32 days left until the Georgia US Senate runoffs (#4325)

      The question about 200,000 or so citizens who were purged from the voting rolls prior to the 2020 general election who were still eligible to vote has yet to be resolved. Surely each of those eligible voters need to reregister to make sure they were able to vote in the 2020 general election and now the special senate runoff elections. The end of registration for these runoffs is on December 7th with the early voting starting on December 14. So any of those who were disenfranchised for the general election only have a few days to make sure they are eligible for the runoff election. There were nearly 5 million votes cast in the state of Georgia last month in the general election with the difference between the parties very narrow.
     So every vote will be needed by we democrats if we want to give everything we have to electing our 2 candidates and by that taking control of the senate. Which is a major priority if we are to get a sizable stimulus package out to the American citizenry. With republicans in control, they are holding fast to giving little to nothing to the American people while saying that a cure is just around the corner. But a cure cannot get to the American people fast enough as the economic factors in play have most all of us over a barrel. Having to wait out another 3 to 4 months at the earliest for a cure to arrive is too much a hardship to endure. Meanwhile Covid-19 is on a rampage spreading it's path of death everywhere in our nation.
     So as we have to shut down the economy even more without a stimulus deal from the republican party the likelihood that 10's of millions will be substantially harmed is increased exponentially with republicans holding the senate. Which is why every vote will matter in Georgia this coming runoff election period. Making sure that all democrats and democrat leaning independent voters who are eligible to vote are registered is the highest priority right now as the deadline for the registration cutoff is only 3 days away. The fate of our people and the progress of our nation is at stake here so there is no time for procrastination nor uncaring. We democrats have got to win these 2 senate runoff elections in Georgia and all that we can do must be done to make it happen.
