Reached for comment earlier this afternoon, Hamadeh exclusively told the Globe, “Now is the time for us Republicans to unite behind strong leaders who are willing to fight for the American people. Kari Lake has continuously shown that’s what her message is about, and that’s what her spirit is about.

We have to get behind a candidate who’ll fight like hell for us.”…

Regarding the Georgia Senate and Special Senate Runoff Elections of 2021:
“@OpenModelProj: And the top pollsters appear to be @TargozR
and @adamhgeller
Each nailed one race exactly and was a point off on the other.
axios.com/republican-poll-shows-statistical-tie-in-georgia-7c817124-5c12-40a5-a170-2db1bd105209.html https://pollsmartmr.com/latest-polls-1”
The Democratic and Republican Senate candidates in Georgia are in a statistical tie heading into Tuesday's pair of runoff elections, according to a new poll conducted for a Republican super PAC.
Why it matters: In both elections, Democrats pulled ahead in early voting, putting pressure on Republicans to increase their turnout on Election Day to catch up. The tie poll suggests a jump ball in the races between Republicans David Perdue and Kelly Loeffler and Democrats Jon Ossoff and Raphael Warnock.
By the numbers: The Preserve America poll, conducted by Adam Geller, surveyed 500 likely voters over the weekend and included both cellphones and landlines. The survey had a margin of error of ±4.38 percentage points.
Perdue had 45% of the vote to Ossoff's 46%.
Loeffler also had 45% to Warnock's 46%.
The intrigue: The poll cast in stark relief how Democrats have banked early support: Some 54% of respondents said they had already returned their ballots....

Trump improved his vote share across the country, starting with conservative areas but extending into deeply Democratic states.
It is a critical part of the story of this election: one where Trump built a broader coalition and led on two defining issues of the campaign.
