The former president appeared alongside Georgia Democratic candidates Jon Ossoff and Raphael Warnock in a virtual get-out-the-vote really on Friday afternoon. They were joined by voting rights activist and former gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams and Congresswoman-elect Nikema Williams.
"You are now once again the center of our civic universe because the special election in Georgia is going to determine, ultimately, the course of the Biden presidency and whether Joe Biden and Kamala Harris can deliver legislatively all of the commitments they've made," Obama said of Georgia.
The former president added: "The Senate is a place where even with a big majority it's tough to get legislation through and if you don't have a majority, if the Senate is controlled by Republicans who are interested in obstruction and gridlock rather than progress and helping people, they can block just about anything.
