NEW YORK — Georgia Republicans reportedly are less than gung-ho about wading through molten glass to reach the polls on Tuesday. They all know that control of the U.S. Senate and, potentially, all of Washington, D.C. rides on the re-election of GOP senator Kelly Loeffler or David Perdue — and ideally both. Despite the Himalayan stakes of this runoff, a cohort of Republicans seems to believe that there is little point in casting their ballots for Loeffler and Perdue. They fear that their votes will not count. So, they reckon, why bother lining up to vote if their genuine ballots simply will be neutralized by fraudulent ones, physically thrown away, or electronically erased?
“With over 70 percent of Republicans, according to recent polling, now believing that November’s presidential election was not ‘free and fair,’” The Guardian of London reported, “there are concerns that a collapse in trust in electoral processes could cost conservatives dearly at the ballot box.”
“On social media platforms Twitter and Parler, hashtags such as #StoptheSteal show what appear to be Republican voters suggesting they will not cast a ballot in the upcoming runoffs because of a distrust in the election system,” wrote VOA News’ Matt Haines.
This perspective, unfortunately, puts things perfectly upside down: Each and every Peach State Republican, pro-freedom independent, and thinking Democrat needs to vote on Tuesday for Loeffler and Perdue. They are unlikely to win if they just squeeze by. Instead, their margins of victory must exceed the margin of fraud. A squeaker will not suffice. A tsunami of pro-Loeffler/Perdue votes will secure these priceless seats.
While this ho-hum attitude is unfortunate and potentially fatal, it’s hardly surprising. Since November 3, pro-Trump Georgians have had every right to feel a blend of resignation and rage. The evidence of rampant fraud must have them catatonic to the point of being unable to reach their polling stations on January 5. Peach State election integrity is the pits.
