Georgia Senate’s Election Law Study Subcommittee unanimously passed a motion during a Dec. 30 hearing to request an audit of absentee ballots in Fulton County, after data scientists, forensic experts, and others provided evidence and analysis of the data and equipment of the Peach State.
The upcoming runoff elections in Georgia will operate in the same manner as the Nov. 3 election, except that it is required that the results be posted much more quickly than in November when it took days before an unofficial result was available.
“We need them in Washington, DC, to continue to protect our way of life,” Noem elaborated. “We live in a country that has gotten addicted to being offended and we love to be offended by what people say.”
Senate Republican incumbents David Perdue and Kelly Loeffler are up against Democrats Jon Ossoff and Raphael Warnock, respectively. Currently, Republicans hold 50 seats in the Senate, while Democrats have 48.
Noem underlined the responsibility of both the voters and elected officials, urging voters to “show up and vote and make sure you’re doing it based on the facts on the difference of these candidates on Tuesday.”
