At one of the biggest Republican events in the state, Dr. John Cowan (@JC4Constitution) is encouraging folks to get vaccinated at a nearby tent. Cowan, a conservative Republican from here in Rome, ran for Congress last year and lost to Marjorie Taylor Greene. #gapol
One of the first things folks see as they enter the pavilion: “Trump Won” shirts and placards that are familiar sights at every Georgia GOP event these days. #gapol
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene kicks the event off by putting fellow Republicans on notice: “Republican voters and donors are sick and tired of Republicans that are selling them out. And it’s our job to do the job that you hired us to do.”
It’s gonna be a wild 2022 primary. #gapol
Georgia @GovKemp is greeted by mostly cheers — but some loud boos — as he addresses the crowd with his standard stump speech: highlighting his support for the state’s new election laws, the reviving economy and his pandemic response. #gapol
Burt Jones, who just entered the race for lieutenant governor, sounds very Trump-ian with his kickoff speech.
“Ladies and gentlemen, I think we have a real swamp in Georgia.” #gapol
