Georgia elections are important for the whole of America

The U.S. state of Georgia will elect two senators on Tuesday. Those seats define what the U.S. Senate will look like and are important to the administration of incoming President Joe Biden. Until the last moment, the campaign, including President Donald Trump, has been going on. “It will continue,” said Willem Post, an American expert in the Netherlands. “In his last speech, he said he’s not really going to leave the White House: we’re really going to win.”

The audience was thrilled with the result, but the Post explains that he is also his true fans. He also said that voting machines should be investigated. It has happened before, but he wants to continue. So the fight continues. ”

So two seats for the Senate, a kind of US Senate, are given in Georgia. Democrats now have 48, Republicans 50. “If the Democrats win it will be 50-50, and Kamala Harris as Democratic vice president can make a difference. Many appointments and policies have been approved by the Senate. You can’t compare this to the Dutch Senate, but you can compare it a little bit. ”

‘With that you are undermining democracy’

Trump is now making it a national election, the Post said. “Like the Democrats, by the way. Last night it was about Georgia, but 80 to 90 percent of Trump’s speech was about” the horrible abuse of November 3, when I lost that election. ” Corleone is a kind of godfather who puts pressure on anyone who blocks his way.

The American expert says this is a very dangerous development. “Because it’s definitely undermining democracy. You are denying the election results when there are already sixty cases.

‘So Remember’

For an hour, Trump called Georgia’s top election leader and put pressure on him. This is called unprecedented brutality in the American media. Trump wants to point out that there must be some sort of reconsideration in Georgia. But he expects every Republican to support him, just like those two candidates there. ”

They also claim to do. Like other republics in the country. They do so because Trump has 74 million voters behind him. He has already said: If you do not agree with me, Congress elections will be held again in two years, then I will let you know, so remember. ”

‘Democrats have the largest vote in Atlanta’

The Post explains that Georgia is actually a Republican party, but it also has the city of Atlanta. “This is a city of diversity, they vote overwhelmingly for the Democrats there. We can already see, you ‘ve been able to vote before, there’s already been a lot of voting, it’s in favor of the Democrats. So today the Republicans are going to the polls in large numbers. ”

But Trump’s pressure could go wrong for him too. “If the president himself says in a speech that things are being deceived, will they still go? Trump also has Republicans who say they see really good things, but now what he has done is in black and white, which goes a long way.”
