Georgia GOP senators dig in on refusal to recognize Biden win
By Max Greenwood and Julia Manchester - 12/15/20 04:07 PM EST

Georgia's GOP senators are refusing to acknowledge Joe Biden as president-elect a day after Electoral College voters met to cast their ballots and officially name him the winner over President Trump.

The Electoral College vote has led to a number of top Republicans recognizing Biden as president-elect, including Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.).

But Sen. Kelly Loeffler (R-Ga.) on Tuesday tweeted that she would keep fighting for Trump, and otherwise did not acknowledge the Electoral College vote.


Loeffler and Sen. David Perdue (R-Ga.) are fighting for reelection in two critical runoffs on Jan. 5. Neither candidate has so far publicly acknowledged Biden’s victory, putting them at odds with a growing number of top Republicans who since Monday have recognized that the former vice president will succeed Trump in the White House.

Man, I am torn on this.  I admire their loyalty, and tenacity in supporting Trump in the fact this thing was stolen.

OTOH, is this really a good strategy on a 1 month basis, to draw in GA moderates?  This election is basically the last dike to stop a Biden socialist flood.
