I am about 10 minutes into the debate by the Republicans running for governor. One nice lady (*nods nervously) wants to solve Georgia's crime program by calling out the National Guard as a supplemental police force. She also thinks Christians are the only people persecuted for their religion in Georgia. https://atlantapressclub.org/debates/

I'm watching on YouTube, and it's implied that this is a second debate though only one is listed at the above site. Kandiss Taylor, who has been identified by those outside of Georgia as the really crazy one, is not the one who made the above comments.

While there are no binding referenda on Georgia ballots, there are "Advisory Questions." None of them is great on the Republican side, but Questions 5, 7, and 11 set off the loudest alarm bells in my head at the moment.

Then there's the Lt. Governor's Race where Butch Miller is running based on keeping trans teens from participating in team sports with their identified gender. Or as he puts it. "Let's keep boys from competing in girls' sports." [/paraphrase]
