GOOGLE'S BLOGGER IS TRASH!

With the Blogger interface, it is getting harder to make blog posts. I am not kidding.

The way they rolled this interface out maybe the death knell for the once beloved media platform.

I am not going to lie, this is frustrating and I am going to make my postings shorter and quicker now.

The Atlanta reverend of Ebenezer Baptist Church defeats Republican senator.

Sen. Kelly Loeffler (R-GA) was defeated by Raphael Warnock in a highly watched run off.

Sen-Elect Warnock (D-GA) will be the first African American senator from the state of Georgia. He will join Sen. Cory Booker (D-NJ) and Sen. Tim Scott (R-SC) in a club that rarely has Black elected senators.

As of right now, the Democrats have 49 seats and the state is waiting on the results of the run off between Sen. David Perdue (R-GA) and Jon Ossoff.

Loeffler has not conceded nor she will support the electoral college count favoring Joe Biden and Kamala Harris as the President and Vice President of the United States.

The exit polls show that economic hardship, racial tensions and gridlock in Congress as factors to Loeffler's loss. The Republican controlled Senate allowed the calls for more economic relief go down in flames.

Sen. Kelly Loeffler (R-GA) is not conceding.

It did not help much with President Donald J. Trump complaining about the election results and calling Georgia's Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger. That call will open a federal probe into the president.

Loeffler was appointed by Gov. Brian Kemp to replace Johnny Isakson. It riled up Republicans because they believe that Doug Collins would have been the better choice for the seat. He was defeated in the election to be the runoff nominee.

Loeffler is part owner of the Atlanta Dream, a WNBA franchise. She faced scrutiny last February when it was revealed that she and eight senators dumped their stock after they got word of the coronavirus pandemic spreading in the United States. Her team wants her to dissolve her role as an owner. 

Loeffler made mistakes by appearing with a white nationalist and flip flopping on the economic relief.

Warnock had proceeded over the funeral for John Lewis in 2020.

The shootings of Ahmaud Arbery and Rayshard Brooks have sparked tensions with Black people and law enforcement. To allow white extremists to wear badges and guns shoot Black people dead will be our wake up call for reform.

Warnock will be up for reelection in 2022. 

In the meantime, we celebrate the victory of Raphael Warnock, a huge victory for African Americans. Of course, Kamala Harris and Barack Obama are history in the making.
