and if Kemp wins watch Trump tell his supporters in Georgia not to vote.

But he has enthusiastically endorsed Walker, for Senate, so I doubt he will try to reduce turnout this time.

It’s certainly possible, but something that blatantly childish would probably risk alienating a bunch of republicans and making himself less popular. I think one poll already shows the Georgia electorate being about evenly split on those who are more likely, less likely, and unaffected based on Trump’s endorsement of Perdue.

Also I want Kemp to win but I resent this awful display of graphical malpractice. The difference between 51 and 49 is already huge in Georgia, no need to make yourself look stupid by embellishing the poll

IMO Georgia is lean R because DeSantis's megacoattails from his 30 point win will spillover into Georgia.

If you can't handle it, just resign, Ron.

That would be a win-win.

This is a Runoff races anyways like LA, the D's are Dogs in this race and LA but if it goes to a Runoff the D's are Favs

D's can win the Senate by winning AZ, NV, PA, WI, and MI and NH 51/49 but Warnock has a better chance than Abrams due to Incumbent

We won all those blue states including GA on 250 K Provisional ballots and Johnson and Toomey won by 200 K votes so any R saying that MI, WI, PA and NV and AZ and GA as Lean R are partisan, it's late breaking with Provisionals and we get 50/75 percent of them anyway, I was an election judge, I know

[Ferguson97]

It's not a very good national environment for the Democrats, but if Abrams keeps running a wholesome campaign focusing on kitchen table issues and Kemp/Perdue keep slinging mud at each other, and Perdue screaming about how he wouldn't have certified the election... Abrams could surprise people.

Here's a weird story from the AJC's political insider column:

State Rep. Trey Kelley’s estranged wife Amy is backing his GOP primary rival Scott Richards in the May 24 vote. In a three-page letter sent to residents of his Cedartown-based district and obtained by your Insiders, Amy discloses several deeply personal problems in their relationship.

“It’s very heartbreaking to tell you these details because I loved Trey. My family loved Trey. We all showed forgiveness and grace and stood by Trey during life storms. I devoted my entire life to him and was his biggest cheerleader,” she wrote.

“I continued to cling-on to hope and my faith that he would become a better man eventually, but it just got worse.”

Kelley stepped down from his role as the House Majority Whip last year as he was facing a misdemeanor charge after a fatal hit-and-run accident. A judge ultimately ruled that his failure to call 911 in response to the crash wasn’t reckless conduct. Amy Kelley initiated a divorce around the time her husband was indicted.

Question:

Could Kemp having an embarrassing foil in the form of Perdue in this primary be helping him among centrist GE voters?

He looks sane compared to frothing Perdue

[Buzz]

Hard to believe this is the same Perdue from 4 years ago.  He’s an insane idiot now.  Hopefully he loses by 20+

I believe that it will.  The key question is whether it will gain him more votes then he loses from some MAGA voters deciding to sit out the race, which I also think will happen to some extent.

On a weird sidenote while neither chamber is really in competition this cycle, Dems are likely to stay about their current standing in both chambers even in a terrible year, not that it matters much from a power perspective. The GOP ceded quite a few seats to Dems that allow them to get quite close to a majority in both chambers easily while making the finish line extremely difficult. There is a notable lack of competitive seats. Dems main possibility in breaking through is the continued diversification of the Northern side of Atlanta and flip a lot of currently Trump + 10ish seats.

Another thing to note is the GOP failed to get canidates to run in like 3 House districts in South Georgia they could theoretically win; one is a rapidly trending black belt Biden + 0.5 seat (HD-128)

Perdue's campaign for governor essentially ended tonight; although, it's been clear from the outset that he was always a heavy underdog.

Kemp should win by >25 points
