(Middle East Eye) Ahead of the consequential US Senate race in Georgia next month, Muslim organisers and community members in the state are coming together to mobilise Muslims to vote for the upcoming election, which will decide which political party will have a majority in the Congress.
On Sunday, the Georgia Muslim Voter Project (GMVP) and the Council [on] American-Islamic Relations’ (CAIR) Georgia chapter hosted an online event on Muslim voter engagement in the state, bringing together elected officials and religious leaders to talk about the importance of the Senate race.
Early voting began for the election on Monday, where Democratic candidates Raphael Warnock and Jon [Ossoff] face Republicans Kelly Loeffler and David Perdue.
