Brian Kemp: Call off Georgia runoff election; it's a scam

Trump demanded that Georgia "call off" its upcoming runoff elections over his claims of fraud. Trump angrily urged Republican Gov. Brian Kemp to "do something" about absentee votes that are expected to be cast predominantly by Democrats in the pair of make-or-break Senate contests. "You allowed your state to be scammed," Trump warned Kemp on Twitter. "Call off election. It won't be needed. We will all WIN!" Trump tweeted. [No evidence was ever found to support this claim--Ed.].

Wendy Long: Clerked for Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas

Long formally announced her candidacy with an online video. She is expected to formally receive the state GOP nomination during a meeting of party leaders in Buffalo. Long, a lawyer who once clerked for Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, is expected to also receive the state Conservative Party endorsement.

Her introduction video includes snippets of Bernie Sanders and Donald Trump while she declares "this is an election year unlike any we've ever seen before." Then cutting to black-and-white pictures of Schumer with Hillary Clinton, Long continues that "we the people are standing up against the politics of the status quo and against the corruption and cronyism of career politicians in Washington."
