Since the general election trump has refused to concede defeat to the now official president elect Joe Biden. Yesterday the electoral college of each of our 50 states and Washington, District of Columbia, formalized the votes and declared Joe Biden the victor. That trump is still not conceding after being roundly defeated by over 7 million votes nationwide and losing the electoral vote by a whopping 74, says more about his character or lack thereof than it does about any logically conceivable evidence he has of wrongdoing. With the electoral college blessing yesterday, Joe Biden, a man of consideration and humility, is now poised to position himself as the coming leader of our nation.
One way he will do that is today in Georgia where he will be campaigning for Raphael Warnock and Jon Ossoff to help them win the two senate seats up for election on January 5, 2021. Early voting has begun there and already more than 20% of the mail in ballots have been returned with 3 weeks still to go until the January 5th election day. Over 260,000 mail in ballots have been received. So it is maybe a few days late for Joe to be going to Georgia to help persuade democrats and independents to vote for the two democrats but with his electoral vote confirmation now behind him it gives him the edge he needs to tell undecided voters that his agenda is coming and he needs all their help to get it into law.
Early in person voting began yesterday and I don't have the daily figures for those yet but I have no doubt that the interest in this election will not be dampened by it's lack of a presidential choice. On the contrary, the ability of the new president to affect positive change is on the ballot in Georgia so it may well be that the choices made in Georgia come the end of day on January 5th may well decide who is actually president. Joe Biden with his legitimate mandate but in need of the control of the Senate, or mitch mcconnell and the shadow of trump calling the shots. This Georgia election is truly a do or die moment for the rest of the nation so please Georgians, do all you can to make trump disappear in the shadows instead of lurking behind the democracy killing mcconnell.
This blog will be an advocate for compassion, curiosity and human survival. When these elements of human nature are being denied, wholly, severally or individually, less than positive human traits are the outcome. It is my wish and hope that my reasonings on a variety of subjects will provide the readers of this blog with personal and public insights. My only motive is to provide a forum for advancing enlightenment. Carl Clark.
