Georgia voters in the runoff elections will determine control of the US Senate. Many are confident that the votes will be counted accurately, according to CNN. That is a sharp contrast with the 3/4th who say the election in November was conducted fairly. These views are sharply divided by party, which is not much of a surprise. Both Republican candidates for Senate have expressed support for rejecting Electoral College votes. President-elect Joe Biden won by fewer than 12,000 votes in Georgia.
