GOP nominee ditches debate to go to Trump rally, then blames opponent

By Dan Desai Martin - November 1, 2018

Brian Kemp is a liar.

Georgia Republican nominee for governor Brian Kemp is a liar. Or, as many folks in Georgia might say on a Sunday morning, he has borne false witness against his neighbor, Democratic nominee Stacey Abrams.

The two candidates, locked in a tight race to be Georgia’s next governor, agreed more than six weeks ago to a Nov. 4 debate on live television.

Just a few days before the debate, Kemp suddenly pulled out, refusing to stand next to Abrams and discuss the issues.

His reason? Rather than talk to the people of Georgia, Kemp wants to stand next to Trump, who is coming to Georgia for a rally at the same time.

The Abrams campaign called Kemp to task for breaking his word.
