Supporting the two Democratic Senate candidates in georgia this just got underway. We have came so far together and georgia democrats have done what others thought was impossible. We flipped georgia blue. Georgians already knew it but we proved to the entire nation that georgia is ready for big change.

Numbers. We close in on counties beginning the certification process. I know there were questions mainly concerning the military ballots, which were the last ones to come in on friday. With that, at the end of the were 18,407 military votes that were accepted and outstanding, which means they cannot come in now, but those were the out there available and ones could have come in but did not, 7786.

And how are the two parties, democrats and republicans, now going to move forward in terms their programs and policies but how they position themselves electorally over the next couple of years. With that, let me turn the microphone to my coconspirator in this endeavor, ellen tess cano. Ellen im the cofounder of the inside american politics experience. Last year and this year at nyu. 2008 following the historic election of barack obama as president. , we co
