Republicans to boycott Georgia runoffs, Trump aint on the ticket I aint voting.
Calls by attorneys Lin Wood and Sydney Powell for Georgia voters to boycott two crucial Senate runoffs in January are sparking panic among Republicans, who fear that the duo’s remarks could cost them much-needed votes.
Wood and Powell, a former lawyer for the Trump campaign, have waged a series of legal battles in recent weeks challenging the results of the 2020 presidential election. But they turned heads on Wednesday when they urged Trump’s supporters at a rally in Alpharetta, Ga., not to vote in the January runoffs to protest the state’s elections process.
Their remarks have set off a scramble among GOP officials, operatives and other prominent Republicans tasked with turning out Trump’s loyal base of supporters for GOP Sens. Kelly Loeffler (Ga.) and David Perdue (Ga.) in January.
“Lin Wood and Sidney Powell are totally destructive,” former House Speaker Newt Gingrich (R-Ga.) tweeted Thursday morning. “Every Georgia conservative who cares about America MUST vote in the runoff. Their dont vote strategy will cripple America.”
The fallout from Wood and Powell’s rally adds another element of uncertainty to the GOP’s runoff efforts. Some Republicans have already expressed concern that Trump’s sustained attacks on Georgia’s elections process could serve to drive down turnout in January.
At their rally on Wednesday, Powell and Wood touted false claims that the presidential election was “rigged” against Trump and urged a crowd of the president’s supporters to boycott the Jan. 5 Senate runoffs unless top Georgia officials implement sweeping changes to the state’s voting system to guard against what they say is widespread fraud.
Federal and state investigators have uncovered no evidence of voter fraud in the 2020 election.
