Every Trump endorsed candidate is dominating by double digits in Georgia. It's absolutely clear that the People are sick of the old GOP. Then, out of nowhere, the two guys who run the elections are dramatically leading their opponents? Okay, bud.
As much as my hackles are wanting to rise, I'm watching the show and waiting for the thunder.
Lt Governor.
Sorry - I meant in the Nov election - if Kemp gets charged with anything serious by Nov, the Reps won't have any known candidate to step in and beat Abrams (except maybe Herschel, but he's on his way to Senate).
Hey, bud. Didn't have a lot of time earlier. Just got a chance to pop back on.
In short, the Lt Governor takes over in lieu of the Governor. If there is no R candidate for Governor for the race, you'd be correct. However, remember that Consent Decree. Kemp and Abrams are tied at the hip. If one goes, thus doth the other. This would mean the Governor race needs to be redone, with the newly elected Lt Governor taking office and holding down the powers of the Governor until the special election is held.
Or, if things got completely out of hand, FEMA runs all of our elections. But that's a near-total-loss scenario provided by Devolution.
Hope that clears up the Georgia methodology!
Helpful, thanks.
