Democratic Party staff here in my county said that there are quite a few people voting in the runoff who did not vote in the general election. We hope they’ll vote for Reverend Warnock!

I tried to vote last Saturday but turned around when I saw the line. No point in clogging up the line when I have a flexible schedule.

Thanks!

I voted on Sunday here in Clarke County.

Our Board of Elections does a great job! There was a long line, but I was in and out in about 30 minutes

that all of these people are not coming out in droves to vote for a word salad spewing GQP lunatic. If they are, we are in far more trouble than is apparent.

Some of them get there about 6 am and leave maybe an hour after polls close. They go to training before polls ever open. And a lot of young people are stepping up to replace those who have worked the polls for years and are no longer comfortable doing.so.

I was in line for 1 hour 50 minutes at Buckhead library Monday morning. 90 people in front of me. 5 workers clearing voters.

Voters I called over the weekend have heard so much about voting they’re really sick of yet another call. The DNC and the Warnock campaign have done a great job.

But that will be the gist of the argument if Warnock wins--that high turnout is a sign of fraud.
