In a last-minute campaign for Democratic Senate challengers Jon Ossoff and Raphael Warnock, president-elect Joe Biden visited Georgia and highlighted why the Senate runoffs in the state are important. Biden urged voters to repeat the turnout they had during the November elections one more time to further flip the state to blue.
Biden visited Georgia on Monday before the Senate runoff elections will take place to make one more case for Ossoff and Warnock. The runoffs will determine which party will have control of the Senate chamber. Ossoff and Warnock are challenging the Senate seats of Republicans David Perdue and Kelly Loeffler. The runoffs will also mark the end of the election cycle following the November elections which saw Georgia cast its electoral votes for Biden. Outgoing president Donald Trump continues to push claims of voter fraud without providing evidence.
“You voted in record numbers in November and we won, three times here with each recount,” said Biden during a drive-in rally for the candidates. Biden cited the demands by Trump and his campaign to recount the votes, with the same results every time. “Now we need you to vote again in record numbers...Their election will put an end to the block in Washington on that $2,000 stimulus check. That money will go out the door immediately to people who are in trouble.”
The president-elect then noted what would happen if Ossoff and Warnock unseat Perdue and Loeffler in the Senate. Biden explained that a Democratic-controlled Senate would make COVID-19 vaccine plans and other relief legislation go through a smoother process as well as stimulus checks to families and individuals who have been severely affected by the pandemic.
Regardless of the objections raised by Republicans at the Capitol about his election win, Biden is still set to be sworn in as the next president of the country. With his inauguration less than 20 days away, many are now wondering who would be attending the inauguration ceremony. Among those who are confirmed to attend will be former Republican president George W. Bush and former first lady Laura Bush. The news was revealed by Bush’s chief of staff Freddy Ford, who also noted that this would be the eighth inauguration that the former first couple has attended.
