Help Move Georgia Forward
As the bitter Republican infighting continues, candidates in Georgia’s GOP Senate primary are facing criticism of their voting histories. In late July, the Washington Examiner reported that Herschel Walker — Trump’s handpicked candidate for Georgia’s U.S. Senate seat — didn’t actually vote in 2016. Last week, a new report revealed that Walker’s wife voted in Georgia’s presidential election last fall, even though the couple lives in Texas and claims a lucrative homestead tax exemption on their primary residence. And today, the AJC broke the news that GOP candidate Latham Saddler — a self-proclaimed “authentic conservative” and “lifelong Republican” — was originally a registered Democrat and voted in the 2004 Democratic presidential primary.
