ATLANTA – Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp kicked off a statewide fly-around tour Monday with most of the statewide GOP ticket behind him at a celebratory press conference. The most notable figure missing: Republican Senate hopeful Herschel Walker.
As he has for months, Kemp blasted Democrat Stacey Abrams’ economic stance and trumpeted his decision to lift restrictions in the opening months of the coronavirus pandemic. He urged his supporters not to buy into polls that show him with a hefty advantage.
“I’m not worried about any polls and I don’t think anyone else is either. We are working like there is no tomorrow, even though there is,” Kemp said, adding: “We’ll let the final poll be Tuesday, Nov. 8 – which is tomorrow. We’ll let Georgians be the final poll.”
