Abrams‐Raphael Warnock: Follow the Money  
Ma Dukes Southern Cookin ‐ 1530 Rocky Creek Rd Macon, GA 31206 

Company: Ma Dukes Southern Cookin LLC ‐ A Georgia registered LLC 

Owner: Teresa Cohen  

On or around Jan 1, 2021, Mrs. Cohen spoke of and displayed a check that she said she received from 
Stacy Abrams. “James” was the person to whom the check was shown. James’ relationship with Ms. 
Cohen is as a fill in cook and all‐around helper when Ms. Cohen needs assistance.  

Ms. Cohen stated that she also received a $10,000 direct deposit in addition to the $44,000 check; a 
total of $54,000 to supposedly provide meals in conjunction with Senatorial Run Off Candidate Raphael 
Warnock’s campaign stop in Macon, GA. It is unclear if the additional $10,000 was gratuity 
renumeration for something else.  

James found this curious for a number of reasons as listed below:  

 Based on per plate pricing taken from Ma Dukes published menu prices (Average Entrée Price 
$10.00) accounting for large beverages ($2.25) and dessert for all (avg $3.35); total per person 
charge of $15.58. If there were no other charges or surcharges assessed, Ma Duke’s would have 
to feed 2,824 people to justify that cost.  
 If the fee was based off feeding just 700 people (a figure that may have been mentioned by 
James) that would equate to a per plate charge of $62.85. 
 Furthermore, James WAS NOT asked to help out with this gargantuan undertaking for this small 
restaurant with a tiny kitchen.  
 It is unknown where these meals were supposedly served  
 It is unknown specifically who was being served these meals 
 What is known, is these numbers don’t make any sense what’s so ever 

Why was Ms. Cohen paid in total $54,000? 

Something is rotten in Bibb County and it involves Stacy Abrams, Raphael Warnock and Teresa Cohen.

1/5/2021 Senate candidate Raphael Warnock hits the road four days ahead of Jan. 5 | WRBL

COLUMBUS, Ga. (WRBL) – Four days away from the Jan. 5 runoff election,
60°
candidates are hitting the campaign trail harder than ever.

Senate candidate Rev. Raphael Warnock kicked off his nal days of campaigning by
hitting three West Georgia towns. He started his day in LaGrange, then moved to
Columbus before ending with a last stop in Macon.

Despite torrential downpours, his supporters showed up, masks on, umbrellas and
cellphones out ready to rally around Warnock and his nal campaign efforts.

Candidate Warnock emphasized how crucial the next four days are for Georgia. He
told cheering and honking supporters that even if they’ve already voted, their work
is not even close to over.

Reverend Warnock urged supporters to get everyone around them, everyone they
know to head to the polls on Jan. 5.

“It’s hard to overstate the importance of this election uhh we need folks to show up
not for me as much as for themselves,” Warnock said. “If we don’t win these two
seats we’re going to see gridlock, obstruction and dysfunction at a time when we
can least afford it.”

Warnock’s visits to LaGrange, Columbus, and Macon were the rst three of eight
planned drive-in rallies the candidate will hold leading up to the nal runoff vote.

He will head to Valdosta and Albany Saturday, Savannah on Sunday, Augusta on

Monday morning and will end in Atlanta for a drive -n rally with Jon Ossoff and
President-elect Joe Biden.

Notice of Intent to Administratively Dissolve

In accordance with Title 14 of the Official Code of Georgia Annotated, the Secretary of State hereby gives notice of determination that one
or more statutory grounds exist for dissolving this entity for its failure to deliver its annual registration, together with all required fees and
penalties, within 60 days after it was due, and/or having been without a registered agent or registered office in this state for 60 days or
more. The Secretary of State shall administratively dissolve the entity unless it corrects each ground for dissolution, including payment in
full of all required fees and penalties, or demonstrates to the reasonable satisfaction of the Secretary of State that each determined ground
does not exist within sixty (60) days of the mailing of this Notice.

The above-stated grounds for administrative dissolution may be corrected by filing an annual registration for the entity. For faster
processing, we invite you to file your annual registration online with a credit card at http://ecorp.sos.ga.gov. You may also print

If you choose to file by mail, you must send in an annual registration form printed from the website indicated above. Please mail your
completed annual registration form to the following address: Office of Secretary of State, Annual Registration Filings, 2 Martin
