"On Thursday, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported that GOP Lt. Gov. Geoff Duncan is not expected to run for a second term. Lt. Gov. Geoff Duncan is unlikely to run for a second term as the state's No. 2 politician, according to a senior aide who said the Republican is instead expected to focus on his 'GOP 2.0' initiative to reframe the party in a post-Trump era," reported Greg Bluestein. "Duncan has signaled for months that he would not seek reelection, but he's declined to say publicly whether he will stand for another term. The official, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said Duncan's decision has not yet been finalized."

Yeah this makes it more likely that some lunatic far-rightist will end up being the nominee. Actually think that performative moderation like Duncan's and Raffensperger's will be a boon to the GOP in 2022.

[Southern Delegate Punxsutawney Phil]

Was probably Dem-leaning Tossup before and probably Dem-leaning Tossup after.
Georgia is hyper-polarized.

He sided with Raffensberger and said something in the manner of Republicans wouldn't need voting reform laws to win. Trump repeatedly went after him when he still had his Twitter.
