Geoff Dunkan, former Republican Republican of George Denkan, calls the ruler as a democratic
The former governor of Georgia Jeff Denkan – who held a Republican position but was publicly replaced To become democratic Last month – he jumped on Tuesday in the race to become the next Judgment of Georgia.
“The Georgians deserve the courageous leaders to take over Donald Trump and do what is right,” Dunkan said in a statement announced by his campaign. “As the first democratic ruler in Georgia in 28 years, I will stand in the face of Trump and his men yes in our state while reducing the costs of child care, health care, and housing, so every family in Georgia is in the best possible position. This is what Georgia deserves.”
Although Denkan officially left the Republican Party a few weeks ago, he supported Vice President Kamala Harris for the presidency He spoke at the Democratic Party nomination conference In August.
Denkan referred in his speech to Trump and his allies to try to overturn the presidential elections in Georgia in 2020. Joe Biden won the votes of the electoral mandate that year.
“My journey on this platform started years ago when I realized that Donald Trump was ready to lie, cheat and steal to try to break the 2020 elections. I realized that Trump was a direct threat to democracy. His actions were not eligible from ever before, to the Oval Office again,” Dunkan said to the Democrats in Chicago.
The governmental executive committee voted in Georgia unanimously in January To expel Denkan From the party, he prevented him from working with her in the future.
In a video clip he released along with the launch of his campaign on Tuesday, Denkan pointed out the Republican Party vote, saying to the viewers: “I never hesitated to take over Trump. So the Republicans in Georgia threw it from their party. I was going to leave anyway.”
He added: “Now I run with the ruler as a proud democratic focus on what matters more to the Georgian.”
The rest of the video focused on concerns about the costs of health care and high prices, but Denkan also mentioned that he hoped “to make Georgia the line of confrontation for democracy and background against extremism.”
Denkan is already entering the ruler’s democratic democracy, which includes former government work Commissioner and Executive Director of Declab Michael Thormond, Senator Jason Estevies, Deputy State Derek Jackson, and former mayor of Atlanta Keishha Lance.
On the other side of the corridor, State Prosecutor Chris Carr and Ventian Brett Jones, Khalifa Denkan, are running in the Republican preliminary elections.
Georgia, a Republican stronghold, has emerged long ago, as a battlefield in recent years, and the upcoming ruler’s race is expected to be one of the most competition in the country. After Biden won the state by a slightly difference in 2020, Trump won last year.
While the state has two members of the Democratic Senate-including John Osov, who will return to his re-election next year-Georgia has not elected a democratic ruler since 1998.
