Perdue: “Georgia’s not turning blue” in anticipation for Jan. runoff
Featured Stories, News November 13, 2020
U.S. Senator candidate Kelly Loeffler and David Perdue talked to Georgia voters in Forsyth County. They hosted a large crowd at Black Diamond Grill at 3 p.m.
The goal was to reach voters in the area to encourage voting for the runoffs on Jan. 5. The race between GOP Sen. David Perdue and Democrat Jon Ossoff will be the first runoff.
The second runoff will be between Republican Sen. Kelly Loeffler and Democrat Raphael Warnock. The outcome of the runoff will determine which party will have control over the Senate.
Loeffler made it clear to the Georgia voters that she plans to continue to be the voice for each of them.
“Make no mistake, we are the firewall, not just for the U.S. Senate but for the future of our country,” Loeffler said.
The runoff is crucial to the representation of the Republican party. All Georgia citizens have to do is get their vote out, Perdue said.
“Georgia’s not turning blue,” Perdue said.
Loeffler said Perdue and herself ensure the “conservative values” for each Georgian, and further stressed the importance of voting in the runoff.
“No one is going to outwork us to make sure that Georgian’s have what they need,” Loeffler said. “America has the freedoms that we deserve and that our God given rights of the Constitution. We’re going to continue for conservative rights, for affordable healthcare, for school choice, for conservative values that lift everyone up. We will be your voice in Washington if you’re our voice on January 5.”
This is war! 300 Forsyth County conservatives gear up to fight for Loeffler and Perdue Senate Seats

FORSYTH COUNTY, Ga. – The tiny Republican Party Headquarters was bursting at the seams Thursday evening until Party Chairman Patrick Bell abandoned the effort to squeeze 300 raucous Republicans into a room designed for maybe 75 and moved the meeting to the Lake Center parking lot.
They came out to voice their support and pledge they will spare no effort to elect Republican Senators David Perdue and Kelly Loeffler in the Jan. 5 runoff election. If Perdue and Loeffler win, the U.S. Senate will maintain control of the Senate.
For Republicans, it is a choice between defending America’s democracy and descending into socialism. It is that simple, they say. and it is a war.
Public Service Commissioner told the crowd, “What is important tonight is that Georgia, Georgia, Georgia will determine the outcome of this election.”
Carter Patterson, a co-chair of the David Perdue campaign said, “The nation has its eyes on us tonight. He encouraged Republicans who have friends living outside the state to contact them and have them call other friends who live in Georgia to get them to vote.
But the harshest rhetoric came from Carolyn Hall Fisher, First Vice Chair of the Georgia GOP, who excoriated the leftist agenda. “This is communism. I don’t care what they tell you. Don’t accept this. They have been wanting to take our freedoms away from us for years. They have wanted to do it and they have done it bit by bit by bit. We will not stand for this anymore. If, after the recount, Joe Biden is declared fair and square President of the United States, we will not unite with communists and socialists. I will not go to my grave having this country as a socialist country.”

Is Kelly Loeffler’s Trump voting record truly 100 percent?
Featured, Featured News, Featured Stories, News October 19, 2020
On the campaign trail and in her campaign ads, Senator Kelly Loeffler often mentions she has a 100 percent voting record with President Donald Trump. While this sounds great for Sen. Loeffler, it is not 100 percent true. If we were the Washington Post, Loeffler would earn three Pinocchios.
What Loeffler would love GOP voters to forget, is that she went against President Trump and voted for NDAA legislation that would rename military bases named after Confederate generals.

Despite Trump’s Veto Threat, Senate Approves Provision To Rename Military Bases
“The Republican-controlled Senate on Thursday overwhelmingly passed a defense appropriations bill that calls for renaming U.S. military bases that honor Confederate officers — a provision that President Trump has threatened to veto.
The Senate’s 86-14 vote to approve the annual National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) is more than enough to override a veto, should the president follow through on his threat. The vote comes days after the House passed a similar version of the $741 billion bill.”

President Trump was very vocal in his opposition to renaming the military bases as you can see from this article from the Washington Post on July 1, 2020 – way before Senator Loeffler voted against Trump.
Trump vows to veto $740 billion defense bill if Confederate-named military bases are renamed
While Loeffler may vote with the President most of the time, they aren’t in 100 percent agreement.
