Dude, your obsession with Kemp is creepy.



No... My "obsession" is voter integrity of which, Ga has none.

He looked the other way and that should be 100% disqualifying.

Yes there is.

Looking at the districting maps, I would guess you are talking about maybe 400-500 potential voters. Would guess that the majority of these are Demorats.



Yes it is. Raise the votes in one area and stop votes from other areas.

Yes... that's all .. just your small area is what Fulton county messed up.

If you dont speak out in the primary, the SAME PROBLEM WILL EXIST IN THE GENERAL.




and they will run the clock out. It's been 2 years and not one single leader in GA has gone after ballot harvesters. Not one

Like Kemp or dislike Kemp GA has been one of the better states to live in the past few years especially as it pertained to Covid, masks, and lockdowns. He’s the only one who will beat fatso and she really needs to be defeated. If she wins she will destroy the state of Georgia at rapid pace then use her governorship to jump into national politics probably running for President. We need Kemp right now.

I won't relax until it's done in November, but Kemp knocking her out again would be great for GA, as would Warnock going down. Would be a major swing and keep GA viable a bit longer.

The doubters are already starting to chatter about Stacy, as seen in the NYT feature over the weekend talking about her high water mark being in the past.

So it sounds like you’re bitching about something just to be bitching.

Voting integrity is either a hill to die on or it isn’t. I don’t care if it’s in a legislative primary or the local dogcatcher’s race.

You sure it didn’t change with redistricting?

If not like you say then your polling place should have changed to one in the 6th district.

BS!



You can not have it both ways. Either the Gov's office is weak in Ga or it is not.

1- If it is, She can't do anything without the State Legislature backing her.

2- If not, then Kemp has no excuses...


Either way, there is zero need for rewarding him for doing nothing about election fraud and turning the GBI on organizations trying to actually do something.


He is TRASH!

On a national scale, everything that is wrong with fatso is what is wrong with Kemp.

You and Pettifogger won't like this, but if Kemp wins the primary, you are going to have a HUGE national blowback that is going to sow dissent within the Republican voting bloc that prevents a ton of voters showing up in the general.

Frankly, because there is no difference nationally between Kemp and fatso, I'm not going to feel any different. The loss will be yours.

It’s pretty simple from my perspective

1. Can anyone from the R beat Stacy other than Kemp? No
2. Will the state of GA be better off with Kemp as opposed to Stacy? Yes
3. Can Stacy use the gov mansion to launch a presidential run when the D candidate pool is trash at the moment? Yes
4. Does Kemp being gov of GA give him any national appeal? No

Reality is the two non-Georgians who are very anti-Kemp on this board have the luxury of not caring if Stacy wins or not.

They're fighting a completely different battle on behalf of Trump and they don't care whether GA has better gun laws, lower taxes, fights back against CRT/trans stuff in schools, etc. It's like spending someone else's money.

So, you think Perdue will get less Kemp votes than Kemp will get Perdue votes? yikes

You've misread the landscape.

fify

And, I wouldn't even call it a fight. It's a discussion.

But, you are right. On a national level, the reason Kemp is a disaster is because of his election integrity stance.

every single one of those efforts is ONLY being fought by MAGA patriots. All of the school board stuff is MAGA. What world do you live in to think that GOPe is pushing back on any of that? Are you insane?

You know that's a lie Petti. 100% a lie. I thought better of you.

1- What happens in Ga has a direct impact on the nation. See 2020. And that's the issue and why I work with 7 groups in GA! So don't lie and say we have the luxury of not caring.


2- I have a sizable family in the state of Ga.

Stop lying. This isn't about Trump. this is about a stolen election that the leaders of Ga ignored and continue to ignore.

Kemp is doing all of that. DeSantis is doing it. Both have made far more tangible impacts on those things than Trump.

The reality is that Kemp is MAGA in almost every way except for doing exactly what Trump wanted with regard to the election. He was before and he's been after. Which is why we go in these circles where you act like Kemp is a GOPe politician when his record looks nothing like that. Meanwhile, the handpicked rival is as GOPe as it gets and has a less MAGA record than Kemp.

I don't care about the "national level" when it comes to Kemp. I think being honest and simplifying will save us all the debate -

You/JJdoc - You don't care about any of the policy issues we're talking about (at least applied to GA). Deep down you prefer Abrams win over Kemp because it validates Trump, and he's your priority. If that makes life worse for Georgians, well, you have no interests here so whatever, and we deserve it, right? I do think both of you realize Trump botched it with the Perdue pick, but you won't really say it.

Trump voting Georgians for Kemp - They may or may not think Kemp botched the election, but they think he governs conservatively/MAGAly/whatever. So they're voting for practical reasons or self interest and they have a stake in this state. Perdue didn't really provide any contrast other than Trump's endorsement so there really wasn't a decision to make. That said, I doubt that many of us who prefer Kemp really care that much as between the two, if we thought Perdue would beat Abrams.

I don't think that's particularly rosy or unfair to either element.
