ALSO— After reporting on Mike Collins convoy captains surfaced, Ossoff also calls on Collins to disband the “convoy captain” program “so that nobody with Klan ties or who's been convicted of crimes against children is knocking on doors or getting out the vote.”
.@Ossoff in Stonecrest, Ga. talking about “our crook president”: “He adorns his office in gold. He builds monuments to himself while he imposes suffering on the American people. It’s a disgrace. And now our moment is at hand, to speak with one united voice, and say enough is enough.”

Just in: GOP nominee for governor Rick Jackson will *not* be attending Donald Trump’s rally in Macon on Saturday. His campaign said he will “be serving as a force multiplier and rallying Republicans in Cherokee County to turnout.” #gapol
