This might be a good thing.

The Rats are going to try to take her out with the stock allegations this election.

I was against this before, but things have changed.

It is a big story in Georgia. Doug Collins is a proven conservative. Kelly Loefler is a GOPe candidate and donated to Romney, etc. Never donated to or supported President Trump until she wanted the senate seat. The Governor appointed her after the retirement of Senator Johnny Isakson who retired due to Parkison’s disease (I believe). President Trump wanted the Governor to appoint Collins. Anyway, just before the market crash, Loefler sold a lot of stock (travel and hotel stuff I believe) plus her husband is some big wig in the NY stock exchange. Apparently, the reason that Kemp appointed her was that she could self-fund her campaign for re-election. Anyway, she is now baggage on Kemp. Trump is stuck in the middle because he wants Kemp’s support, even though Kemp didn’t appoint who Trump preferred. That’s it in a nutshell.

We are talking about a Republican Primary, right? The rats would tear her to pieces with the stock thing.
********************************************
It’s going to be run on November 3rd and all candidates, both Republican and DemocRAT, will be on the same ballot. If no one gets a majority of the vote, the top two vote getters will go against each other in a runoff election.

Very good news.
The stock trader he is running against should be in jail.

She should have never been appointed. The governor of GA is a disgrace for appointing her.

Collins is a good man, he should be the Minority Leader and not mccarthy

he’ll make a great senator... the appointed senator babe loeffler made a fatal error and compounded it with her lies, she should quit... but watch Mitch.

Also, Doug Collins was a rock star during the impeachment hearings. Kemp was wrong in not appointing him to the Senate seat in the first place. It was all about money rather than conservative policies for Kemp. Kemp barely won over Democrat darling Stacy Abrams, who is dumb as a rock. This stupid appointment endangers him in re-election and puts the Governor of Georgia (a red-state) seat up for grabs with the right dem candidate in 2022.

Other Georgia folks, chime in if I missed any important point.

dumping that stock going to kill off her chances

Not to defend her but her husband is the President of the Stock Exchange and with his contacts probably had access to plenty of information without any need for committee briefings, so her trades were as legit as legit can be when you have that kind of inside track.

With her access and connections she also doesn't need the job so losing an election isn't going to cramp her lifestyle one bit.

Many people out there thought it was a bad thing for Collins to run against her. I do not understand why. She was a bad choice from the get go.
