Georgia Republicans Flip the Script on Stolen Elections

The news out of Georgia last week was monumental, and many took notice. Governor Brian Kemp beat his Trump-backed primary opponent by 50 points and will now proceed to the general election as he seeks another term. After many counted him out, Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger fought back to win his primary against another Trump-backed challenger by nearly 20 points and avoid a runoff.

While much of the coverage of the victories by Kemp, Raffensperger, and Attorney General Chris Carr has focused on what they mean for the Republican Party, what they mean for the general election deserves more attention: Georgia’s Democrats will finally have to answer for their own stolen-election claims.
