Trump, who has repeatedly and falsely insisted that he won the Peach State and the 2020 election, also urged voters to get to the polls, saying Democrats were trying to “rig” the Senate elections.
“You must go vote and vote early starting December 14. You have to do it. They cheated and they rigged our presidential election, but we will still win it. We will still win it. We’ll still win it. And they’re going to try and rig this election, too,” Trump told the crowd.
