and we need to send david perdue and kelly loeffler back to washington, d.c. a republican senate majority could be the last line of defense to preserve all that we've done to defend this nation, revive our economy and picture of the god given liberties we hold to. [applause] but you know to be enough to send these two people back to washington because who they are, like like a fourth-generation farm girl from the heartland. she moved down here to georgia just as soon as you heard about it. she built the company appeared she broke barriers in business, became one of the most successful businessman in the history of this state. and i can also tell you in a very short time she has emerged as one of the most important and unapologetic conservative voices on capitol hill. we need senator kelly leffler back in the united states senate. [applause] or like a son of macon who worked his way up to literally the top of the business world. and then he and his family felt a calling to public service. after spending 40 years as one of the most successful business leaders in

supporters for kelly loeffler and david purdue, a shared watch party. ll come down to voter turnout, who did a better job of getting out their base, loeffler or warnock? i spoke with the national committee woman to the republican national committee. she believes we may not find out who won this race for a long time. >> it is going to be a long night probably because a lot of people voted today. republicans usually show up on election day. i voted today. we had really heavy turnout today, especially in north georgia. live at the grand hyatt, you can see the crowd that gathered to watch the returns for votes. loeffler is planning to address this crowd later tonight. channel 2 action news. >> we know senator purdue is still in quarantine, did not test positive. many of his supporters are gathering tonight. channel 2 continues live team coverage. from outsideng where you just saw it richard. david purdue has been in quarantine with his wife after one of his campaign staffers tested positive for covid-19. walking by you can see a joyful atmosphere. earlier we

for david perdue and kelly loeffler, they cut taxes.soff and raphael warnock are going to raise taxes on people and businesses all across the country. you may have seen in raphael warnock is actually caught on tape calling members of the united states senate "gangsters and thugs" because they voted to cut taxes on hardworking americans across the peach state. and raphael warnock has called our most cherished l.a l.a. "an apartheid state." president donald trump did what no american president had ever done before when he moved to the american embassy to jerusalem, the capital of the state of israel. [cheers and applause] i'll tell you, under president donald trump, david perdue and kelly loeffler, if the world knows nothing else, the world will know this. america stands with israel. [cheers and applause] and where jon ossoff and raphael warnock, like the party they represent, support abortion on demand and taxpayer funding of abortion all the way up to the moment of birth. i couldn't be more proud to serve alongside the most pro-life pre

the stops ahead of tuesday's georgia senate runoff, president trump older rally for republicans kelly loefflernd david perdue tomorrow, it will be the first time a sitting president has visited dalton in 28 years. he is counting on republican support to help reelect perdue and loeffler to keep senate control and senate hands. steve harrigan is in dalton georgia right now. >> this is the final push for turnout, ordinarily runoff elections in georgia you see a drop off in turnout, that is not the case this time around, the senate races to determine which will control the senate have remarkable turnout within 3 million people voting early in these elections, more than 100,000 people are new voters, some of these people are actually people who turned 18 after the general election and before the runoff elections. if you look across the state there are differences as to where that turnout is heaviest, the highest turnout are in districts around atlanta, democratic territory, some more than 80% of the general election back in november, some of the lowest turnout unfortunately for republicans is aroun

the other senate contest raphael warnock has a 31,000 vote lead over kelly loeffler, 237,000 votes for 205,000 votes for loeffler. 53.5% for warnock. 46.5% for loeffler. 11% of the vote is now in. they're counting the votes relatively quickly, pamela. >> they absolutely are. i just got off the phone with the georgia election official gabriel sterling who tells me they are now keeping the state system open an extra three hours. it was supposed to close at 11:00 p.m. and now it is going to be open until 2:00 a.m. here's why this matters. that allows officials in georgia to tabulate more votes tonight. up until 2:00 a.m. with the absentee ballots because this is the same system they rely on for signature verification. they initially were going to stop counting and working on the absentee ballots at 11:00 p.m. because they wouldn't have access to that system. that has changed. they have an extra three hours to process and tabulate those absentee ballots. as we know skew democratic. he also tells me that a vast majority of results will be known tonight. those votes that came in before today

god bless america. >> i'm kelly loeffler. i approve this message. , georgias the choice and kelly loeffler spent tens of millions of dollars trying to scare you. she has attacked my church, my faith, even my family. she is trying to make you afraid of me because she is afraid of you, afraid that you understand how she has used her position in andsenate to enrich herself others like her, afraid you will realize we can do better. i am raphael warnock. if you like me to senate, i will wake up every day guided by the values of hard work, passion instilled in me by my parents and inspired by the works of dr. king, who said that life's most urgent question is what are you doing for others. even in these crazy times, i think it is possible to work together to improve the lives of georgians, all georgians. that is exactly what i will do in washington. i approve this message and humbly ask for your vote. the: a couple adds their in leffler-warnock race. -- loeffler-warnock race. we spent the first hour talking about the georgia senate

republican party inside the state of georgia while campaigning on behalf of david perdue and kelly loeffler. what type of position does that put perdue and loeffler when you have the president attacking the georgia secretary of state and the governor, which he's done for the last couple months but specifically last night, when he said i'll see you back here in georgia campaigning against these folks in just ai year's time. >> kelly loeffler was next to the president. she had been appointed by governor brian kemp, a republican. governor kemp could not be at that rally last night because he was not invited to that rally last night. had he gone, the president probably would have attacked him verbally while he was there. it's created this very bizarre dynamic. it's all the same pot of republican voters that all of these leaders are going after. kelly loeffler at one time is saying go vote in january's election, go vote tomorrow. by the way, i'm going to challenge the results of last month's election. we know she's going to challenge the electoral college results that will have to include georgi

kelly loeffler got 71%. you'll be like, oh, donald trump visited. kelly loeffler got 71%. that's great. well, not really. it's not that much different than what joe biden and donald trump did there in the presidential election. biden got 29%. raphael warnock got 29% there, so trump's visit didn't really do anything to change the election results there. republicans were not able to turn out the numbers that they were hoping and counting on. and it seems if anything, the activities of donald trump over the last two months probably depressed the republican vote in the state. alisyn? >> john, we know you'll be counting all morning. thousands of votes still being counted, including in georgia's largest county. cnn's ryan young is live in dekalb county with more. what's happening there, ryan? >> we talked to voters yesterday, who told us how they were tired of all the negative ads. we saw the counting going on all through the night. last night, they stopped around 4:00 in the morning. we're told they're going to start counting again around 10:30. those workers looked exhausted a

he's got a close look and we're hearing that kelly loeffler has taken the stage and rallying supporters on the ground. jon ossoff is in his bus en route to an event and you can see senator loeffler there live and she's talking about the republican charge here really to make the case they're running against democrat incumbents that they say are socialists. they've got radical economic agendas. i think we've got peter doocy on the line. hey, peter, tells us what's going on. ♪ >> and i apologize, griff and gillian, i lost you in my ear, i want to give you a sense what's going on in this entire state, the entire political universe is descending on. jon ossoff wrapped up an event in downtown athens a few steps away from the university of georgia campus, he tried to get people to go out and knock on doors, a lot of people are home for winter break, but they want to knock on 5,000 doors. right now, they're handing out signs and bumper stickers, some pins, they also, because we're in georgia, are distributing lunch and it's barbecue. this is about as nice of a smelling campaign event as you're

and we also know that we've heard from both candidates, raphael warnock and kelly loeffler. concede the race last night. listen to what we heard from the two candidates last night. >> and so, to everyone out there struggling today, whether you voted for me or not, know this, i hear you. i see you. and every day i'm in the united states senate, i will fight for you. >> we have some work to do here. this is a game of inches. we're going to win this election. >> reporter: the other race between senator perdue and jon ossoff as you mentioned is extremely close. both campaigns saying they're feeling good. the ossoff campaign saying they think they will pull or stay ahead as more votes come in. the perdue campaign saying they will take it to court if needed to and use every legal avenue they have before giving up the race. you can tell both sides promised this race will be razor thin. both sides promised it will be a close race to the finish. and both sides delivered on that promise, kasie. >> that's for sure. it's going to be a potentially seismic shift here in washington, if we

rick, reverend warnock projected to defeat kelly loeffler. at the remaining vote there's a lot of optimism among democrats. is tonight confirmation that georgia has turned purple? and how did democrats defeat these expectations? >> yeah, this is an earthquake. and when you take this on top of the biden victory two missouris a go, you recognize this is a changing state. i think you have to look back to democrats and also opportunity. because you'd had the changing population. a vast number of new people moving into the state, a younger, more diverse electorate that is changing the face of georgia, a long-term plan hatched by stacey abrams and others over the past decade to try to get that into registration numbers. the way the democrats stitched together coalitions and got voters who didn't vote two months ago out to the polls, you recognize this is the culmination of a longstanding strategy that could have very long-lasting implications. >> mary alice, talk about those strategies, the long-term ones, also some of the other big surprises tonig

kelly loeffler talked about it.watched -- if you watched tv you saw some of these ads in georgia. >> you saw the ads. let's be clear about what happened here. we just came off a contentious presidential election in the state of georgia an inundated with the senate ads in the primary and in the general and then in a runoff as well. don't pretend as though people didn't turn that off. what they didn't turn off were their local newscasts. what they didn't turn off were the national newscasts. and if the mainstream media refused to cover these issues, it's not just about what they cover, it's about what they don't cover. and it's about how they cover it. and so when those issues don't come to the fore and the people don't get a chance to see exactly what raphael warnock is all about, exactly what john ossoff is all about, no wonder this type of thing culminates in a potential victory for both of those two men. dagen: did president trump's behavior leading up to these runoff elections hurt the turnout and hurt the enthus

george has another fantastic champion in senator kelly loeffler. incredible military here i'd so proud of our military. she supports the wall and she always stands with the heroes of law enforcement, ice and border patrol. i hated it, kelly, when we got out in from the military with trump all over it and they got thrown into a river that you solve that. they threw ballots into a river from the military with my name all over, we want trump. goes into the river. that was just one of many instances of problems. kelly is also a committed protector of your second amendment rights. with her votes we confirm our third new supreme court justice, amy coney barrett. working with david, kelly helped rescue the u.s. economy from the china virus, passing nearly $4 trillion in economic relief, saving over 1.5 million georgia jobs and rescuing countless small businesses all across your state, businesses that now are doing really well. we also came up with a vaccine. nobody else would have done that. they would have done that in ten years. kelly and david also bot

i want to start by getting your reaction to kelly loeffler. saying she too would essential le vote to invalidate the election results in multiple states presumably your state and her state of georgia. your thoughts? >> thanks so much. good to be here with you. listen, this is very disappointing. it's not at all surprising. the one good thing i can say about my opponent is she is consistent. she's consistently putting her own interest above the people she's supposed to be representing. and so, it's quite a development to be sure. but, for weeks we have been calling on loeffler to stand up for the people of georgia. to hon nour the voices of the people she wants to represent. honoring tha honoring their votes. and she's consistently refused to do that. and while this is disappointing it's surprising. georgia needs a senator not a sycophant. they need someone who understands that their job is to represent the people. kelly efrl is the unelected senator of georgia. in just a few hours the people of georgia will stand up and correct that. she was a

i want to tell you about david purdue and kelly loeffler. they have not conceded. jon ossoff hasn't spoken. raphael warnock did speak from his home. he said tonight that it proved with hope, hard work and people by his side that anything is possible. >> georgians flocked to the polls on tuesday. >> you can't complain if you don't vote. >> two elections that could shift the balance of power. >> god gave us a voice to be heard. >> cbs projects raphael warnock has beaten kelly loeffler thanks to strong support for black and young voters. >> i am going to the senate to work for all georgia. >> it is worth it for this election to last into tomorrow. we are going to make sure every vote is counted. >> the other race between david purdue and democrat jon ossoff is still in the air. most of the remaining balance come from areas that favor democrats. if both democrats win, it gives joe biden a unified congress making his leg slative agenda likely to pass. >> ossoff would become georgia's first jewish senator. warnock would be the first black senator. >> the historic moment

kelly loeffler not as popular.r as david perdue as we said has been elected to the senate. kelly loeffler was appointed by brian kemp. the governor, had never won an election in georgia and that may have hurt her. raphael warnock also fulton county, let me point it out, he is a reverend at ebenezer baptist church, martin luther king sr.'s church. deep roots which are so important. in fulton county raphael warnock got 72.4% of the vote. let me compare it in this case to david perdue to jon ossoff. you can see raphael warnock got 4,000 more votes in fulton county than jon ossoff did so you can see raphael warnock overperforming joe biden in some cases and also jon ossoff who was also running in this election so strong candidacy for him across the country. one other thing that happened yesterday, donald trump came to campaign against both democratic senators. this is the county that he went to. you look at this and say, oh, man, raphael warnock got shellacked. 29% of the vote but it wasn't really a change from what ha

hours before a rally with kelly loeffler, kelly loeffler decided to join this renegade bunch of senators who are going to object to the electoral counting process tomorrow. didn't seem to help either of them. >> look, ali, even before the election day, republicans were ceding the ground. if we lose, you know why. it's president trump. and that's because president trump spent more time attacking fellow republicans in georgia like governor brian kemp, secretary of state raffensperger than he did the incumbents than he did attacking ossoff and warnock. you saw that in the rally monday night where he spent most of the time expressing his own grievances over his falsehoods over the election defeat and very little time talking about the two incumbents. >> let's talk a little about -- perdue has put out a statement that his team seems to believe he's won the election. we are calling it too close to call right now with ossoff in the lead. but he's immediately talking about legally-cast votes and legal challenges. when you throw it around enough, people begin to believe that there are problems wi

kelly loeffler, she was in a jumbled primary with 20 other voters.ferent races in some respects. we'll see how that all plays out. >> president trump was getting out the vote at a rally in your state last night. he said he's going to campaign against your re-election in 2022 because you've been standing up for the truth against his false claims about the election. what's your response to that? >> well, that's a few years out right now and today and for this i guess next coming week our job is to button up the election, get the results out to all the georgians and make sure we can certify this race. that's my focus now, not what happens two years from now. >> okay. i want to ask you about your phone call on saturday with president trump. take a listen to what he told you in part. >> you can't let it happen and you are letting it happen. you know, i mean, i'm notifying you that you're letting it happen. so all i want to do is this. i just want to find 11,780 votes, which is one more than we have because we won the state. >> when you heard him say that

so i'm not concerned about kelly loeffler. she can call me whatever she wants.nd many of the same names she called me, called my heroes by those names. martin luther king jr. and the folks i got to know right in atlanta who work alongside, vivian, john lewis, andrew young. so i'm going to be focused on the fact that people need health care. they need covid-19 relief. i think it's interesting that kelly loeffler has been in the senate for ten months and she hasn't even bothered to make a case for why the people of georgia should elect her. she was appointed. it's clear the people of georgia are disappointed and she's sounding more and more desperate every day in her rhetoric because she's focused on herself and so here's the clear choice of people in georgia. you can help her to help herself or you can help me to help you. and i'm deeply honored that this kid who grew up in public housing, one of 12 children in my family, is now running for the u.s. senate against the wealthiest number of congress. it means that the american dream and promise is very much alive.

kelly loeffler. >> [cheers and applause]. >> where is kelly?ou have done. i will tell you about kelly. >> [chanting]. >> kelly fights for me and david fights for me. that i can tell you. i will also say the republicans you have to understand for the people that don't fight. fighting for us. we have a lot of corrupt things that happen. republicans have some difficulties. but a difficulty they don't have? they never forget. people will find that out. we have to go all the way. that's what is happening. you watch what happened over the next couple of weeks. watch what is going to come out. watch what is going to be revealed. >> [cheers and applause]. >> i have to tell you the stakes of this election could not be higher. you vote tomorrow. people want to go out. they don't want to do the ballot thing unless it's the other side. they want to go and vote. make sure your vote is counted. don't let them say i'm sorry someone else voted for you. the radical democrats are trying to capture georgia senate seats so they will have absolute power over every

has ousted kelly loeffler. democrat jon ossoff is currently 16,000 votes ahead of david purdue, but the race has not been called yet. joining us now is amy pope, u.s. jeopardy advisor to president obama. thank you for joining us. are we jumping the gun? tom is looking for by vote what we know. are we in for a recount? thisit is not clear at point. what is clear is that there is incredible turnout. this has been almost unprecedented in terms of the number of people coming out to vote. and of course it is extremely close, which does suggest that the president's interventions here has made it different but not necessarily in the way people had hoped. there has been a lot of conflict within the republican party itself, and you see the governor and the secretary of state of georgia really at odds with the president, most notably in the last couple of days with the conversations that they had about finding more votes. one has to think that has been -- that what has been playing out over the last few weeks has created

where does that leave kelly loeffler? >> he's the really in a bind here. part of it is needing to signal as strongly as she can that she's supportive of the president, her name clearly missing from the letter the republicans put out, so saying everything is on the table, we'll have to see about that and see if she weighs in before the election happens. but we have president trump out there who's saying that the election was invalid, as others have noted, and now saying that these two senators who advance, who are up again, and trying to rally republicans to turn out. we know that the thing about the republican party and particularly in this georgia race, they're counting on a big election day turnout. and i think the problem for loeffler and for perdue is that they need to be as supportive as they can of the president. but he's at the same time throwing wrenches in there, of course, blaming republican leadership for coming out and not supporting the $2,000 checks, coming out and blasting the republican governor of georgia, coming out and calling on a prima

reporter: connell, republicans on the ticket, kelly loeffler and david perdue are trying to make the arguments that democrats running for their seats, jon ossoff and rafael warnock are going to race your taxes. that is the argument coming from republicans but today we heard jon ossoff at a canvas event kicking it off encouraging his volunteers and supporters to get out, turn out the vote, telling them if they elect him to these seats, they're going to be of the ones that put that $2000 check in people's bank accounts for covid relief. >> they will try to block joe and kamala's every move just like they tried to do to president obama. we have too much good work to do. we need to get $2000 stimulus checks to the people to keep families on their feet and in their homes. we need the pass a historic jobs bill. reporter: but republicans loeffler and perdue make the argument that biden's agenda will cost americans but especially people in georgia. the committee to unleash prosperity said this about biden's economic plans, quote, we estimate over the next decade these policies will coast the

bottom line, kelly loeffler has been campaigning with a klansman kelly loeffler has been campaigningm the fact that she has been campaigning with a former member of the ku klux klan. will: that is a stunning claim. is it true? here to react army veteran and georgia native jeremy hunt. jeremy, that is a stunning claim made multiple times there obviously to peter doocy. one john jon ossoff has made may times on the campaign trail that kelly loeffler is campaigning with a klansman. as far as i can tell, jeremy. what it is is a picture no idea nothing more. >> yeah, i mean, this should be a really simple story. but, you know, it's politics. this is jon ossoff playing politics. she was not campaigning with a klansman. basically a crazy man made his way toll a loeffler event asked for a picture. she takes a ton of pictures every day. she takes a picture and upon realizing who he is, she said if i had known i would have kicked him out of the event. i had no idea. she completely condemned him. this should be a simple story. my issue is actually even a little deeper than that i'm actually ann

kelly loeffler and david perdue are standing in the way of a radical far left agenda that would actively work to strip away pretty much all of president trump's historic achievement. tonight's two races could not be any more important. as we speak, all eyes are on dekalb, fulton county, which were wrought with claims of fraud and abuse during the general election. democrats, we've been saying in the leadup to tonight, need a massive turnout in those two counties to win. seems like we're counting fulton county faster than we did on november 3rd. democrats counting on big numbers of mail in ballots, apparently a lot have already been counted. little hard to sort through it all and marred with issues

senator kelly loeffler announcing she will object to certain electoral college results.a source telling fox news that loeffl or will likely object to

here's senator kelly loeffler. >> we need georgians to get o

both of these candidates, david perdue and kelly loeffler are building estate of the art get out theorganization using lots of georgians and plenty of volunteers coming in from outside the state. finally the argument there that senator perdue laid out. the only way to rein in the excesses of the democratic whit house and the democratic house of representatives is to have a republican senate he put it right, this is the last line of defense for conservative values that we don't control. never republican majority in th u.s. senate and they're going t have as you said it clear piles to this nutty agenda, get rid o the 60 vote rule and pass every and lock in a governing democratic left majority from decades to come. >> to things. you have to give stacy abrams credit. she's built up a powerful mail in ballot force for the democrats. are the republicans ready to match that, number one. now it too, how are george is going to reacts we just found 6,000 ballots this week. and the mess that has been created down there. i think a lot of them are probably ticked off. do they feel disenfranchised

kelly loeffler on the streets sandy springs, georgia.ong time said the unincorporated sand asprings north of the city of atlanta. a lot of blue votes for the democrats come from that part of the state. back to the "new york post." headline i showed you. here is what they say. georgia's duty stop the far left from dominating congress. advance it one time. regulation will increase, a job-killing green new deal becomes a real possibility. court packing and socialized medicine to say nothing of the way united democratic front will impose identity politics of the nation and cancel offenders any way they can. >> absolutely. first they are correct. look at the people. you have a bernie sanders socialist in charge of the budget committee. who controlled the judiciary, across each gavel you go from someone who is america first to someone who has a very different perspective. then you look at the overarching things they would want to change from packing the court. getting rid of the filibuster, adding states. things that are significant structural

appeal to every conservative in georgia to go vote as early as possible, and to make sure that kelly loefflernd kelly perdue did. on taking on warnock, he's a baptist preacher, he's give speeches for a living his entire balife. he is sort of passing and i think he was sort of trapped because as you pointed out, he really is radical. he was pretty hard to disown 20 or 25 years of radicalism in the debate. but i thought she did a very nice job of just sticking to it. this is the most radical candidate ever nominated by it so i think is going to be an extraordinarily important election. i think the odds are very high my motto is very simple. we have to win by a bigger margin than stacy abrams can steal. that's flat out the reality we are dealing with. >> if you watch, it was loud and it was clear. one of the ways that they can do it, the governor says yes, we need real signature verification checking. i'm like okay, we'll fix it, but if you have the ability to call into session the legislature, he steadfastly refuses, now it's angry republican switch week can't have them angry going into this ru

he has a little bit of wind to his back compared to kelly loeffler.now it is tight. >> will check back with you again later in the hour. stick with us, stand by. we have just learned that raphael warnock has unseated senator kelly loeffler. meanwhile president trump is not giving up his fight with the presidential election. did a leak phone call days before the georgia runoff end up turning off some republican voters? we are going to debate that ne next. >> fox news election alert, the fox news projection desk predicts raphael warnock will unseat republican senator kelly loeffler giving fox news a 49 senate seat and keeping alive democratic hopes of taking control of the chamber provided that warnock democratic colleague john also defeats republican david purdue. that race not decided yet. it is still too close to call. let's go back to our panel. sean duffy. there is been something of a circular firing squad among republicans in georgia lately. president trump even calling on governor kemp to leave office, to be removed from office. all that criticis

now projecting democrat raphael warnock has won the senate runoff against incumbent republican kelly loeffler. the reverend from atlanta leads loeffler by a thin margin but it's enough to call this race. again, warnock the presumed winner. about 45 minutes ago warnock says he's proud to be georgia's first black senator. >> i am going to the senate to work for all of georgia. no matter who you cast your voted for in this election. >> we're going to win this election. we're going to save this country. >> senator loeffler there remains optimistic but again nbc news now calling that race that warnock is the winner. the other race, here are the latest numbers, also razor thin. democrat jon ossoff is trying to unseat republican david perdue. they are virtually tied. you can see that 50% for both candidates with 98% of the vote in. and also just a few minutes ago ossoff took a slight lead, this was according to nbc news. now, the democrats feel they are on the verge of sweeping both of those runoff elections in georgia. if they do sweep, the democrats would control the senate and the house. so what
