This year’s event, though, brings a new sense of urgency to Republicans after Abrams came within 55,000 votes of defeating Kemp last year and Democrats forced two other statewide races into runoffs.

 

And the two leading candidates aren’t sugarcoating the challenges looming ahead.

 

“Here in Georgia, Republicans find themselves on the defensive for the first time in two decades,” Shafer said. “And we have to go back on the offensive.”

 

Johnson says the state GOP needs to do a better job bolstering local organizations that excel at “vigorously” registering voters and reaching out to young people, women and minorities.

 

Each has his own strategy to do so. Shafer talks of a “neglected grassroots” and nearly 30 counties, most of them in Republican-dominated rural areas, where there are no local GOP organizations.

GOOD

Am 7th generation Georgianon

Guess how much I hate Stacey Abrams and carpetbaggers

Will not miss the "entertainment industry" when it leaves

They keep threatening, but I don't see traffic getting any better

Hollywood, talk is cheap

We'll help you pack, just LEAVE
