70 million leagal , of age registered voters is a formidable  group!
I'm not tech or internet  savvy, does anyone know of a way to text , email or otherwise bombard news media, congressmen,  supremecourt ect.... ect... to do our part in seeing we have a fair deal and getting our voice heard?
Be happy to email , sign or text 4 times a day.

Charly,
Contacting the media is an exercise in futility. Don't waste your time.

Your representatives are easily looked up with an online search as are all of them. There will be contact info so you can email, call, or snail mail.
In my experience, a call to YOUR rep is the most effective. You might actually get lucky and get to talk to them. Be polite yet firm telling them your concerns and expectations. Don't forget to thank them for listening.
Contacting those who aren't your reps will have varying results.

Your immediate concern in Georgia may be the Senatoral run offs in January.
If the Republicans loose those seats and control of the Senate get ready for the pucker factor. Clinton had 2 years of that and we were able to fight it off for 2 years until the next election for representatives. We were able to take back control of the house and get some breathing room.
If the runoffs happen in Georgia, and it looks likely, you need to get everyone you can to go vote Republican. One party in control; house, Senate, and white house; can make for hard feelings and a hard future. We may no longer play outlaws but actually be outlaws. This nation has gone down that road before and over 100 years later there are still hard feelings around.

Stay on people about voting in the runoff. If they aren't registered to vote get them registered if you think they'll vote our way. ;)
I don't know about voter registration in Georgia but in Tennessee I used to carry the registration form with me and when in gun shops and other places would offer to register people. I kept the forms and turned them in myself to make sure they got registered. Before one election I registered 85 new voters.

At all the shoots you go to in Georgia get people registered and stay on them to VOTE!

You can make a difference there.

If you can get one, two, or more to do the same across the state it can be done but your time is short. January isn't far away.

Georgia may turn out to be the saving grace for this election or our downfall.


Georgia may
