Dear Governor Kemp,

Call a special session of the Georgia Legislature. Since November 3, we have heard repeatedly “there is no credible evidence” of widespread fraud that would change the outcome of the election.

What is the basis for that statement? Has there been a court case that actually ruled on the factual claims?

President Trump contested the election with a 64 page petition plus thousands of exhibits. His case sits languishing in Fulton County.

Just one of his numerous challenges claims that 10,315 individuals were deceased but voted. Of those, 8,718 had died before their ballot was received by a county election office.

Yet we hear unsubstantiated and outlandish statements of “no credible evidence.” What do they need to do, exhume the bodies and stack the caskets in the rotunda of the state capitol?

Two veteran Fulton County election officers, Suzi Voyles and Bridget Thorne, testified to a State Senate committee about lack of ballot custody and highly suspicious absentee ballots. In response, Fulton county fired them. What does that tell you about November 3 and the upcoming runoff on January 5?

Georgia law assigns electors to the winner of the Presidential election; however, that assignment is based on the common sense premise of a sound and fair election. The growing mountain of evidence demonstrates that this was anything but a sound and fair election.

For the Presidential election, the state legislature is the only branch specified in the United States Constitution to appoint electors for President. The Legislative branch can make determinations of fact and act as necessary.

The Legislative branch is the only branch thus far that has made any attempt to examine the facts surrounding the election. The Legislative branch has every right to be, and should be, involved in getting to the truth.

We are facing an unprecedented time in the life of our nation. Georgia is at the center.

There are legal opinions on all sides regarding what could happen or might happen. There is no question, however, about your authority to call a special session of the legislature.

You should call the Legislature into session. If any disagree, let them take Georgia to court.

I am sick of the hand-wringing and finger pointing while doing nothing. You have the authority and, I will contend, the responsibility to engage the Legislature in this matter.

The ball is in your court. You are the only one who can take the shot. Call a special session.

Two years ago, we watched commercials of a candidate who wanted to be Georgia’s governor. That candidate, as he sat in his pickup truck, spoke plainly about various issues of concern to Georgians.

He promised to “keep choppin” burdensome, authoritarian, unaccountable, and corrupted government. At the end of those commercials, he looked directly into the eyes of Georgians and said “Yeah, I said that.”

Today, more than ever, Georgia, and our nation, needs that man. Like Esther, you have been put here for such a time as this.

Call a special session.

It is time for the man I trust and I voted for to call a press conference and call the legislature into a special session. Then, I want to see him look directly into the eyes of Georgians, Americans, and especially those who are out to destroy our nation, and say, “Yeah, I said that!”

Respectfully
Your Friend,
