Has Governor Deal been asked about Kemp overseeing his own election. [View all]

I realize that they are the same party.
I realize that Deal would have nothing to gain on his way out of office.
But, I wonder if any Georgia media has asked him what he thinks of the national embarrassment over the voter suppression that Kemp is leading.
If so, Governor Deal why don’t you ask him to recuse himself for this race.
And it would be a request since I don’t think Deal could order him to do so.

I have wondered the same thing. dameatball Oct 2018 #1

If someone here has Atlanta media contacts, they should ask them to do this. Funtatlaguy Oct 2018 #2

I am not familiar with the GA state constitution, but it may not be the governor's call. dameatball Oct 2018 #3

No, I don't either. But it's a national story and Deal should be forced to comment on it. Funtatlaguy Oct 2018 #4

Agreed. dameatball Oct 2018 #5
