Like all of you, I’ve been feeling so many emotions since yesterday. I tried to put my thoughts down here:
Replying to @BarackObama: Here’s my statement on today’s violence at the Capitol.
Here’s my statement on today’s violence at the Capitol.

🚨 IF YOU STILL HAVE YOUR BALLOT, YOU NEED TO RETURN IT TO YOUR NEAREST DROPOFF LOCATION BEFORE 7 PM TONIGHT 🚨
Find your drop-off location ASAP:
🚨 Hey Georgia! If you still have your mail-in ballot, return it to a drop-off location before 7 PM ET today. Find one near you at . Let's get it done! 🚨
It’s #ElectionDay in Georgia! If you’re heading to the polls today, get there before they close at 7 PM ET. If you still need to find your polling place or ballot drop-off location for your absentee ballot, go to to get started with @WhenWeAllVote.
If you live in Georgia, make sure you vote for @ReverendWarnock and @Ossoff in tomorrow’s U.S. Senate runoffs—and make sure everybody you know does the same. If you’ve already received a mail-in ballot, take it to a drop-box or vote in person at your polling place tomorrow.
Because in America, everyone’s voice matters. And that’s still the truth, no matter what some folks want you to believe.
These runoffs will decide whether President-Elect Biden has a Senate that will work with him rather than just obstruct him at every turn.
So if Georgians elect @ReverendWarnock and @Ossoff, we’ll take another step toward cleaning up the mess of the past four years. And we’ll send a message to any politician who puts themselves and their ambition above our system of self-government.
Tomorrow’s runoffs in Georgia will decide whether the U.S. Senate is run by those who’ve shown their willingness to tear down our democracy—or whether it’ll be run by those who will actually get to work on the monumental challenges before us.
And this is just unconscionable at a time when a staggering number of Americans are dying every day from a virus that was downplayed for far too long. It’s unconscionable to focus on overturning an election rather than helping struggling families or distributing a vaccine.
This is why we can’t just vote for President and think that our job is done.
Your vote is your voice. It’s your power. And right now, from the President of the United States on down, we’re seeing and hearing just how desperate some are to take that power away. They want us to believe that their pride is more important than our democracy.

Tomorrow’s the last day to vote in the Georgia runoffs for the U.S. Senate and it couldn’t be more important that you make your voice heard.

For many Georgia voters, December 30th is the last day to vote early in-person in the historic U.S. Senate runoff elections.
Georgia, make a plan to cast your ballot in-person before the end of the year:
Georgia, it’s not too late to join the more than two million people who’ve voted early in the runoff election for the U.S. Senate. Go to to find an early polling location and make sure your friends and family have a plan to vote.
Wishing you light, love, and wonder during this holiday season. May the coming year bring us all joy and peace.
