High School Government Questions: Who votes for Georgia until the election is decided? I assume the incumbents. Also why does the U.S. Senate page only list Loeffler currently? With how close the margins are I feel like a recount is inevitable, how long until the new senators would be sworn in with a recount? (https://www.senate.gov/general/contact_information/senators_cfm.cfm?State=GA) |
Perdue’s term ended with the last Congress and Georgia has not elected a replacement yet- so it is open. Loeffler’s term did not end and she was appointed until someone is elected to replace her, which has yet to happen. |
I’m not sure which high school would have these very specific questions in its curriculum. |
Thanks for the response. I was finally able to find an article that explained it better for me. I was joking with the high school government question - this is an odd situation that I don't expect to be in curriculum and had a hard time finding answers for but this article helped. https://www.ajc.com/politics/runoffs-to-leave-georgia-one-man-down-in-senate/QV4WTC7RH5BCLA7KUB2FRDZUZE/ |
This is correct, and also prompts the question as to why Georgia scheduled the runoff on January 5 after his term would be over. Why not in December? |

Loeffler's latest Facebook ad has purposely darkened Warnock's shin color throughout the ad. https://www.salon.com/2021/01/04/kelly-loefflers-new-facebook-ad-darkens-skin-of-raphael-warnock-her-black-opponent/

Kelly Loeffler reminds me of a drunk praying mantis. |
How many days (weeks?) do you think it will take to know the results? |
all four candidates seem nauseating. |
Should be called quickly for the Ds. No way Republicans will make up the early voting deficit. |
I want to be optimistic but I don’t see the Dems pulling this off. |
