within georgia law. and they were rattling off these things that don't exist, some of these statutes are different from state to say. and obviously as you know, we kept hearing about them, and kept looking at them, we kept saying while these laws in georgia are very solid protective lines around the voting process. >> well that's exactly right, and there's a reason why it's so important that there are state level laws like this. obviously in our federal system of government, the federal law is what it is. there are powerful bases, compelling bases, for the justice department to investigate a significant amount of what happened surrounding the 2020 presidential election, and obviously there's a select committee in the house that's doing that to. but under our constitutional system, states actually have the primary role. in carrying out presidential elections. the federal government hardly has much of a role at all. and it's really congress, not the president that has a role. mainly certifying the electora

but first, let's go to perry, georgia, with joe johns. joe, you are a veteran of many of these rallies. tell me what you're seeing on the ground right now. what the general atmosphere is like in perry. >> well, you know, it's kind of typical and this is sort of big lie centralville, if you think about it because georgia's so much the epicenter of the controversy around the election with the secretary of state who trump told to find almost 12,000 votes to overturn the election in the state. take a look at this crowd and it will give you a flavor. as i was coming in today, i talked to people, all of whom believe it was trump who run the election here in georgia even though joe biden was the clear winner. one of the things we see, and you just mentioned at the top, was a bunch of signs for herschel walker. he is the favorite son football player who's decided at the behest of donald trump so run for the senate. he hopes to challenge rafael warnock who won last time around. he would have to get through a primary to do that. one of the big ques

you've been talking to a lot of republicans in georgia or with connections to georgia. what is so clear is that they are kind of freaking out, but they're doing it very quietly. >> that's right. nobody was surprised this is how donald trump feels about brian kemp. he has been saying that publicly for months. what shocked them, and that's the word they used, shocked, was the way he went out and basically endorsed stacey abrams. now, yeeou know, in republican eyes, kemp isn't perfect but they like him in georgia among republicans. stacey abrams is enemy number one for the gop. this surprised and shocked a lot of people, that he would say that. it gave them flashbacks to january 5th. the two special election run-offs, where after months and weeks of donald trump saying, you know, the voting is rigged, republicans lost those seats. that's what they're worried about in the midterms. they have a chance to hold on to a governor seat in a 50/50 state. win back a seat held currently by a democrat. the midterms are going to be good for republicans, they think. biden is in trouble

from the brookings institution co-authored by six lawyers is entitled fulton county, georgia's trump investigation. over 50 pages of the report analyzes the potential crimes donald trump may have committed in his interference of the presidential vote count in georgia, especially his hour-long phone call with georgia's secretary of state brad raffensperger, which secretary raffensperger recorded and released to the news media the report says we conclude that trump's post-election conduct in georgia leaves him at substantial risk of possible state charges predicated on multiple crimes. these charges potentially include criminal solicitation to commit election fraud, intentional interference with performance of election duties, conspiracy to commit election fraud, criminal solicitation, and state rico violations. here is what donald trump said in georgia on saturday about g's straight brad raffensperger, whose recorded phone call of donald trump could be the smoking gun evidence that makes donald trump a convicted felon in georgia >> there is something wrong with this guy your secretary

in fact, in georgia, just the state of georgia alone, they have performed three recounts and numerous investigations. so not only is the letter baseless, but it again shows that trump doesn't care at all about the rule of law. in fact, he refers to joe biden as an illegitimate president. now, there is already an ongoing criminal investigation into trufrm's earlier attempts to pressure raffensperger to overturn the election. if you don't remember why, you may want to refresh your memory. .partly because of this call. >> all i want to do is this. i just want to find 11,780 votes, which is one more than we have, because we won the state. >> no, he did not win the state. outfront now, the republican secretary of state of georgia, brad raffensperger, who is also the author of an upcoming book about the election and what he went through in standing up to trump for the facts on the vote. his book is called "integrity counts." secretary raffensperger, i appreciate your time talking to you about this. this the first time you're commenting on this new letter from the president, in which he refe

you've got a lot of support throughout georgia. as we look at that, tell us what your priorities are right now. what is the main platform that you're running on and what do you want to change once you get that seat in the senate? >> well, you know, first of all, i think the main platform is bring some integrity, bring honesty to the country torques the state of georgia, because i believe in the goals that should be goals that everyone believes in, that everyone should have law and a order for all people, not just for certain people, but for all people. i believe in supporting our military which is what we should do. i believe in border control, you know, we've got to have border control. those are things that we should all be believing in, not just certain group or of anyone like that and i believe in school of course. choice. i believe everyone should have school of choice, education for our kids. it seems like the left doesn't believe in that. they believeli in separation and that's something that i do not believe in. i don't bel

georgia was one of them. how does that make you feel that there was a written down plan from a lawyer to discard the votes in your state? >> well, we held the line here. we made sure we had a fair and honest election and i followed the constitution. i stood on the line and others stood for the constitution also. it's a challenging day in america. >> last week you got another letter from the former president of the united states asking all still at this point to decertify the georgia election results. how important is it to stand up and publicly say no to him. you have a book about this. >> well, i look at his letter as a plea for attention. he knows he's lost. he's been told that multiple times by a lot of people. but at the end of the day, that information that he talked about, we opened up an investigation. lots of investigations go on. once we have our findings, we report those to the state election board for final disposition. the fact is president trump did not carry the state of georgia. >> that will be
