POLL: Trump endorsement pushes David Perdue past Brian Kemp in Georgia primary
Washington Examiner ^ | Nov 17 | David M. Drucker

Posted on 11/17/2021 5:09:44 PM PST by RandFan

Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp would be in deep trouble in a Republican primary should former Sen. David Perdue mount a campaign, according to a GOP poll obtained by the Washington Examiner.

The survey, conducted for Republican operatives interested in figuring out the lay of the land in Georgia, showed Kemp leading Perdue 38% to 32%, with Democrat-turned-Republican Vernon Jones picking up 16%. When the pollster presented Perdue as endorsed by former President Donald Trump, he jumped ahead of Kemp and led the incumbent governor 41% to 34%, with Jones garnering 11%. In a head-to-head with Kemp with Trump’s backing, Perdue led 50% to 41%.

On Wednesday, Perdue leaned into a matchup with Kemp, indicating to a Georgia radio host that the governor is to blame for the outcome in 2020. “A lot of people feel ... that people in power haven’t fought for them and caved into a lot of things back in 2020 that didn’t have to be done,” he told WDUN. Perdue, who has ruled out a Senate bid, did not elaborate on his 2022 plans.

I’m happy enough with Kemp...

but Secretary of State, Brad Raffensperger, is toast. Doesn’t matter how many commercials he runs. HE’S TOAST.

Perdue is going nowhere here in GA. He caved in too quickly and just acted like he didn’t really care in the runoff.

Kemp is gone, anyway.

If he gets the nomination, 25 percent of Georgia's voters WILL sit on their hands on "Election" Day.

I Thought Trump endorsed Jones.

Perdue was weak on 2020 election issues.

I am not voting for Kemp in election. Would vote libertarian.

I also don’t trust Vernon Jones.

I think he would expand Medicaid in a heartbeat.

It also pisses me off that Trump encourages people not to vote(like he did at the Perry, Georgia rally).

If Abrams wins, I’m going to blame Trump. He’s doing his best to inflict that fat @SS on us.

I’m not letting fat @SS waddle into the Governorship because Trump wants to be vindictive.

I don’t deserve that from Trump. I sent $600 his way.

Assuming Kemp survives the primary, he sill win the general election in 2022.

It's not Trump, Conserv.

25-30 percent of voters are conservative, not Republican.

See Ross Perot, 1992.

That 25-30 percent have been mostly voting Pubbie because "lesser of two evils".

You CAN blame Trump for outing Assistant Democrats like Kemp - but that's not why the Perot types will give it a hard pass.

Kemp is a lying POS.

I don’t think Kemp is electable. He is too establishment, too Romney. The voting changes he agreed to in 2020 were ridiculous. He should have to live with them in 2022.

By supporting Kemp for renomination, this will be the biggest gift you could ever give to Scaty. She won’t even have to cheat to win, either.

I will blame Trump if Abrams wins.

He said(paraphrasing)... might as well vote for Abrams.

Hell, I’ve already seen two beauty shops that put up the following...

Trump said VOTE ABRAMS.

When I saw the first sign, I turned my car around to make sure I saw what I thought I did.

He won’t get within 15% of winning in a general election against Scaty. This guy is a total, epic fraud.
