Georgia state Rep. Vernon Jones, a lifelong Democrat who is a supporter of President Donald Trump, on Jan. 2 called on voters to back Sens. David Perdue (R-Ga.) and Kelly Loeffler (R-Ga.) in this week’s crucial U.S. Senate runoffs that may determine control of the upper chamber, saying that there is “so much at stake” for the country.

“All minds are on Georgia right now. We have to hold the line here … on funding police to make sure that defunding doesn’t take place, on keeping socialism from coming in our communities, and to make sure that our kids have an opportunity to have school choice right now. As you know, many of our children are trapped in failed schools based on Democratic policies,” Jones told NTD News. “There’s so much at stake.”
