Gov. Kemp urges local residents to vote for him and save Georgia’s soul

Georgia Governor Brian Kemp made a campaign stop in Toccoa last week, his message: urging Georgia voters to cast ballots in his favor to save Georgia’s soul.

The event, held at Currahee Station on Big A Road, garnered a large crowd of Kemp supporters.

Kemp explained that Georgia’s soul is at risk as his gubernatorial opponent Democrat Stacey Abrams continues to raise campaign funds to support her candidacy.

“I’m excited about what I’m seeing on the ground out there, people are excited and they’re motivated because they know that we’re in a fight for the soul of our state. We told you if you made us your nominee again, we would work hard every day until November 8^th to make sure Stacey Abrams is not going to be our Governor or our President. My belief is that Georgia don’t want a Governor that’s going to be controlled by people like George Soros, $10-million worth of contributions in California, $6 million from Washington D.C., $3.5 million from New York and Delaware, and $240,000 plus small dollar contributions from all over the country that added up to $7 million that helped her raise $50 million before the July 4^th holiday. Those people want to influence our state and they don’t even vote here. But you know what I tell people, ‘She’s going to need all that money for what we got for her,’” he said.

Kemp said that he received a lot of criticism when he decided to allow some businesses to open back up during the pandemic.

“85 percent of the money she’s raised is from people who cannot vote in the state; but you can, and that’s who we’ve been listening to. If you think about what we’ve been through in our state these past three years. If remember back to the grief that I caught when I simply allowed people like Dennis Bell and his employees to live to fight another day and reopen small parts of our economy during the pandemic. I caught unreal grief from important people, from the national media and media in Atlanta. I was not listening to them, I was listening to you all, and that’s what I told you in 2018 when I was running that I would put hard-working Georgians first,” he said.

Kemp said those same people who criticized him during the pandemic also criticized the election legislation that was passed to make cheating harder in Georgia.

He said they can’t fix every problem that’s being created at the federal level; but he will fight to help Georgians.
