Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp on Tuesday upbraided former President Donald Trump for claiming he has a trove of details about fraud within the state’s 2020 presidential contest.
Mr. Kemp rejected Mr. Trump’s declare at some point after a Fulton County grand jury handed up an indictment charging the previous president and his allies with a conspiracy to overturn the 2020 ends in Georgia.
More instantly, Mr. Kemp sounded off over Mr. Trump’s determination to carry a press convention in New Jersey on Monday to spotlight alleged election fraud in Georgia.
“The 2020 election in Georgia was not stolen,” Mr. Kemp wrote on X Tuesday. “For nearly three years now, anyone with evidence of fraud has failed to come forward — under oath — and prove anything in a court of law. Our elections in Georgia are secure, accessible and fair and will continue to be as long as I am governor.”
Mr. Kemp and Mr. Trump’s political base aligns on some Republican points, however claims in regards to the 2020 election have been a supply of competition between the pair.
Many Georgia Republicans who usually are not inclined to assist President Biden, both, have repeatedly scolded Mr. Trump for claiming their election in 2020 wasn’t clear and safe.
Mr. Trump insists the state was stolen from him, handing Mr. Biden a bevy of electoral votes.
Mr. Kemp and different high Georgia Republicans have urged Mr. Trump to deal with what lies forward.
“The future of our country is at stake in 2024, and that must be our focus,” Mr. Kemp wrote on X.
