This message I have seen repeatedly within the last few hours. Even trusted people like attorney Ron Coleman.
Saddle up boys and girls. Time to do your part. Twice as hard.
House of Representatives leadership. These people urgently need convincing. House leadership is against a special session.
Contact House leadership
A complete list of all Georgia representatives can be found here (if you go through this, only focus on republicans).
You may not be able to reach their proper voicemail box during after hours (it might just go to a general directory). If so, call back tomorrow. You can always send an email too.
The senate is another place to contact:
People living in Georgia can also use this tool to find their exact state reps and senators.
Title. Georgia only needs 15% of voters to sign a petition to initiate a recall election for the Governor or the Secretary of State. So why not use this runoff election on January 5th as a way to also get signatures for a recall election? Do you really think there aren't 15% of Trump supporters who would love to see these two RINOs removed from office? Or even butthurt Stacey Abrams supporters? Kemp and Raffensperger have no supporters at all. Everybody hates them.
Them knowing this is going to happen will encourage Kemp to call for a special session of congress to investigate voter fraud, and might even encourage Raffensperger to do a proper signature/envelope audit and verification. The prospect of a potential recall election, which they stand a good chance of actually losing, should put some fire underneath their feet.
And if not, we'll remove both their asses out of office, without a single fuck being given. I don't care who replaces them. Fuck them both.
To be clear, these petitions will not remove them from office. They will initiate a recall election in which voters will get to decide in a few months whether to remove them or not.
More info (important):
-
Signature gatherers can't be within 150 feet of polling places on election day. They can be nearly any other public place (like grocery stores). Heck, we could even do it at a Trump rally.
-
No recall petition can have more than one person to be removed at a time (we'd need two petitions).
The provisions for a recall election are laid out in Title 21, Section 4 of the Georgia Code. The prescribed process is complex, lengthy, and difficult, by design. We must do the following:
-
Formally request a recall petition application from the Secretary of State, at which point we will have 15 days to collect the signatures of at least 100 “sponsors” for the application to move forward.
-
If that form is accepted, then we can begin circulating the recall petition, at which point we will have 90 days to collect the requisite number of signatures from across the state.
-
Once we’ve collected enough signatures on the petition, it will be submitted and the Secretary of State will have 30 days to determine if enough of the signatures are valid
-
After clearing the approval process, the Secretary of State will have 10 days to set a date for the recall election, which must be between 30-45 days after the petition is verified.
-
Then, we vote them out of office.
-
We would need signatures from approximately 1,035,000 people. Of those signatures, at least 1/15 of them (approximately 70,000) must come from each of Georgia’s fourteen congressional districts. The petition would not be ready to sign until the formal application had been submitted and found to be "legally sufficient" by elections officials and/or a judge. No online petitions could be used. The only way a legally recognized petition can be signed is in person, in the county where they live.
-
No person other than an elector of the electoral district of the officer sought to be recalled can circulate a recall petition.
-
If we fail to collect the needed number of signatures and there are no concurrent recall efforts, the Governor and Secretary of State would not be eligible for another recall for 6 months.
Note 1: There is a website out there called https://recallgovkemp.com/, but they appear to be democrat supporters. I would avoid trying to go through them, because they wouldn't want to do anything right now that could help Trump. So we would need to do this on our own. They do have a helpful FAQ section, though.
Note 2: The same Georgia recall law allows for removal of local elected officials too, with less stringent requirements (although note: "No application for a recall petition may be filed during the first 180 days or during the last 180 days of the term of office of any public official subject to recall").
Note 3: I am not a Georgia resident, so we need our Georgia pedes to help on this.
Full Georgia law code on this process. It's not that long, surprisingly:

Senator Doug Mastriano is attempting today to get enough support to pass a resolution that would enable Pennsylvania to exercise their constitutional authority to seat the electors themselves and decide which electors to send to DC to vote for president. But enough of his colleagues need to support it in order for it to pass.
CALL THEM AND EMAIL!!! (PREFERABLY CALL). LET THEM KNOW HOW YOU FEEL. DEMAND THEY DO THIS. IF THEY DON'T, DEMAND TO KNOW WHY.
IF THEIR VOICEMAIL IS FULL, EMAIL THEM, AND THEN CALL BACK LATER.

Doug Mastriano was on War Room this morning in case you missed it. The PA senate leadership was dragging their feet and Doug said we needed to contact the legislature:

And remember: Even if the resolution is introduced and passes, enough republicans in both houses are going to have to flip to supporting Trump electors, not Biden. Remember how weak-kneed they are!
