Governor: Anyone but Kemp
- Brian Kemp has a record of failure in the Governor’s mansion. He has proven suggestible and unreliable and has been too concerned with outdated respectability politics to steer the Georgia GOP into the new national conservative era. Republicans for National Renewal recommend voting for either of the three main Republican challengers, David Perdue, Kandiss Taylor, and Catherine Davis, in order to force Gov. Brian Kemp into a runoff. Perdue is a crucial ally of Donald Trump and is endorsed by him; he supported a lawsuit challenging irregularities and fraud in the 2020 election. He furthermore sponsored an act that would cut immigration to the United States by 50% over 10 years. David Perdue is a stoic and patrician figure who comes across as articulate and reasonable. He has many of the personal qualities of the traditional George H.W. Bush Republican, yet is sympathetic to right-wing populism without all the bombast of a populist retail politician. This fusion may herald the future archetypal Republican politician. Kandiss Taylor is running an old-fashioned right wing populist campaign in the Pat Buchanan tradition and has the most dedicated diehard supporters of any of the candidates. Catherine Davis has a long history as a pro-life leader in Georgia and is making the life issue a central part of her campaign.
Lt. Governor: Burt Jones
- Republicans for National Renewal recommends voting for Burt Jones. Burt is endorsed for Lt. Governor by President Donald Trump. Helped to pass SB 202, the Election Integrity Act. He vows to investigate and expose all voter fraud. Wants to crack down on violent crime and direct more resources to first responders. Supports coordination between state and federal law enforcement agencies to apprehend drug and sex traffickers who are in our state illegally.
Secretary of State: Jody Hice
- Outgoing Secretary of State Raffensperger has alienated and isolated himself from the party even more than Kemp. Yet, he is still presumably unpalatable to the Democrats. He is a man on an island and his political career is over. Such is the price of betrayal. Looking forward to a brighter future, Republicans for National Renewal has endorsed a vote for Jody Hice. Jody is also endorsed by Trump, is committed to fixing elections and replacing Dominion voting machines and has consistently been rated as one of the top conservative members of the US House of Representatives since his service began in 2015. Founding Member and member of the Board of Directors of the House Freedom Caucus. Endorsed by President Trump. With a John Birch Society Rating of 88% and a Conservative Review Rating of 92%, Jody could be a future Governor of Georgia in the Ron DeSantis mode.
Attorney General: John Gordon
- Republicans for National Renewal recommends voting John Gordon. John is endorsed by Donald Trump. Wants to protect our communities against voter fraud, crime, illegal immigration, and the influx of fentanyl. He vehemently opposes consent decrees pushed by the insufferable Stacey Abrams. He’s also a self-funder; the rewards of success are quite real.
Insurance Commissioner: Patrick Witt
- Republicans for National Renewal has endorsed Patrick Witt. Patrick is endorsed by Donald Trump. Endorsed by former Insurance Commissioner Ralph Hudgens. Worked as deputy chief of staff and acting chief of staff in the US Office of Personnel Management under the Trump administration. He presents with a keen presence of mind. Strong potential as a future Governor or US Senator from Georgia. His political future is as bright as his legal mind.
U.S. Senate: Josh Clark
- Republicans for National Renewal recommends voting for Josh Clark. Unlike Hershel Walker, Clark has a track record as a conservative State Representative. He’s a charismatic Christian conservative who can give a speech that will transport the audience to a country Baptist chapel. Homeschooling father of six. Wants to break up big tech oligopolies and secure the border. Has signaled potential sympathy to the prospect of supporting mass deportation.
Congressional Districts:
1st congressional district: No recommendation
- There is no Republican candidate in this race other than weak incumbent Earl Carter.
2nd congressional district: Chris West
- Republicans for National Renewal recommends voting for Chris West, given his strongly populist platform and strength on priority issues such as immigration, as well as the fact that he is the strongest fundraiser among the anti-establishment candidates running in this race and therefore has the best chance of beating the Republican establishment and the Democrats.
3rd congressional district: Jared Craig
- Republicans for National Renewal recommends voting for Jared Craig. He is running against RINO incumbent Drew Ferguson, a member of Kevin McCarthy‘s leadership team who voted against Trump on several issues after the November 2020 election including election certification. Craig has the support of the leading conservative activists and organizations in his district. He supports treating social media platforms as a public utility. He wishes to restore America’s critical manufacturing leadership and support domestic manufacturing with comprehensive energy independence.
4th congressional district: Surrea Ivy
- Republicans for National Renewal recommends voting for Surrea Ivy. She is a proud wife and mother and a 100% consistent advocate for strong borders and school choice. She’s a charismatic and candid speaker and is committed to national security and renewed engagement with working class communities.
5th congressional district: No recommendation
- There is no serious Republican candidate running in this strongly Democrat district.
6th congressional district: Rich McCormick
- Republicans for National Renewal recommends voting for Rich McCormick. While there are several other good candidates running, McCormick is the only one with the financial resources to defeat the fake-MAGA candidate Jake Evans. With over 20 years in the U.S. Marine Corps and Navy, Rich served in combat zones in Africa, the Persian Gulf, and Afghanistan. He has also served as an emergency medicine physician, and this gives him strong bona fides to buttress his skepticism of epidemiological policy related to the SARS CoV-2 pandemic.
7th congressional district: Lisa Babbage
- Republicans for National Renewal recommends voting for Lisa Babbage. Lisa is Certified Pro-Life [GLA] & Nationally Endorsed Pro-Life Advocate. She is an Executive Board Member of No Left Turn in Education, Voices Against Trafficking, and Freedom After the Trauma. Qualified Republican Write-In candidate. She is a great-granddaughter, fourth removed, of Charles Babbage.
9th congressional district: Andrew Clyde
- Republicans for National Renewal has endorsed incumbent Congressman Andrew Clyde. Clyde is a member of the House Freedom Caucus, firmly anti-establishment and has a near perfect voting record.
10th congressional district: Mike Collins
- Republicans for National Renewal has endorsed Mike Collins. Collins is the son of former Congressman Mac Collins and is running a blue-collar populist campaign. RNR members in Georgia are also impressed with former Congressman Paul Broun whose near perfect voting record in Congress from 2007-15 assures us he would do a fine job in his old seat. While Broun (age 76) is a safe bet, RNR endorsed Collins (age 55) because we believe that as the much younger of the two, he will have a longer career in Congress to enact policies to reduce mass immigration, keep our country out of endless foreign wars and stop big tech’s censorship of patriotic Americans. Collins is also in a much better position to win a runoff.
12th congressional district: Rick Allen
- Republicans for National Renewal recommends a vote for incumbent Congressman Rick Allen who has an 89% Rating from RNR for the 2019-20 Congress.
13th congressional district: No recommendation
- There is no viable Republican candidate in this strongly Democrat district.
14th congressional district: Marjorie Taylor Greene
- Republicans for National Renewal unequivocally endorses living legend Marjorie Taylor Greene. She is the Republican answer to AOC. She is a courageous lighting rod who is the vanguard of a new and unabashed national conservatism. She is the energetic moral linchpin of the Freedom Caucus. She is enthusiastically endorsed by Donald Trump, Matt Gaetz and other patriots. She is firmly pro-life without exceptions, and boasts exemplary ratings on scorecards.
