Georgia’s Governor-Elect Brian Kemp survived a bruising race against Stacey Abrams in November, narrowly avoiding becoming the first Republican to lose a statewide election in more than a decade. But it turns out he won after throwing a big sucker punch, according to a new investigation by the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. “No evidence supported the allegations against the Democrats.” The report details how, days before the election, Kemp papered over flaws in the state’s voter registration system by publicly accusing Georgia’s Democratic party of trying to hack into a voter database.
