  1. Hello. Everybody who is tuning in It is election night
  2. in Georgia.
  3. And it Georgia, where Republican David Perdue looks like he's
  4. going to be facing off against Democrat Jon Ossoff.
  5. Um, a former investigative journalist, David produced the current senator
  6. of Georgia, and they're gonna be facing authors.
  7. But you know, that lead has been decreasing over the
  8. years, You know, 2012.
  9. It was some something.
  10. The Republican presidency.
  11. And then, um 2016.
  12. It was only 50%.
  13. You know, it just keeps narrowing by the polls since,
  14. you know, youth voters aren't typically the likely voters.
  15. Um, but this year they're supposed to be coming out
  16. in record numbers.
  17. Um, all right, let's take a look at the house.
  18. Here it is.
  19. District six.
  20. So similarly, um, you know that spent over 150,000 also,
  21. um, handle only has a little bit over 674,000.
  22. 75,000 or so.
  23. So I mean of a white population in Georgia, it
  24. shouldn't be too much.
  25. Should be enough to move on to some of the
  26. key issues there.
  27. Abortion has been a big issue.
  28. Um, handle.
  29. On the other hand, she's taking the very opposite side
  30. of the issue.
  31. Um, so this issue since Trump has been able to
  32. add a justice to the Supreme Court that is anti
  33. abortion and Rovi the Roe v.
  34. Wade decision could be overturned.
  35. Um, Democrats, who are, like, fearful of something like this
  36. happening could beam or encouraged toe go out and vote
  37. from a bath because, um, you know, she is, um,
  38. pro abortion, pro choice.
  39. And so it could pull extra support for her.
  40. Um, these things could go either way.
  41. Um, gun control also has been a big issue in
  42. District six.
  43. Lucy McBath actually lost her son Jordan in 2012 due
  44. to a shooting.
  45. Um, he was murdered.
  46. Uh, and as a result, McBath has been a big
  47. supporter of, um, a strong advocate for more gun control.
  48. Karen Handel won kind of come into the news.
  49. Uh, more recently, um, this could also put McBath in
  50. a better position.
  51. People are people are scared.
  52. Um, and they want somebody who might advocate for gun
  53. control. But, you know, uh uh, handle.
  54. She's also condemned things like this.
  55. She's strong and firm position, and she has a personal
  56. relationship to this issue.
  57. So, uh, I would say it is more likely that
  58. you know somebody like McBath.
  59. All right?
  60. She gets the best of this issue.
  61. All right, I'm gonna hand it over to Fin Vivian's.
  62. Who's going to take over for the House of District
  63. seven. Thank you.
