Hooey on the breathless claims of voter suppression. Page one of the democratic playbook.
Republicans in my state stink, exceeded in that only by the Democrats. I'm voting for Kemp, there's really not a choice here in the general, though I preferred another candidate in the primary.
Abrams would sandblast Lee, Davis, and Jackson off of Stone Mountain. She is the darling of the national media and deep pocket Dem donors, just like Michelle Nunn, daughter of Sam, was in the last senate election. The race is close. Abrams could win. Kemp isn't a strong candidate, frankly.
Since neither of our GOP senators is up for reelection this year, GOP interest may be flagging and turnout could favor an Abrams victory. Trump only won ga by five points, so the electoral landscape has shifted somewhat from what it was a decade ago.
Strong republican majorities in the state legislature would limit the damage she could do, though.
