[0:00] Joining us now is Bloomberg congressional reporter Erik Wasson, and we've also got Jessica Taylor. She's
[0:04] the senate and governor's editor for Cook Political Report. But, Erik, we're gonna start with you
[0:08] because you've been hanging out in the ATL going to these dueling rallies. We heard those
[0:14] words from Oslo. How do Georgia voters feel about his messaging? He also spoke a lot
[0:19] about the civil rights movement and talking about the messaging coming from the president before him
[0:24] visiting that location versus what Democrats are trying to, remind voters as they campaign and as
[0:29] people go to the polls.
[0:31] Yeah. The most notable thing from the the Trump rally in Dalton was really he repeating,
[0:35] his claims that the twenty twenty election was rigged, that Aussoff is not legitimately elected senator
[0:40] and and warning of potential problems, again here in Georgia. That has lot of people nervous
[0:46] that there's gonna be a federal interference. The sort of MAGA controlled, state election board asked
[0:51] the justice department, homeland security department to interfere with the election. So far, they've been silent.
[0:56] O'Ssef and his rally really is using that... Those comments to try to motivate voters to
[1:00] to come out and vote early. There's a huge giant banner that said, you know, Georgia
[1:04] votes early. As you mentioned, there's been record turnout. So he's trying to to sort of
[1:08] motivate voters, link it up with the civil rights movement, and say, know, how dare you,
[1:12] come to the home of the civil rights movement
