- Meanwhile, the eyes ofWashington are turning to Georgia,
where voters will decidewho controls the Senate.
The president will campaignthere this weekend,
and as CBN's Heather Sells reports,
Republicans are mixed abouthow much he might help
or hurt Georgia's GOP Senate candidates.
- [Heather] As temperaturesdropped in Georgia this week,
state politics turned the heat up.
The Secretary of State says Georgia
will complete the machine recount
requested by the presidentby midnight Wednesday.
The original certified resultshowed Joe Biden winning
by less than 13,000 votes.
- Once this recount is complete,
everyone in Georgia will be able to have
even more confidence in theresults of our elections
despite the massiveamounts of misinformation
that is being spread by dishonest actors.
- [Heather] The recountcomes amidst a closer look
at vote spikes in Georgia,Michigan, and Wisconsin.
Kentucky Senator Rand Paulpointed out the new findings.
They come from an analysisof "New York Times" data
showing an unusually largenumber of Biden votes
coming in during the samefive-hour window on November 4th.
Another driver behindthe political battle,
the two Georgia races that will determine
which party controls the US Senate.
Democrats are trying to unseat incumbents
as Jon Ossoff takes onRepublican David Perdue
and Reverend Raphael Warnock
matches up against Kelly Loeffler.
But here's the plot twist.
Even as Democrats have praised
the Republican Secretaryof State for pushing back
against the president'sallegations of fraud,
Secretary Raffenspergeris now investigating
a voter registrationgroup that Warnock had led
before leaving in February.
Raffensperger says the New Georgia Project
sent voter registrationapplications to New York City,
a violation of state law.
But the president's ongoingcharges of voter fraud
could potentially work against the GOP.
Party leaders worry they couldturn moderate Republicans
away from the January runoffas well as Trump supporters
who see the system as hopelessly corrupt.
Trump will go to the Peach State
to campaign for Republican candidates,
hoping to head that off.
