GOP gerrymandered Ossoff’s district to disenfranchise Black voters

At a GOP breakfast on the district’s eastern DeKalb outskirts, state Sen. Fran Millar criticized Democrats who think it’s a “done deal that this kid’s going to become the Congressman.”

“I’ll be very blunt: These lines were not drawn to get Hank Johnson’s protégé to be my representative. And you didn’t hear that,” said Millar. “They were not drawn for that purpose, OK? They were not drawn for that purpose.”

Millar, a Dunwoody Republican, has endorsed former state Sen. Dan Moody in the race.

Hint: Rep. Hank Johnson (D-GA), is black.

Hmm, nothing in the article you linked to that supports your contention that blacks are being disenfranchised by GOP gerrymandering.

I think Ossoff will win because the competition is worthless. The leading GOP contender is trying to straddle the fence in his attempt to appeal to everyone. People understand that if you don't have a solid platform to stand up for, you don't have enough gusto to be a leader. People want Representatives, not placeholders.
