull this off Biden should put her in charge of everything. The vaccine rollout. Writing and directing an alternate Game of Thrones ending. Running Major League Baseball, etc.

(26,415 posts)to become the most valuable woman in the nation right now. Even if Ossoff and Warnock don't both win, she still has delivered Georgia for Biden and Harris. What an awesome woman with a great future ahead. We need more like her.
and I hope all of her hard work over and above is vindicated tonight.

(26,415 posts)But when I check sites for updates, they show Loeffler and Perdue with slight edges. One site mentioned that 10s of thousands of mail in ballots were still not received due to USPS slowdown in the Atlanta area. This is deliberate voter suppression, but what will we be able to do about it if the ballots were not received in time?
I wonder if Stacy will take this on successfully.

(9,372 posts)But seeing as the DNC's major mission is to put things into place to GOTV to the max, it would certainly be a good fit. And they are not doing very well with the people who have been doing it.

Although after their season just now, Atlanta probably has a better claim.

Ask me how many playoff games we've won in the Super Bowl era.

(16,167 posts)And one of the very interesting things she said was that Kemp spent an ungodly amount of $$ on new voting machines. Part of the reason that Raffensperger had to stand firm on his decision on the votes being accurate was because of those new machines. If they intimated that there was any problem with them, then it would look bad for them!
Very cool.
I think they did make an effort to make voting more difficult for folks in blue areas though.

(90,693 posts)My indivisible group was writing postcards til our pen-holding fingers were damn near crippled.
I did three sets of 50. But that was pittance compared to one woman in our group. She sent 850 postcards to Georgia voters - and that was as of a couple of weeks ago. Probably did close to 1,000 by the time she finished.
BobTheSubgenius
(12,245 posts)That is impressive!
napi21
(45,806 posts)suggestion though. My hubby & I voted for the 2 Dems back when we first got our mail in ballots. I know how important ads are and have tried to just ignore most of the ones on TV & through the mail. Is there any way to find out which strong
Dems already voted? I think you can safely assume they voted Dem. If you could find that out, it would save you a lot of time & the Party a lot of postage. I suspect the Party should be able to get that info for you.

I'm sure the right wing will come up with some stupid scandal or other to tarnish her halo, but I don't care. She gets things done.

Stacey is a multi-faceted woman, smart, dynamic, organized, and motivated. She'll be fine doing literally anything.

(432 posts)GOTV is the most important part of politics - and something Republicans can't attack.
Elections are not won with policy or politicians. GOTV is where it's at. Democrats have a defeatist attitude when it comes to "off year" and "red state" elections. Stacey Abrams has proven it doesn't have to be that way - which is why I think she should run the Democratic Party.
