Georgia Senate Runnoff observations

I live in South Carolina and our news feed all comes from Georgia. We are close to Savannah.

The ads on TV are contrasted by light and dark. The two republicans in the contest are all negative all the time. Not once do you hear about their aspirations of what they want to do in the Senate, just attack after attack on their opponents.This

On the Democratic side, they are mostly positive, mostly talking about whet they want to accomplish when elected and mostly positive messages.

Come to thanksgiving and both Ossoff and Warnock had messages of thankfulness and what thanksgiving means to them. From the right nothing but attacks.

And I repeated use of the word radical. I wonder what the record for use of one word in 60 seconds is, because these commercials could compete

Edit to add: and California is invading Georgia

Trump Team Holds News Conference Outside Drab Landscaping Firm, Next to Adult Book Store

Trump Team Holds News Conference Outside Drab Landscaping Firm, Next to Adult Book Store

On Saturday morning, shortly before the AP and other news outlets called the election for Joe Biden, President Donald Trump took to Twitter to announce that his lawyers would be holding a “big press conference” in Philadelphia. But there seems to have been some major confusion about where it would be held. First Trump tweeted it would take place at the “Four Seasons, Philadelphia.” Trump later corrected himself and said that the news conference was going to be held at the Four Seasons Total Landscaping. And the Four Seasons Hotel sent out its own tweet, making sure everyone knew that the news conference would not be held there but rather at the landscaping business that has “no relation with the hotel.”

When journalists arrived at the site of the news conference, they were flabbergasted by the scene and many quickly speculated that someone in the Trump campaign made a serious mistake. After all, the parking lot of a landscaping business in the outskirts of the city in an industrial part of town was a drab backdrop for a news conference by a president who wanted to convince Americans he still had a chance of winning. And making matters even stranger, the landscaping business was between an adult bookstore and a cremation center. The location led to lots of mockery online, and many people were very happy with the scene that was ripe for mockery, and some saw as a poignant metaphor of the failure of the Trump campaign.

Graham vows Senate Judiciary will investigate 'voting irregularities'

Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) said that he would investigate "all credible allegations of voting irregularities and misconduct" after receiving a sworn affidavit from a Pennsylvania postal worker alleging officials devised a plan to backdate mail ballots.

The senator's remarks came less than two hours after The Associated Press and other news outlets officially projected Joe Biden and Kamala Harris the winners in the race for White House.

President Trump has since refused to concede, repeating his claims without evidence that there have been several cases of voter fraud as part of a Democratic effort to steal the election from him.

In a press release, Graham stated that he had received a sworn affidavit from the Trump campaign provided by Richard Hopkins, a postal worker from Erie, Pa.
