We were able to do just that, created the best economic turnaround in U.S. history.

"He's up against Republican Senator David Perdue, Emma for people who have somehow missed this news briefly give us an overview of this of this call. Yes. So the president and some of his advisers spoke with the secretary of state in Georgia and some of his attorneys and members of his offices well to talk through, it seems some of the grievances that the president has had with George's election system. Meanwhile, the secretary of State's office has really set itself apart in Georgia by refusing to acknowledge voter fraud, widespread voter fraud by saying, Look, we know that our election system was secure that no widespread voter fraud happened and this is the president. Trying. Tonto basically convince the secretary of state it seems to help him find find votes to flip the state, which you know, as the governor said last week that barn that horse has left the barn and Georgia it's It's in D C now with the electoral college vote, And so this was just Really? Um, you know, the president has been talking about voter fraud on Twitter for weeks now, but to hear it in this call to hear him lobbying. A state official like this and to hear the officials calmly refuting these claims and calmly, you know, saying, Mr President, That's not true. We we can't do that. Was really remarkable. What we got this message from David on Facebook, who says 3.5 years ago, I heard a pundit predict that following Trump's base, rather than having a core platform would destroy the Republican Party. It will be interesting to see how the party reacts. If they lose this election, Brian Kemp is wise to distance himself from it. Last week, the president once again, said Georgia's Republican governor, Brian Kemp should resign. We should mention Rapids Burger is also a Republican. How is this shaking up Georgia's establishment on the Republican side? You know, there's the morale among Republicans that I've spoken to today and yesterday is not great. Right now. This is you know, it's it's not. This is new, but it's following a path that we've been going down here. Um for Republicans in Georgia, where the president has been openly criticizing people that he used to endorse, including Robyn's Burger and Governor Kemp and really sowing confusion among Republican voters. He's telling people to vote tomorrow in the run offs, but at the same time, you know, questioning that the system and November calling it you know, saying it was fraudulent and so There's just been this whole mess of messages coming out of the White House. And the big worry right now, for Republicans, of course, is if this you know if this dissuades just a couple just a couple 1000 Republican voters From turning out tomorrow. That could be the difference in what are really competitive Senate races Give us a snapshot of the race as it stands right now. How close are these races? Really close. I mean the polling. It's the polling is has been too close to call for some time, but I think what we've seen kind of has a higher level narrative is at the beginning of this. You know these road the Republicans races to lose. Republicans outperformed Democrats in these two Senate races in November, even though Biden did narrowly carry the state. And, um, and here we are, You know, the day before the election and given the president's rhetoric and the kind of the civil war that has erupted in the Republican Party where there really wasn't one before. It's it's looking. It's looking even closer than people might assume because Republicans Air the incumbent party in Georgia, and so Republican voters tend to turn out better. They're better at voting, right Andare more reliable, particularly for races like the run offs, But you know these. These clearly aren't normal run offs, so there are a lot of people who are going to be voting now and so those those normal rules about Republicans winning run offs. Might not apply here. I'm a very briefly put the early voting numbers in into perspective Force more than 2.3 Million people have already cast their vote. What does that mean for this election? Yeah, it's it's actually grown. It's now more than three million, and that is turnout. That's below the 2020 run on 2020 Turn out, you know at this time in early voting, but we've got nearly 120,000 new voters in this runoff number. It didn't vote in the general. So that's another important number that everybody's looking at. We're talking about tomorrow's Senate run offs and Georgia with Emma Hurd POLITICS REPORTER it W A. B E. That's Atlanta's NPR station. Now today, both the president and the president elect are heading down South. Donald Trump will rally in Dalton County for the Republicans. Joe Biden will rally in Fulton County for the Democrats. One of the would be senators, Biden is rallying on behalf of his Democratic candidate, John US off his campaign slogan is Vote Your Ass off. He's up against Republican Senator David Perdue. And he joins us now to talk about his bid. John, I know you're having a busy week, so thanks for making time to check in. Thank you so much for having me Hello from Augusta, Georgia. We just finished a rally with Reverend Warnock. But we should also note that we asked all four candidates to join us in the invitation still stands So as of December 30th year, one point ahead in the polls. That's according to Fivethirtyeight Average of all run off pulling the election was head to head Now the run off his head to head Where do you see your best path to victory? This is all about energizing record shattering turnout, and we're encouraged by the turnout. We've seen an early vote, particularly among young voters and black voters. We've building a historic coalition in Georgia that really represents the rise of New South. Since the early 19 seventies, the Republican strategy in the South has been to divide people along racial and cultural lines so that people from different backgrounds failed to grasp their shared economic and health interests. And here in these two all important Senate run offs and Georgia Now you've got the young Jewish son of an immigrant mentor by John Lewis. That's me running alongside Senior pastor at Ebeneezer Baptist Church, a black preacher who pastored John Lewis. That's Reverend Raphael Warnock. And that represents how far Georgia has come in the last 10 years and indeed, over the last half century. Well, we got this message from Lisa on Facebook. Who says Georgia voter here? I wasn't thrilled with either of my choices. I only voted for one of the run offs because I could not in good conscience vote for either candidate. And the other for people who are concerned about the division of power in Congress. You say one party controlling the House Senate and presidency is too much power. How do you respond to that concern? Well, look. If Mitch McConnell and Republicans maintain control of the Senate, the result will be paralysis and gridlock. Think folks will remember how Barack Obama was treated by the Republican Senate. In his second term, McConnell and his caucus will exercise power ruthlessly for powers own sake. They will block Progress that we need. They will block the covert relief that people need. I mean, even right now, with a Republican president who supports $2000 stimulus checks. And a Democratic president elect, who supports $2000 stimulus checks and overwhelming public opinion. Supporting generous direct covert relief for the American people. McConnell is blocking $2000 checks. So imagine what he will do when it is a Democrat in the White House, increasing the minimum wage. He'll block its civil rights and voting rights legislation. Hill Block it the kind of investment in infrastructure and clean energy that we need. We'll block it, so the choice here is between progress and paralysis and the people of Georgia are voting in record numbers for progress. Do you see this as a Mitch McConnell issue or a Republican Party issue? Well, look, Mitch McConnell is who he is on the nature of Washington right now, sadly, is such that divided government will yield.

Georgia election: All you need to know about key Senate runoff races
"Critical Georgia run offs, which will determine control of the Senate. The latest FIVETHIRTYEIGHT polling averages show the race is nearly deadlocked. Republican incumbent David Perdue trails Democratic challenger John Assaf. By about a percentage point in the regular election, while Senator Kelly La Flor, who was appointed to fill a vacancy trails her Democratic challenger, the Reverend Raphael Warren, up by almost two points in the special election. Our correspondent Rachel Scott, is in Atlanta with the very latest. Good morning, Rachel. Martha Good Morning, and Georgia already seeing record voter turnout for a special election. More than three million have already cast their ballot here who had just 48 hours ago. One of the Republicans in the race, Senator David Perdue, is now on the sidelines. He isn't self quarantine after coming into close contact with a campaign staffer who tested positive for covert 19. And the stakes could just not be higher. Republicans are calling this their last line of defense Democrats say what happens here in Georgia will set the course of Joe Biden's presidency. So to pull this off, Democrats would have to win both of their races that would bring the split in the Senate to 50 50 and then Vice President elect Kamila Harris would serve As the tie breaking vote. But if one of those Democratic candidates lose just one of their races, Republicans will be hanging on to majority in the Senate. And at this point, it's all about turning out the base to vote. So that's why tomorrow you will see President Trump and President elect Joe Biden campaigning here, he don't know. Biden was the first Democrat to win the state of Georgia and nearly 30 years. Runoff elections in this state have largely favored Republicans. But then on the flip side, you have some Republicans who are concerned that the president's own words that the election is rigged. That these runoff are invalid will then cost them majority in the Senate mark back. And Rachel Scott. Thanks very much for more. Let's bring in the former Democratic leader in the Georgia House of Representatives and the founder of Fair Fight, Stacey Abrams. Good morning to you. We've seen those polls that give Democrats a slight edge. But is there anything you're seeing on the ground that gives you concern? No concern? Just a great deal of urgency. We did very well in vote by mail. We did very well in early vote, but we know Election Day is going to be the likely high turnout day for Republicans, So we need Democrats who haven't cast their ballots to turn out. If they have any questions to go toe I will vote dot com to find their polling places and two months ago even is Joe Biden was winning Georgia John Assaraf trailed Republican David Perdue by nearly 90,000 votes and in the special election. The Republican candidates combined for nearly 50,000 more votes than the Democrats. I know that roughly 75,000 new voters have been registered since early November. How certain are you that those are Democrats were very certain that most of those were Democrats. Given the composition based on race and age, and let's be clear. We know a number of the people who voted for Joe Biden. As Democrats sometimes just skip the rest of the ballot. They came out to vote for the president because of a number of low propensity voters who came out for Democrats. What we're so excited about is that we haven't stopped reaching those voters. Millions of contacts have been made. Thousands of new registrations have been held, and we know that at least 100,000 people who did not vote in the general election are now voting in this election, and they again are disproportionately young and disproportionately people of color and does the fact that Biden outperform the Senate races indicate that his win really was more about President Trump than it was representative of some kind of ideological shift to the Left in the state. Not at all. We know that for new voters, especially new voters of color, There's a tendency to only vote in races where they are certain of the outcome. They know Joe Biden. Joe Biden's been a part of American politics for 40 plus years and so for a number of new voters, they're going to vote on Lee when they're confident. That's why we spent this time over the last nine weeks, educating voters about Jon Ossoff's and Raphael Warnock. They've crisscrossed the state and we believe we've closed that distance and that the voters that are turning out now absolutely no them and are standing by their sides and voting for them and you

Republicans Kelly Leffler and David Perdue and their Democratic challengers Raphael Warnock and John Aasif, have primarily focused on mobilizing voters. Head of January 5th. ABC is Michelle friends and spoke to ABC News political director Rick Klein about the upcoming races. Give me an idea what we can expect in these final hours before the runoff election. There's gonna be a flurry of campaign activity. Kamila Harris coming to Georgia and then Joe Biden and Donald Trump will both be there. Underscoring the stakes celebrities are coming in and out. In an interesting twist, Senator David Perdue is quarantining because he was exposed to covert 19. So there's remarkable teamwork in this race and really is the two Democrats versus the two Republicans. This is as big as it ever gets for runoff elections. Joe Biden will be president in three weeks time and whether he controls the Senate as well of the house, has he? No. Obvious implications on his legislative agenda, judicial and Cabinet appointments. The hearing schedule is set by the majority leader in Congress. So if that's Mitch McConnell he can effectively block and Republicans can effectively block any appointment. But Democrats winning both of these seats would give them a 50 50 Senate, which would give Vice President Harris as the president of the Senate, the ability to break ties. If either of both of these races fall to the Republicans, it means that Mitch McConnell has an effective veto power over the Biden agenda. Give us an idea of what's going on on the ground and what's been accomplished in Georgia canvassing looks different in the era of Copan 19.

Deadline or because they weren't even eligible Get. Some voters turned 18 in the last two months, and a lot of it is educational. A lot of it is organizational. And the arguments that being made about getting involved really underscored the stakes that one state has this ability to shape the balance of power in the Senate in a way that's never happened before. All right, Let's talk about the candidates. David Perdue, isolating as you mentioned Democrats Raphael Warnock and John also for trying to unseat Purdue and Republican Kelly La Flor, Can they do it?
