Hollywood celebrity Chelsea Handler has helped Georgia Democrat Jon Ossoff reach record fundraising levels with her contributions, but she doesn't even know when the election is.
Handler demonstrated this Tuesday when she invited her nearly seven million Twitter followers to get out and vote for Ossoff—even though the election isn't taking place until next week on April 18.
Special elections today in Georgia. Vote for @JonOssoff in Georgia. He's our man.
— Chelsea Handler (@chelseahandler) April 11, 2017
The errant message likely didn't cause too much confusion for southern voters in Georgia, who appear less energized about next week's election than residents of liberal bastions like Hollywood. Ninety-five percent of contributions to Ossoff's campaign—including $2,700 from Handler—have come from sources outside of Georgia.
Handler's sudden interest in the Southern election comes a year after she revealed in an interview with NBC's Matt Lauer that she associates racism with "really like dumb … people from the South."
Handler is far from the only Hollywood celebrity who has taken an interest in the 30-year-old former congressional staffer and investigative filmmaker for Al Jazeera.

This dumb bitch will bring out more Republican voters.
“Like, y’know, totally vote or something, K?”.
who?
Do it again.
Ex: Don't forget to get to the polls November 10, 2016. It's never been more important!
Doubt if the good people down in Georgia need some Hollywood half-wit telling them how to vote.
All this out of state money, Hollywood meddling, and liberal media fist pumping will bring out Republicans.
Ninety-five percent of contributions to Ossoff’s campaign—including $2,700 from Handler—have come from sources outside of Georgia.
If there is a GOP nominee in the run-off (and I’m presuming there will be), they’d be spectacularly dumb not to tell voters about all this outside money commin in for Ossoff.
Chelsea always seems in need of a shower, or a comfortable restraint.
Yes she has.
If I had a mug like that, I wouldn’t be taking “selfies”.
She must’ve been drunk again.
VOTE FOR JUDSON HILL!
This shakes my faith that Hollywood Clebs are smarter than the rest of us./s
Or, perhaps, drunk still.
I have never in all my life seen more cash dumped into one little congressional seat.
It’s got to be a Billion dollars in TV adds alone at this point. If I were to count the number of adds in the last 4 Presidential Races, including BOTH candidates it wouldn’t come close to the NON-STOP hammering of adds for this little douche.
“Born in Atlanta, Ossoff was raised in Northlake, an unincorporated community in Georgia’s 6th congressional district. Ossoff’s mother Heather Fenton, an Australian immigrant, co-founded NewPower PAC, an organization that works to elect women to local office across Georgia. His father, who is of Russian Jewish and Lithuanian Jewish descent, owns a specialist publishing company. Ossoff was raised Jewish, and had a bar mitzvah ceremony. Ossoff was raised by his parents in the 6th District. He currently lives with his girlfriend ten minutes south of the 6th District.
Ossoff attended the Paideia School, a small private school in Atlanta. While in high school, he interned for Georgia congressman and civil rights leader John Lewis.
