In the AJC: Moving Past Election Denialism Toward Georgia's Priorities
Democrats’ sweep of Georgia midterms could put 2020 election denial to bed
The 2020 election has loomed over Georgia for years. With Democrats sweeping the midterms, is it over?
The AJC features Rep. Saira Draper discussing Georgia's midterm elections and the urgent need to move past election denial to focus on working families.
With Democratic victories on November 3rd, should we expect election deniers in Georgia to continue spreading their lies? Perhaps not.
Senator-elect Draper quoted on November 6th in the Atlanta Journal-Constitution:
“There’s probably going to still be people in the Legislature who will be spreading misinformation, but I just don’t see it getting the same traction as it used to,” said Saira Draper, a Democratic state representative who won a seat in the state Senate on Tuesday. “For the sake of everyone, I sure hope we can move forward. There are so many more important things to be discussing at this point.”
