ATLANTA — Sen. Raphael Warnock’s reelection sparked social media posts from around the country thanking Georgia for solidifying the Democratic majority in the U.S. Senate, thanking Stacey Abrams for her get-out-the-vote initiatives and DeKalb County for its 87% support of Warnock.
Should some of that gratitude go to Georgia students?
“Yes, there should be a ‘Thank you, young Georgia,’” said Clark Atlanta University sophomore Jayden Williams, who, as president of the Georgia NAACP Youth and College Division, helped drive student turnout. “But we don’t need a divided Georgia. We need a one Georgia, so saying, ‘Thank you, Georgia’ should hit every age group.”
