Brian Kemp is a racist, bigoted piece of shit.

May his illegitimate governorship be cursed and aurdruous in direct proportion to his uncouth and downright evil efforts to disenfranchise people who had every right to vote.

Bear in mind, I'm saying this as an Ohioan who has no real dog in Georgia politics. But the one thing Ohioans and Georgians together in their right mind can agree upon is just how much GOP rule fucking sucks.

throughout the country. It's a shame how obviously blatant the racist cheating was and he still ended up being rewarded for it.

Some tough economic choices need to be made in Georgia. Like black athletes refusing to play there. Black CEOs refusing to go to or hold events there. Yes, innocent people will lose out too when this happens, but a statement needs to be made.

I have no dog in Georgia politics either. But what he did is reprehensible beyond belief.

Or seriously wounded it going forward. The party lost one House race and either will lose a second or barely win it. It is in a runoff for SOS. Kemp grotesquely cheated and just BARELY beat the democrat. All of that stuff does not bode well for republicans in Georgia.

I’m tired of people who have corrupted values walking off with everything. If indeed there is some sort of karma, I hope she smacks him in the face. I really need to see honesty and goodness winning.

She sounds like just what Georgians needs to have in their future. I hope she doesn't walk away.
