The early voting in Georgia is breaking all state records. According to the GA secretary of state office statement yesterday, “through Wednesday, May 19th, over 565,000 people have early voted in Georgia—a 189% increase from the same point in the early voting period in the 2018 primary election and a 153% increase in the same point in the early voting period in the 2020 primary election. This represents a voting scale 3x the rate of the 2018 mid-term election.
Obviously, Georgia voters are enthusiastic to vote in this primary. The GA SoS reports party votes as, “Republican: 353,161, Democrat: 258,200, Nonpartisan: 4,017” through May 18th. Yes, republican voters are far outpacing democrat early voters, but that shouldn’t be too surprising given the top of the ticket on the Democrat ballot is an uncontested primary race to install Stacey Abrams as the 2022 Democrat governor candidate.
Despite being in an uncontested race, the team behind Stacey Abrams is working hard to drive out their voter base. As the Washington Post noted, Abram’s group ‘The New Georgia Project’, is working diligently to help Georgia Democrats make the right ballot selections. Additionally, another allied group called ‘Black Voters Matter’, is using the ‘Souls to the Polls‘ strategy to make sure black voters get the primary outcome that matters most to them.
Against all of this extra emphasis on early voting success in Georgia there is a weird dynamic on the Republican side of the equation. According to most general reporting from the media, there is a lot of enthusiasm on the GOP ballot to keep Brian Kemp as governor; however, oddly enough, it seems like Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger is being positioned for defeat. At least that’s the perspective of Politico and other similarly minded media.
Traditionally, if the historic pattern of republican ballots was used as an example, if the incumbent governor (Kemp) wins, then generally the incumbent secretary of state (Raffensperger) would win. However, in this 2022 Georgia mid-term that’s not the narrative being established ahead of next Tuesday’s outcome.
The MSM political perspective is that republican Brian Kemp will easily win the primary for governor, but Brad Raffensperger will lose a primary challenge to republican Jody Hice, a Trump endorsement. It would certainly be unusual for a Trump endorsed top of ticket candidate David Perdue to lose, and the Trump endorsed office on the next line to win – but that’s the general narrative and they are sticking to it.
The Trump-endorsed David Perdue camp is hoping to keep establishment Governor Brian Kemp under 50% and force a run-off special election. However, the Trump-endorsed Jody Hice camp is looking for an outright victory in their secretary of state race. Funny that.
DATA POINTS:
♦ Early voting in Georgia is setting records.
♦ Democrats have uncontested top of ticket candidate Stacy Abrams.
♦ Despite being uncontested, Stacey Abrams is pushing a massive voting effort.
♦ Black Votes Matter and The New Georgia Project are working earnestly.
♦ Republican Governor Brian Kemp is very confident of victory.
♦ Republican Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger is not so confident.
If one were to be a deep weeds political walker, you might suspect the data points could all be reconciled if the New Georgia Project was actually coordinating an effort for Democrats to vote for Brian Kemp, because the primary race is open to cross party voting. However, that’s crazy conspiracy theory. I’m certain it’s something else.
We will find out the outcome next Tuesday.
AUGUSTA, Georgia — Republicans in Georgia still seething about the 2020 presidential race say they would rather sit out the election in November if Trump’s candidate, former Sen. David Perdue, loses an upcoming GOP gubernatorial primary than ever support incumbent Gov. Brian Kemp.
The animosity towards Kemp, whom several MAGA Republicans described as a “Judas” and “betrayer” for certifying Joe Biden’s win in 2020, is unlikely to affect the outcome of the May 24 primary. But it may hurt Kemp’s chances this fall in an anticipated rematch with presumed Democratic nominee Stacey Abrams, the woman he narrowly beat in 2018 — with Trump’s support. (read more)
It will be more embarrassing for Kemp to lose in November than Perdue to lose to Kemp.
Neither would lose in November.
Everyone I talk with will vote for Perdue, but if Kemp wins, they will support him in the general.
Abrams is too toxic. Staying home and pouting isn’t an option.
I agree completely. .Who needs a Pyric victory
Actually would be a Pyrrhic defeat….
I wouldn’t vote for Kemp…why this insistence on voting for scum traitors.
So Abrams wins..Kemp lied and assisted in Bidens destruction of President Trumps achievements.
Betrayal is unforgivable.
Speak for yourself. A Gov Abrams during coof would’ve been terrible. Kemp opened us up first. Trump and DeSantis said no, called it a “suicide pact.”
So … concede the election to Tank Abrams. That will really fix the Democrats!
/sarc
Me. I won’t vote for Kemp. Not Tues and not in November. Even if Stacy Abrams is Governor. Kemp doesn’t even want to be Governor anymore. He’s compromised and just doing what he’s told. Abrams will win in November. It’s been decided.
Welcome to Detroit. Cuz that’s what you’re going to get.
That’s just idiotic. Abrams would have made Georgia just like Michigan during covid. I’m supporting Perdue 100%, but I’ll hold my nose and vote for Kemp against Abrams if it comes to it.
I want to put signs up and down Memorial Drive..”Elect Gaptooth Hamplanet for Governor – Sponsored by The Georgia for Recidivists Grifters Coalition”” and set up reaction cameras to get drivers laughing when spotting them.
If Trump doesn’t shut his pie hole, that can happen. He supports Abrams over Kemp because he’s pissed, but he also wouldn’t be stuck with the consequences.
And lots more is on the ballot besides governor. Lots of cityhood initiatives drawing interest on both sides of the aisle.
actually I really detest people that use the term “pie hole” , but that’s just me I guess
You are not alone. Many Georgians detest that terminology, along with other verbiage present now that the trouble-makers are climbing up the tree.
Sad…that’s all Kemp’s team has leftover to malign and insert vitriol and negativity, along with many lies.
It’s not just you.
Are there local School Board elections on the ballot..?
Abrams will be the next Ga gov and is my early pick to replace Biden.
I agree Jamaica. Stacy or her angrier sister.
Try to envision the RINO or mainstream Democrat who would stand up to that.
Kemp is so dirty, he would sell his own seat.
He may already have done so.
If only to conceal how he got it in the first place.
Kemp sold his “seat” when he was a gay prostie. Many times.
One of his earliest customers was Pence.
Now it’s Doocy.
Acey Doocy?
Not going to happen,
Lol….lol….lol…lol..mYour drunk!
Georgia will go to hell in a hand bag if that happens.
True, but a lot of people will enjoy their temper tantrum even if it costs the state any chance of climbing out of the ditch.
There is no rational reason to be OK with Kemp but dump Raffensperger.
I thought someone posted that Raffensperger actually had a slight lead in polls (knowing that polls are all manipulated but show what those in charge would like).
Georgia seems to be totally controlled by the GOP infrastructure. You can literally run proven criminals and win.
It reminds me of the grip the career politicians had on Mississippi when Haley Barbour was in charge: https://yallpolitics.com/2022/05/20/former-governor-haley-barbour-named-to-the-american-association-of-political-consultants-hall-of-fame-by-omi/
“Rational” lol. The state and country went full Crazytown a couple years ago. We are apparently here to be witnesses to the collapse.
Hahaha!
“There is no rational reason to be OK with Kemp but dump Raffensperger.”
True. Raffensperger didn’t do anything Kemp didn’t order him to do.
And Kemp didn’t rig the presidential race and sell those Senate seats without orders from McConnell.
An all of them did exactly what China ordered them to do.
Hice WON’T do anything Kemp orders him to do.
The GOP, Dim infrastructure are one and the same. We have no choice. Haven’t had a real choice in my lifetime.
I don’t live in Georgia. Nevertheless, I wouldn’t vote for either Kemp or Raffensperger if Adolf Hitler was running against them. They are traitors. Even Hitler was only an enemy. Outright enemies are more honorable than traitors. Speaking of traitors, I see Judas Pence up there supporting Kemp. If you put those two in a barrel and rolled it down a hill, you’d always have a treasonous, corrupt scumbag on top.
Pence was always throwing his supposed Christianity at us. I suspect he knows he’s got a nice warm spot in Hell already reserved for him because of the evil he has already done.
The Governors race is sponsored by the Demagogic Party of The Redundancy’s Grifter Coalition. They are bipartisan and reach across the aisle when passing out grift.
Doug Collins was on the John Fredericks show and both acknowledge that Kemp is ahead. The reason is Perdue has not been able to connect with voters while he was senator and as he currently campaigns for governor, while Kemp does connect with voters. Also, Collins said that many voters have told him they are voting for Kemp because they think he can beat Abrams and they are not certain Perdue can do so. So, there you go.
They hope to keep Kemp under 50 percent, so they can get him to a runoff. We’ll just have to wait.
i will just be blunt here… if GOP dirty tricks prevail in GA, everyone on the conservative side should intentionally and utterly destroy the GOP in that state by voting for democrats up and down the entire ticket. The state is already lost, the people did not fight for it to be corrected, and so an example should be made.
Don’t vote for the Democrat.
Just write-in your candidate, that is, Mr. “Fix 2020 First”
Dominion will just change it anyways, so why bother?
We cannot fix an illegitimate system by participating in it.
We can, however, destroy the GOP by letting them lose and die off in large numbers.
Yep, let’s just stay home and let the criminals destroy whats left of the county.
Think like an adult.
Whether anyone stays home or not has no bearing on this or any other “selection”. Those same criminals have seen to that.
Voting in elections that you know are rigged is not adult behavior. The ugly reality is that is has been the policies of establishment Republicans in GA who have made communist Dems competitive. Cheap labor over all is their only value.
We may call them idiots who are destroying GA and facilitating the destruction of the rest of the US, but because they have not paid a price they don’t think that they are idiots. They think that we are idiots, because they keep screwing us and we keep voting for them. Are they wrong?
The people of GA, descendants of the generation of our founding fathers, are just as toast in the long run if cheap labor RINO’s win as if communists win. The invasion and replacement is not going to stop under either. However, they may be better off if the communists win and start looting the corporate aristocrats who back Kemp. Those who rule do not yet have any skin in the game.
I am pretty sure they think they own Stacy Abrams because she is CFR. However, she is a REAL hater and I do not doubt that her animosity extends to those who are seeking to use her as a uniparty tool. She might not stay bought. Open immigration hurts GA Africans most.
“Voting in elections that you know are rigged is not adult behavior. ”
EXACTLY.
in fact, it is the very definition of CONSENT to be governed. you are tacitly acknowledging that the republic is still functioning and that the rules are still in effect – and you are playing by them, believing it will fix something.
There is a case to be made that if we refuse to withdraw consent and resist our illegitimate government, the next best thing is to accelerate its collapse.
Better a quick end than the slow agonizing strangulation that all American politicians are allowing.
Tear it down, and rebuild.
Most adults were shocked awake by 2020. If you must hold your nose do the write in they can’t change that vote and it helps no one.
I’d rathe Democrats die off.
Considering how top heavy the democrat preference is for the 18 to 29 years old, you will be waiting for a long time.
Losing is a favored GOPe practice.
You are right. Rigged votes are the problem. Paper ballots and STRICT voter ID. No mail in ballots but for extreme circumstance. No immigrant voting unless they have had citizenship for at least 5 years. No drop boxes. Show up at the polls. Make elections a national holiday. Shut the country down. Early voting, if not done completely away with, should be severely limited. The weeks available to vote create too much opportunity for fraud.
What a childish idea.
We are taking the party back precinct by precinct. Kemp was booed off the stage at a party convention.
My agenda is to get rid of the open primaries.
We also have a David Ralston problem in Georgia. He needs to go as speaker of the Georgia house.
Thanks, your efforts solve problems. As always, those that complain the most, haven’t done anything to solve the problem.
Vote for the Democrats because you’re ticked at the GOP?
Do you also worship Satan when God doesn’t answer your prayers?
My vote is important.
I wouldn’t vote Dem, but anyone that votes Kemp is a hypocrite.
Would the same voter vote for Murkowski.
Geesh!
Right! I wouldn’t vote Kemp either, but would never throw away my vote to a DemoCommie! I’d write-in my preferred candidate if that is possible in GA.
The republicans aren’t God.
Minus Trump and a few others, they are Satan Lite.
👍👍👍👍
There’s a reason the song “Lights Went out in” used Georgia instead of one of the other SEC states.
Georgia has always been more corrupt.
And more inbred.
One of my ancestors helped General Sherman burn Atlanta and a swath to the coast.
Kemp and his fellow products of incest need that kind of a beatdown.
We need a third party with candidates for all state and national elections that are Nationalist, Populist aligned. Nothing less will ever do. I am done voting for the lesser of two evils.
I would never do that. I will not vote for Kemp. But I will vote. And I will vote for Republicans. I’ll just write in Perdue in November.
Make Georgia the California of the Southeast!
You wouldn’t have to live with Gaptooth Hamplanet shooting that piehole off for years. I would..not that I liked Kemp ever. The haircut gave it away first look that he was a crooked scumbag.
There’s been record primary turnout in almost every state so far. I’d say what McConnell/McCormick are doing in PA is far more in line with what your mindset/perspective than this. Not saying Kemp won’t lose, either. I just think there’s a more obvious problem here.
Nothing says democracy like having the opposing party vote for your primary candidate.
Someday we will wake up and see what a naive form of government we have. It’s a joke, designed for elites to control at will. We have virtually no say now. Selecting DC Reps has become a tedious, fright filled nightmare taking days and weeks to fudge. Vote or don’t vote, honey badger don’t give a s—.
our system requires a moral and just populace
we shall see if the few and corrupt can continue their stranglehold over the many
Hopefully, Kemp loses to Abrams, and that election fraud is the main reason why.
There are times, and this is one of them, where we have to lose to win…like when a sports team trades a player who is poison, and the team ends up better in the long run.
Kemp, Raffensberger, a wide swath of the GOP Senate…they all need to be punished by losing. The people of GA deserve a lunatic like Stacey Abrams.
I think you’re looking for the saying often used in sports when the best player is traded and it ticks off a bunch of fans, but then the team starts doing better.
“Addition by Subtraction” is the phrase.
Then the voters should recall her for the fraud she perpetrated in 2020, and force her from office.
That office is a stepping stone to the presidency.
She is Zero’s anointed.
We do not deserve that fate.
on the contrary – we deserve the government we are willing to fight for.
No we do not deserve Stacey Abrams. Grow up.
No, we do not deserve that, but you can be civil about it.
I have nothing but contempt for people who counsel defeat because they don’t like a specific outcome. Children pick up their ball and go home. Adults continue to play in the game.
Voting for any Demonrat, or hoping for their victory, is the acme of stupidity.
Your contempt however does not serve you well in persuading others of your convictions, if you’re actually trying to do so.
You often have valid points buried in the bile, so I’m hoping you’ll reconsider your approach.
In any case, flaming ain’t the fashion at CTH.
A calm and reasoned critique Maquis. Let’s hope your advice is taken. 😉
Respect the paw!
Ad rem:
You appear once and a while.
Name calling and ridicule should be addressed 24 hours a day.
Not just for trolls who complain.
Agree, and the policeman should catch every speeder. Regretfully, I am not here 24 hrs. a day.
Your analogy hasn’t worked very well for our county since President Trump won in 2020 and yet a dementia moron sits in the oval office. NEVER give a demon-rat ANY vote what so ever.
Lived in North Fulton for 12 years and really like it. I left 15 years ago and all my children and many friends have moved away in the last 5 years. Atlanta has gotten awful. Unfortunately they invited Hollywood in and the libs followed. I have also come to the realization that African Americans will never come off the Democrat plantation. The fact that our President Donald Trump did not get at least 50 percent of their vote tells me they will always vote Democrat.
Nettahoney,
It’s hard to argue against your point. Two of the smartest Americans to ever live, Thomas Sowell and Clarence Thomas, with Thomas Sowell being the currently most brilliant intellect in the country, are black. They are a great national blessing to America. Our national curse is that so many of their racial brethren aren’t within rifleshot of the intellectual capacity of Sowell and Thomas.
it might be fun to watch the competing fraud teams duke it out!
Conservatives need to tie Stacy to all of the illegal ballot mules she was directing and get her kicked off the ballot for the general, or at least taint her with the fraud.
You would think someone in Georgia would fight as hard against her as the left does against MTG.
Going out on a limb here; on a pound for pound basis Abrams will have more fraudulent votes based on weight alone
nice…..
As the Scottish say: “Wee, not so wee and friggen HUGE…………..”
If that hefty wench needed to haul ass, she’d need to make three trips. What she lacks in intellectual gravitas between her ears she compensates for with physical gravitas on her hips and thighs. She is deservedly called “Tank” Abrams.
If Abraham’s is uncontested, can’t Republican voters (since Georgia is open primary) go write in Trumps name and beat her?
I like that idea!
We have to start trying some tricky stuff. Sure it’s unlikely but friggin try something!
But this led me to another question. I’d write in is possible, how on earth do these dominion voting machines identify who a write in candidate is? Zero chance a computer could read thousands of hand written words. Absolutely no chance.
It would go to adjudication where a helpful election official would divine your intention to vote for the Communists.
Whoever is the Democrat Presidential candidate in 2024 will make Stacy Abrams look like Fred Rogers.
Angry, angry black women will become, in the short term, the trope for Democrat candidates, and anyone who opposes them will be portrayed by the popular media as worse than Bull Connor.
Imagine the wimps who populate the RINO Republican Establishment standing up to that!
They’d wither at the thought.
Abrams is her own steamroller.
Georgia is turning out to be quite an embarrassment.
Apparently even president Trump can’t help there.
At this point only care about Hershel Walker!
You must believe the polls.
You’re wrong PDJT is helping down here…you just don’t realize that, yet.
Certainly hope so.
But…but…how can this be? Left wingnuts and msm determined voting laws in GA are racist.
BTW, how did big ‘ol Stacy become a millionaire in early 2021 after owing hundreds of thousands in back taxes for eons?
I thought she made good money doing those gain detergent commercials? 🙂
😆🔥
On a somber note, the powers that be (those lying, dirty pos cheats) will ensure this year she steals the election 😡
Her acting career and literary skills.
She is the President of the Universe AND a “best-selling” steamy romance novelist!
Mega-bucks industry.
😂👍 But of course!
Ohh, steamy romance novelist makes sense given she is such a sexy, svelte, gorgeous thing
I guess 1) Purdue would (probably) be better than Kemp 2) Kemp would be better than the fat #BLM woman 3) Would it be karma or God’s Sodom and Gomorrah justice that if she won, she immediately mask and vaccinate mandated all of Georgia, ala Jacinda Ardern, for covid or monkeypox (so far, no demand for renaming the African monkeypox virus by #BLM or removing all mention of its transmission by ‘men who have sex with men’ ((and having recently returned from Nigeria)). I’ll bet Pfizer would pour mountains into her offshore accounts.

Pants are the new masks.
Personally I can’t stand Kemp.. That being said does anyone really want Stacy Abrams ?
It’s a tough call. After the take over of California, the GOP started running moderate Democrats with strong fund raising skills, calling them “independent..non-partisan..” when the reality was these candidates lacked founding principles. I mostly write in a known conservatives name. A couple of times I paid the filing fee and got the signatures to get on the ballot, with the intent of embarrassing the corrupt GOP.
Voted in Georgia last Saturday. Republican ballot. I voted against each incumbent in every single GA statewide race. Goodbye Kemp, Carr, and Worthlessburger. Looks like the Governors race may end up in a runoff and that usually favors the candidate in second place in past Georgia elections.
BTW. You can only vote in the GA party runoff if you voted in the party primary. Can’t cross over later.
Good to know that you can’t just jump into the runoff if you didn’t vote in the party primary. Also I found the verification of what you just said above.
“4. If I voted in a particular party’s primary, may I switch to the other party for the runoff? No. When you choose a party during a primary, you may only participate in that party’s runoff. You may not switch parties for the runoff. ”
Now it make sense, what Abrams is doing with the cross-party antics. Have to get enough to cross vote in the primary in case there’s a need for massive fraud at the runoff.
She would be better to not have them vote in either primary. They are free to vote in the runoff they didn’t vote during the primary.
Crazy. I know.
Only those voters who participated in the Primary are allowed to vote in the Run-Off.
That’s how I read the election law in Georgia.
If you did NOT vote in the Primary, you cannot vote in the Run-Off.
I live in Georgia, I don’t believe this is correct.
If I do not vote in the primary tomorrow, I can still vote in November for whomever I please.
If I do vote in the primary tomorrow, I can still vote for whomever I please in November.
Thanks for voting as you did, and the information.
The fake election is set up very nicely .
Brian F’n Kemp is receiving Biden 2020 levels of “support” and will draw the equivalent of 82m voters in GA during this primary and consequently Smokes Trumps endorsement ….. and then absolutely gets embarrassed by Abrahams in Nov when the rug is pulled from underneath this phony.
The only sad part is there is ZERO scenario where Herschel Walker defeats Warnock in this fixed election to elect Abrahams .
These elections are completely fake
Mail in ballots are deciding PA and they will decide GA as well.
I’m curious, why you say that about Warnock? I haven’t heard his name this year. It’s understood that Herschel will win in a landslide. There is not one Georgian I’ve spoken to who would not vote for him
Will anything matter unless true MAGA candidate win nomination and win the election?
We see that Australia’s “CON-servatives” lost control of the government.
However, considering that this government went full-nutzoid, freedom-killing FASCIST because of the Chinese Communist Virus, should the Australians expect any differences now?
BINGO!
FWIW: I’ve been polled several different times by several different groups and another one just today.
Also, if anyone is closely following, I would suspect you are also aware of RAV’s coverage, with Steve Bannon, John Fredericks, along with a PDJT and his entire TEAM.
Sarah Palin was with David Perdue yesterday for his Savannah rally, I watched, it went very well and the press conference was went well also.
One point I would like to make: To those who refer to Perdue as lazy, do nothing, uniparty, stupid, liberal… etc., etc. From my point of view, he is very well spoken, has a great sense of humor and he really makes sense and doesn’t need notes in front of him to answer press questions and I don’t know how anyone could refer to him as “Liberal” or “Uni-party”…so, I have no idea what your point is, other than you prefer a criminal in the Governor’s Mansion in Georgia? Really????
Any time I have listened to Brian Kemp, it was a cringe-worthy moment; the man is dumber than a box of rocks and he reeks of corruption, good ole boy backroom politics. David Perdue and PDJT saved his sorry backside once and then he stabbed them in the back. He was all in on the STEAL….and if you don’t believe that, then you will probably be kissing the backside of Governor Stacy Abrams….but you’ll get no sympathy from the likes of me and my crew.
As far as Candiss Taylor…good go vote for her, because she will take it away from Kemp. However, when she was interviewed on WarRoom, she does NOT tell us anything about her positions on ANYTHING…she’s a blank slate but she is another “Ultra-Maga” Candidate…blah, blah, blah, blah…all part of the splinter strategy.
PDJT called out Kemp’s campaign and MSM dirty tricks yesterday, which was divine to watch and listen to.
Don’t underestimate David Perdue, his team, and the support of PDJT.
I know, I know…Kemp, alongside Pence, and Christie and other Never-Trumpers talking to 50 or so people having coffee on a break in a café’ , is really gonna take it all away from PDJT and his endorsed candidate Perdue. They got him this time for sure! The Old Crow and his gang are going to take control in Georgia…just like they did in the last election, right?
We’ll see what happens, Tuesday.
“Wow, the Governor of Georgia, Brian Kemp, was booed off the stage Saturday at a Georgia Republican Party event. They wouldn’t let him speak.
“It is amazing how the people get what happened in Georgia, and elsewhere! The election was rigged, and everybody knows it. Kemp did absolutely nothing. Now our country is going to hell!” — Donald J. Trump August 11, 2021
Yes, I do believe the Dems with come out to vote for Kemp. Also, the polls are purposely showing a lopsided win for Kemp so that if they need to cheat for him to actually win no one will suspect anything. When and why did Georgia go blue? Is it Atlanta? I think the only reason NC and SC are still more red is because neither state has a city as large as Georgia for one thing and at least in NC the black population is not as large.
Yes, it’s because of Atlanta.
In the mid 90s there were 3 million people in Atlanta, there are now 6 million, that’s about half the entire state population.
Atlanta controls everything. Atlanta is also run by blacks. Downtown Atlanta is 80% black.
The problem isn’t that those people are black, the problem is that those people have been on the plantation for multiple generations, and they ain’t leaving.
They think we all owe them, and they are determined to get what’s theirs.
I found this out re: Georgia’s system: 4. If I voted in a particular party’s primary, may I switch to the other party for the runoff? No. When you choose a party during a primary, you may only participate in that party’s runoff. You may not switch parties for the runoff.
So Dems who vote Rep in the Georgia primary can vote again as a Rep in the runoff. But if Dem votes Dem in the primary he/she can’t switch parties to Rep in the runoff. That’s of some comfort if Kemp comes in under 50% and there is a runoff between Purdue and him.
I haven’t met many people who have or will vote for Kemp in the primary. I’m sure there are many, but not in my county.
I would not count Perdue out because Georgia Republicans are very pissed off at Kemp and Raffensperger.
Raffensperger is toast. His commercials are gaslight material denying his complicity in the 2020 steal.
There are contested races in the down ballot on the Demonrat primaries so I would expect good turnout in their primaries. Even the commie Senator Raphael Wornock has a challenger and he is running commercials, which surprised me. I would have thought they would deploy BLM to politely ask his opponent to drop out.
“In many ways a bad RINO is worse then a democrat because you don’t know where they’re coming from.” –Donald J. Trump April 9, 2022
They say Abrahms has the goods on Kemp and is ready to use it the minute he is declared the winner. Says Kemp took in millions of Covid relief. Can’t you say the same sbout Abrahms and ActBlue / Zuckerbucks???
“An elective despotism was not the government we fought for…”
-–Thomas Jefferson: Notes on Virginia Q.XIII, 1782
I really don’t trust the legitimacy of these elections anymore. The vote counting process and voter verification process is totally flawed and open to fraud. Sadly, the many states across the US have lost control of their electoral system. In the process many voters have lost trust in the system and election outcomes. This is very unhealthy for any Democracy.
Pence , the traitor with Kemp the traitor
Says it all
“The Governor of Georgia, Brian Kemp, together with Brad Raffensperger, allowed this Election in Georgia to be Rigged and Stolen. Why they ever agreed to Stacey Abram’s Consent Decree nobody will ever know.
“Thank you to all the Patriots for continuing the fight. Brian Kemp and Brad Raffensperger have done an absolutely terrible job of watching over Voter Integrity in Georgia. They must be held accountable!” — Donald J. Trump July 16, 2021
Time to end the early voting. I will not trust any election until we get VOTER ID
If Abrams wins in November, she will replace toes up in 2024. Abrams checks more boxes.
I was surprised to learn that in Canada, you can vote for a candidate for the Conservative party leadership (and potential PM of Canada) during the upcoming Convention in September if you are 14 years old. You also need to pay a minimum $15.00 for a 1 year membership and also meet citizen requirements.
“Your family—even your kids, anyone 14 years or older can sign up for a membership” was included in the e-mail acknowledging my membership along with many suggestions to recruit new members. I laughed when I was notified I would receive a mail-in-ballot. The 1st ever in my life. Voting in a booth was always my priority.
Whether Pierre Poilievre will win the leadership race and then sell out his voters is not yet known. But I doubt he will follow the weak and short leadership paths of his predecessors. He is definitely not weak or too timid to propose wise but controversial policies like removing Canada from the WEF. He’s fully committed to winning.
Jean Charest, a once popular Liberal Quebec Premier and former Deputy PM of Canada is running against Pierre. It is Canada’s version of the split vote racket and why 2 weak Conservative milquetoasts previously won the leadership.
Hopefully Perdue can pull this off bc Kemp is horrendous and obviously took payoffs from various election thieves in 2020!
If Jody Hice wins he should do a forensic audit of this primary election upon taking office. The fix is in for Kemp.
I will vote Perdue on Election Day as will my 4 family members. Kemp is compromised. His daughter’s boyfriend, Harrison Deal, was murdered Dec 4, 2020 to keep Kemp in line. Kemp will do what his handlers tell him, including lose to Stacy Abrams. Hopefully we can get a Secretary of State and Lieutenant Governor (Head of Senate, appointer of committees, gatekeeper of legislation) to fix our elections. That’s about our only hope.
Kemp.
One more rigged election.
For services rendered. 🤔
My question is: If the Dems are behind the large turnout in the R primary and to boost Kemp – why not also direct the Dems to push Raffensperger to the finish line, since he is the one who (in their eyes) is the hero that stood up to Trump?
Why do Republican voters like Kemp so much, in the first place?
It took some convincing but I talked my wife and mother in law to vote for Purdue. Never underestimate the power the media lock on election fraud news has. The likes of Erik Ericksson have a big voice here and poopoo the impact and trash MAGA whenever possible. There is a perception Kemp is more electable, which is totally false as we know.
As an aside, WSB has a big presence here. They used to be a strong conservative voice with Rush leading the lineup, but have gone full FOXNews since he passed. They have a boycott on any election fraud and Kemp corruption news, and have changed their lineup eliminating MAGA hosts, replacing with that dufus Ericksson and other comedy type talk shows. I only tune into 1690 am which carries Bannon and Fredricks, but the signal sucks. We need some presence on the FM dial and local news. Word isn’t getting out like it should. Take my mother in law for example. She’s old and only gets news from the paper and local TV news. I had to sit her down to watch 2000 mules on my tablet to convince her not to vote for Kemp.
The few that I know say it along these lines and I am paraphrasing: ” Boy, Kemp has really done a lot for Georgia; kept us open, no mask requirements”…that is it..but another one popped up: “Look he made one mistake in the November 3rd 2020 election and he shouldn’t have done that BUT he’s done a lot for Georgia; kept us open and didn’t force shots or masks. I hate not following Trump’s endorsement but I really don’t like Perdue.”…
“Why don’t you like Perdue? “…..I don’t know..’.I guess I just don’t know him…but he’s never been governor.”
And there you have it… … I am NOT making this up, because I cannot, not even in my wildest dreams.
This is the local(s) rationale; not all just those I know up close and personal.
Very astute analysis. It reminds me of 2020 – all those Republican wins and yet Trump loses. Either they think we’re so dumb or they don’t care anymore and they’ll lock us in the dungeon and throw away the key like Jan 6 thers if we get out of line
I’ve voted dem in the primary to try to get the easier to beat candidate elected.
Cynthia McKinney was defeated by Republicans voting for her opponent in the primary. EVERYONE thanks us for that one. McKinney was a nightmare not unlike AOC.
It’s a thing in Georgia, just part of the fun.
Why do MAGA voters in Georgia vote for the snake Kemp?
Because they do not pay attention and it hasn’t negatively impacted their lives yet.
MAGA numbers are greatly overestimated.
They have an Establishment mentality at heart?
All of my conservative friends will vote Kemp-suburban white women. They don’t keep up with politics. They know GA wasn’t shut down during Covid. We never had a mask mandate. They know Kemp signed the (anemic) election integrity bill. His policies haven’t been bad, just never far enough, fast enough. He’s not a bold leader, just kind of plods along. He’s the definition of establishment GOP. Most conservatives seem content with the status quo.
Other Georgia Republican candidates have been making robo-calls with PDJT on Perdue’s behalf over the past few days
We received a few from Congressman Andrew Clyde and President Trump and also on behalf of Jody Hice.
David Perdue and PDJT have had tele-rallies and there will be a rally on Monday with War Room hosts, along with members of PDJT’s team; Peter Navarro will be a key speaker on the election fraud in Georgia Nov 2020 and Ja 2021. PDJT will be calling in to speak with the attendees.
If there is a run-off PDJT has already promised he will be visiting Georgia in person.
From what I am hearing, the Kemp events are not well attended; comparing them to Biden’s campaign events’ attendance.
Brian Kemp is not polling at 60%, that I can tell you for sure.
Lost Souls, Fraud at the Polls.
When voters from both parties are allowed to vote in the primary of one party, we should not be surprised when one party’s primary has a lot more votes cast than usual.
Tank is the incumbent which will give her an advantage against Kemp.
Whats the difference between Kemp and Abrams? They serve the same massa.
Kemp continues to wield power because he is not the only corrupt politician in GA, he is at the apex of a corrupt cabal, also known as the GA Legislature. Add to that many Republican Party groups are in lock step with him. He is like a mob boss, you cross me and you are toast. You support me and committee chair positions and backroom deals will produce political favors for your county.
It is a closed system and the only way into it is absolute loyalty. Trump said that is hard to beat an incumbent governor, that is not an excuse, that is a fact. Kemp has amassed a huge war chest making it difficult for anyone to challenge him. He has run a negative campaign, and as dumb as he is, he is a political strategist leaving no stone unturned. He is fighting to win, because he wants power and he will do anything to keep it. Perhaps our GA kingpin envisions himself on the Pence/Kemp ticket in 24, that is if there is any country left to govern.
And one wonders why true conservatives will refuse to vote for him in the general election, why, because if he wins, we will get what we deserve for electing him.
When the results come in will we know how many Democrats voted for Kemp. This open primary with Abrams running unopposed almost assures Kemp victory.
A horse named Early Voting won The Preakness today. The lefties on Twatter think this is a sign for good things to come!
What I find amazing is… People still believe that any of this matters.
It matters; even my personal physicians and dentists are worried about an Abrams governorship.
We have patient freedoms in Georgia that will magically disappear if that “one” is elected. Believe me, many of those excellent physicians, and dentists, private cancer clinics, etc…they will find a way out of here.
I know that our personal medical professionals refuse to take the jabs, did not push it on patients, against masking, and home school their children. They are quiet about their personal lives, smile and nod but they always have a work-around when it comes to their patients rights. That’s a really big deal.
That will be all gone if that Person is installed as Georgia Governor.
Georgians have no idea how bad their life is about to come under the direct dictatorship of an Abrams Tank.
