Counting primaries, general elections, and runoffs Reverend Senator Raphael Warnock has faced the voters of Georgia five times each time winning the most votes. 

Jon Ossoff and Raphael Warnock and are the first Democrats elected to the U.S. Senate from Georgia since Zell Miller in 2000. 

Warnock is the first African American to represent Georgia in the Senate, the first Black Democratic U.S. senator elected in the South, since reconstruction and the first Black Democrat to be elected to the Senate by a former state of the Confederacy.

1st Corinthians 9:24 reminds us that in a race all runners run, but only one gets the prize.  On Tuesday Raphael Warnock will complete in the last lap of his latest race. Running against a walker that was at one time a great runner.   

1st Corinthians 9:24 further reminds us that we are to run in such a way as to get the prize.  Reverend Warnock has run not only to gain the prize he has run in such a way that his superior competence, capability, and character are on full display versus that walker that used to be a runner.  

Tuesday’s runoff election day voting will be the last lap in the race for us as well. If we are to win the prize, we must vote.  If you have voted early thank you. If have not well Tuesday is your last opportunity to finish the last lap.  Remember 1st Corinthians 9:24 reminds us that in a race all runners run, in a race all runners compete, but in the race only one runner gets the prize. On Tuesday, let’s race, On Tuesday let’s run, On Tuesday let’s win the prize.

Democrats will be in control of both houses of Congress, and the White House, after Joe Biden is inaugurated on January 20th and Georgia’s two new United States Senators, Jon Ossoff and Raphael Warnock, take their seats later this month.

Republicans have suffered a number of electoral setbacks—not only did they lose control of the White House, but they’ll be in the minority in both houses of Congress for the first time in a decade.

Looking ahead, Republicans will need to remain united to defeat efforts to move policy in America further to the progressive left. And they’ll need to present a compelling vision for what they’ll do if given the opportunity to govern again. The conservative movement has traditionally stood for economic opportunity, personal freedom, a strong national defense, and the value of human life. These are values that many of our fellow Americans share and should be the backbone of efforts by conservatives to lead, once again.

The President's incitement of a riot at the Capitol and Democrats taking control of the Senate are discussed. What should Joe Biden's priorities be upon taking office and what can he realistically achieve?

In Beach Talk #16, Ken and Carla find themselves next to a natural gas fire pit on the deck of a decadent house in Newport Beach overlooking the blue Pacific. They review a wonderful/terrible week in the headlines - Presidential conversations with the Georgia Secretary of State, the run-off election that resulted in the Wornach and Ossoff victories, and then the day (Wednesday, January 6, 2021) that will "live in infamy," first on the floor of Congress in joint session to count electoral votes and then the reckless storming of the Capitol building of flag-waving, red hats, toting Bibles in a failed attempt to thwart the will of the people with force. Ken ends the podcast with a reflection on calls for the President to step down - voluntarily or involuntarily - and the role of evangelicals, their scapegoating of Antifa, and their fixation on "the Trump victory," on the day's events.

I dive into the details of the Georgia Senate runoff elections with my friend and public policy lawyer with Squire Patton Boggs, Amol Naik.

Amol served as the Chief Resilience Officer for the City of Atlanta, where he reported directly to Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms and served as a member of her Cabinet, with responsibility for Atlanta’s efforts on sustainability, diversity and inclusion, and smart cities technology.  Prior to joining the administration, Amol served on the Mayor’s Transition team, leading its efforts on ethics and transparency reform.

Additionally, Amol was a Mayoral appointee to the Atlanta Regional Commission. The Atlanta Business Chronicle has selected him as a 40 under 40 honoree, and the Daily Report designated him as one of the top 10 lawyers under 40 in Georgia.

From basic questions about the Senate races in Georgia to his insight into election laws and his experience recounting votes, we talk about it all. He discusses the candidates in more detail, how each party has positioned itself, and what effect "Trumpism" will have on this election.

A story of Kolbi's interaction with two people digs into that and how we all should start making our political decisions.
