The Georgia Hour, episode 70: AJC Backs McKoon, Exposes GOP Financial Woes

The AJC endorses Josh McKoon to help Republicans defeat Jon Ossoff in 2026, with polls showing Governor Brian Kemp as the only viable statewide contender. Marjorie Taylor Greene’s leadership could doom the GOP ticket, and Brad Raffensperger’s prominence risks alienating MAGA voters. The party must reform by June 2026 to prepare for 2028. Raffensperger aligns with Kemp, while Steve Gooch and Greg Dolezal seek Lieutenant Governor endorsements from Donald Trump. McKoon navigates Georgia GOP Inc. financial scandals, including $1,826 for debate watch parties and reported Alloy Personal charges. Alleged campaign finance violations, potentially felonious, spark concerns, with McKoon deflecting blame. David Cross pledges an audit within 45 days. Will Laurie McClain and Karen Hentschel consider whistleblower status over possible illegal charges, intensifying GOP internal strife?
