Kamala Harris campaigns in Georgia: 2020 ain t over until Jan. 5 Marquise Francis
ATLANTA Vice President-elect Kamala Harris campaigned in Georgia on Monday for Senate Democratic hopefuls Jon Ossoff and the Rev. Raphael Warnock, emphasizing the “need” for them in Washington.
Harris, at an outdoor drive-in rally in Columbus, a city of around 200,000 in the western part of the state, said, “2020 has been rough. As far as I’m concerned . 2020 ain’t over until Jan. 5. … You have it within your hands to make a statement about who Georgia is, and the power of the voice of Georgia.”
This was Harris’s first visit to the Peach State since the Democratic presidential ticket narrowly won there in November’s general election by roughly 12,000 votes. The visit also comes after President-elect Joe Biden campaigned in Atlanta last Tuesday, urging Georgians to vote for Ossoff and Warnock so he can “get something done” as president.
