After being excommunicated from the GOP, Geoff Duncan is trying for a comeback on the Democratic ticket
In the Georgia governor’s race, Geoff Duncan’s candidacy tests American politics as much as it tests his political appeal.
The former Republican lieutenant governor of Georgia is a current Democratic candidate for governor, with former Biden official and Atlanta ex-mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms currently holding the lead in Tuesday’s Democratic primary. A Republican is still favored to win, with billionaire Rick Jason up against the secretary of state, Brad Raffensperger, and the lieutenant governor, Burt Jones.
Though his candidacy might not prove successful on 19 May, in offering himself to the public, Duncan is asking Democratic voters to consider what the off-ramp for Republican leaders should look like in the waning days of the Trump era. Can it be as simple as switching parties and rearranging one’s political values?
RIght? There is zero self awareness here. They admit they messed up but they still want to play? So they want a participation trophy is that it? That sounds pretty familiar. There was a big thing not too long ago about people who hated participation trophies, but I forgot who it was… oh yeah REPUBLICANS.
