Georgia Republican governor candidate Brian Kemp — who oversees his state's elections, including his own race — tells reporters he is "not worried about how it looks" to launch investigation into his opponents 2 days before Election Day. https://t.co/dNlrKcYVtt

Brian Kemp's voter suppression record:

Purged 1.5 million voters

Closed 214 polling places

Put 53k registrations on hold

Refused to replace hackable GA voting machines

Led bogus voter fraud prosecutions

And now overseeing own electionhttps://t.co/TK1MMO7INa

— Ari Berman (@AriBerman) November 4, 2018

Announcing this today with no specific allegations instead of after the election or with explicit evidence certainly gives the impression it has a non-official intent. https://t.co/T9nzMHWB7k

— Philip Bump (@pbump) November 4, 2018

Accusing your opponent of hacking an election when you are running against her + overseeing the integrity of aforementioned election feels like a desperate. premeditated attempt to call your anticipated loss unfair. @DHSgov @FBI hope to hear from you soon.

In most democracies, what Brian Kemp is doing in Georgia would simply be impossible: nobody else – not the Brits, not the German, nobody – would entrust the enforcement of election laws to one of the very people competing in that election https://t.co/SXUx20DcK1

— David Frum (@davidfrum) November 4, 2018

Kemp, it’s worth noting, refused federal help to secure Georgia’s elections from foreign hacking.

Anyway, Kemp has a history of investigations that reek of political motivation. https://t.co/eXKfW44SDn

After Brian Kemp announced they were opening an investigation into the Georgia Democratic Party for what it called a “failed attempt to hack the state’s voter registration system,” Stacey Abrams told @jaketapper he is “desperate to turn the conversation away from his failures.” pic.twitter.com/moD3eM4XeO

I've been saying for a while that Republicans will abuse their power in an effort to hold on to the House, so it's not really a surprise to see this kind of thing. But I'm still feeling kind of shocked at the reality 1/ https://t.co/K6aVFJXV1I

Brian Kemp is the modern Republican Party personified. When panicked, he’ll steal your vote or manufacture a crisis. Watch how ugly this gets, and rest assured it’s going to be the template going forward. https://t.co/x8MxHwOSYg

if Abrams wins a narrow victory i will not be shocked when Kemp refuses to concede and accuses her of stealing the election with fraud

Battlegrounds as defined within this poll: 69 seats, 63 held by GOP. If Dems lead by 5 among those seats (gerrymandering already taken into consideration), that's a big advantage. Dem +8 is in line with other generic ballots. Should be about a 40 seat Dem pickup.
