Jon Ossoff has challenged Sen. David Perdue to three live televised debates before their January 5, 2021 runoff election.
“Our country continues to face great challenges—acute public health and economic crises, persistent economic hardship for working families, unequal justice under the law, deep political divisions, and widespread corruption in our political system,” Ossoff wrote in a letter to Perdue. “We also face great opportunities, especially if we unite to build a republic that lives up to our shared national ideals.
“Georgians deserve to hear their candidates for U.S. Senate debate these issues publicly.”
Control of the Senate is on the line. Can you chip in $3 each to Jon Ossoff and Raphael Warnock?
Ossoff has to know that the chances of Perdue agreeing to this are very slim, given that Perdue skipped the last debate before the November election, following Ossoff's dominant performance in the previous debate. But it’s a question Perdue will have to answer, at a time when he doesn't seem eager to take questions at all.
If you live in Georgia, register to vote now and share that link with your family and friends in the state. The deadline is Dec. 7.
