kept Georgias #1 business
environment for 8 straight
years.
CANDIDATES FOR
Lieutenant Governor are
Burt Jones (state senator
from Butts County), Mack
McGregor (former Ma
rine), Butch Miller (state
senator from northeast
Ga.), and Jeanne Seaver
(conservative business
woman). All claim to be
conservative, pro-life, pro-
2nd Amendment, against
CRT, against Big Tech and
Big Media censorship, etc.,
etc. Gotta pick one. I’m
voting for Miller; visit his
website to see why.
SECRETARY OF STATE
- Georgias Sec of State,
Brad Raffensperger, should
be fighting to stay out of
prison instead of seeking
re-election. Raffensperger
is the epitome of a spine
less, feckless Republican
afraid to confront Demo
crat evil. Get this, back in
2020 while Covid cower
ing, Brad singlehandedly
(and illegally) changed
voting procedures because
as he says, “If not, Stacey
Abrams would have sued.”
Hey Brad, you broke the
law. You did nothing to
insure an honest elec
tion. Even after numerous
video clips have shown
ballot stuffing at dozens of
unsupervised ballot drop
boxes, Raffensperger has
not called for an investiga
tion. I’m voting for Jody
Hice. Hice is a conservative
congressman (currently
representing Georgias 10th
District) who will insure
Georgia elections are fair.
Simply put, Hice will keep
Stacey Abrams, and her
cohorts, from stealing
future elections which is
something Raffensperger
failed to do.
ATTORNEY GEN
ERAL -1 ’m voting for
John Gordon for AG. Chris
Carr is seeking reelection.
Like Raffensperger, Carr
should be impeached, and
thrown out of office for
allowing election laws to be
broken and doing nothing
to investigate 2020 election
shenanigans. The current
movie “2000 Mules” (a
documentary about 2020
election crimes) provides
proof of ballot box stuffing.
The movie does so by using
videos of ballot drop boxes
and cellphone geo-data to
compile millions (probably
billions) of cellphone pings
to prove 2,000 “mules”
transported illegal absen
tee ballots to drop boxes
in dozens of counties in
several key election states
(Georgia, Arizona, Michi
gan, etc.) that influenced
the elections outcome.
Again, Carr has done
ZERO investigation into
2020 election fraud despite
evidence that there was.
FINALLY, AT last
months Board of Educa
tion Election Debate, Greg
Head (incumbent) and
Melissa Mixon appeared
to be the most informed
and prepared of all the
candidates. Too bad they’re
running against each other
in the District 3 race.
FINAL THOUGHT:
Lets hope the Bibb County
voters are smart enough to
elect Gary Bechtel to be the
Chairman of the Macon-
Bibb Water Authority. The
other two candidates would
be disasters.

T his is Part 3 of my
election series.
Part 1 discussed
the importance
of doing your homework
to know your election
candidates, and their posi
tions on the issues. If you
don’t know the ideology
of the candidates,
we could end up
with Democrats
who literally hate
America and hate
Georgia such as
Stacey Abrams and
Senators
Warnock
and Os-
soff. Part 2,
I discussed the upcoming
county commissioners and
school board elections.
Again, we must know the
ideology of school board
members; otherwise we’ll
be like Loudun County,
Va. with teachers indoc
trinating children with
Critical Race that tells
white children they’re racist
because of their skin color
and black children are vic
tims because of their skin
color. It was only because
of COVID lockdowns, with
students learning at home,
that parents discovered
the Marxist ideology being
taught in most school sys
tems, by Democrats elected
to the school board. This is
Part 3. I’ll discuss some of
the Georgia candidates for
the various offices.
FIRST OFF, May 24
elections are primaries.
So, where you live, and the
party you choose deter
mines the candidates on
your ballot. If you live in
south Monroe you’ll have
different candidates than
those living in north Mon
roe or those living in Bibb
County, Jones County, etc.
To view YOUR individual
sample ballot go to the Sec
retary of States website, at:
www.sos.ga.gov click “elec
tions”, click “check voter
registration.” Fill out the re
quired information (name,
address, date of birth)
which tells you if you’re
registered (or not), and
then click on the “sample
ballot” for your party. The
sample ballot shows the
candidates for each office
- U.S. Senate, Governor,
Lt. Governor, Secretary of
State, Attorney General,
Insurance Commissioner,
State School Superinten
dent, Labor Commissioner,
county commissioner,
school board, etc. and vari
ous ballot questions. Bot
tom line, check your ballot
and know your candidates
before voting.
U.S. SENATOR-Her
schel Walker has great
name recognition (led
UGA to a national cham
pionship in 1980 and won
the Heisman Trophy in
1982) and is backed by
President Trump. If he
wins the Republican nomi
nation, I’ll support him
in November. However,
May 24th is a primary and
I’m considering between
Kelvin King (AF Academy
graduate), Latham Sad
dler (former Army Spe
cial Forces), or Jonathan
McColumn (retired Army
brigadier general).
Look them up;
you’ll be impressed.
GOVERNOR
- There are five
candidates for gov
ernor but only
two are m con
tention - Gov.
Brian Kemp
and former Senator David
Purdue. I have problems
with how Kemp allowed
Stacey Abrams to steamroll
Brad Raffensperger back in
the 2020 Georgia election.
Then after the election,
Kemp did nothing to initi
ate investigations into the
dozens of allegations of bal
lot/drop box stuffing. He,
like most Republicans, is
frightened of and intimi
dated by Dems. Simply put,
Kemp fails to recognize
that Democrats hate Amer
ica. However, he’s not alone
in his failure to recognize
the threat posed by Dems.
Stupidly, most Republicans
merely think Dems have
bad ideas. Yes, Dems have
bad ideas but they also
have dangerous ideas such
as turning America into
a Socialist nightmare by -
teaching racism in schools,
silencing any dissent with
Bidens new Ministry of
Truth rim by an aspiring
communist, promoting
transgenderism among
young children, actively
defunding the police turn
ing many cities into crime-
holes, threaten violence
against judges who make
decisions they oppose, etc.
So, who to vote for gov
ernor? I’m still undecided
but leaning towards Kemp
because - he’s worked to
halt Democrat attempts to
shut down the state (and
schools) during Covid
craziness; passed SB202
(Georgias 2021 Election
Integrity Law) making it
harder for Stacey Abrams
(and Dems) to cheat elec
tions; signed SB319 allow
ing law-abiding Georgians
to legally carry concealed
weapons - called constitu
tional carry; and Kemp has
Pregnant?
