What I am willing to do is make sure every voice is counted, every vote gets cast. And even if they don’t vote for me, I’m going to fight to make sure our democracy works in Georgia, because that’s what leadership looks like.
We could very well risk Georgia being one of the states that invalidates or nullifies the outcome of an election.
I will take responsibility for who I am and for what I do. And I want to be the governor who takes responsibility for lifting the state up to the greatness that we deserve.
And so, for me, the issue was this. You can either listen to him fight about my record -- I mean, my rhetoric, or we can ask him about his record. And Brian Kemp's record is a failed record of leadership. And it is time for him to retire.
