Episode notes
Kemp Endorsement Rebuilt Georgia GOP Unity
- Governor Kemp's public endorsement of Trump materially improves GOP unity and on-the-ground coordination in Georgia.
- Kemp's independent expenditure operation will cooperate with the Georgia GOP and groups like Turning Point to boost paid door-knocking and turnout.
Make A Vote Plan Use Absentee And Early Voting
- Do plan a vote strategy now using absentee or early voting instead of relying only on election-day turnout.
- Georgia GOP is building an absentee ballot chase program and encouraging voting during the three-week early period starting October 15.
Three County Buckets Determine Georgia Outcomes
- Winning Georgia requires targeted turnout in three buckets: urban core counties, ex-urban Republican-leaning counties, and rural counties.
- Gaining just ~1.5% extra turnout in 100+ rural counties alone could flip the state by ~11-12k votes.
