For your morning lulz: Jimmy Carter sends letter to Georgia Republican governor candidate

Jimmy Carter sends letter to Georgia Republican governor candidate asking him to resign
Former President Jimmy Carter has asked the Republican candidate for Georgia governor Brian Kemp to resign from his position as Secretary of State in light of his race against Democrat Stacey Abrams
Mr Carter, himself the former governor of the Peach State, asked Mr Kemp to vacate his position since the office is in charge of monitoring election results.
In a letter made available to the Associated Press, Mr Carter cited his vast experience watching elections around the world through the Carter Center, an Atlanta-based human rights organisation: “One of the key requirements for a fair and trusted process is that there be a nonbiased supervision of the electoral process”.
The 94-year-old politician and volunteer with Habitat for Humanity wrote to Mr Kemp in what the AP called “less as a partisan who has endorsed [Ms] Abrams and more as the former president who's spent the decades since he left the Oval Office monitoring elections around the world”.

Perhaps you shouldn't have endorsed anyone before asking for his to step aside Jimmy.

All you have to do to get Jimmy to shut up is to remind voters of what he did to Carl Sanders.

He should probably recuse himself with regard to this election, but resignation seems a bit of an overkill.

Go build a house, Jimmy.

The narrative is beginning to come into focus.
Illegitimate Governor.

Too much of a conflict of interest. Can't endorse one candidate then ask the other to step aside. It's too partial regardless of the "work" your foundation has done.

Is it even a given that Kemp will win? Seems awfully close from most sources. Too close.

Jimmy Carter, contributing to the empowerment of the Conservative movement since 1976.
Thanks Jimma.
Thanks Jimma.

Kemp isnt going to resign, he is a Republican in charge of the election in Georgia, he will do whatever he can to limit the vote of minorities and the poor and if that means keeping his position as SEC of state he will do it.

No it's not a given. Georgia is becoming Hollywood East. It's only a matter of time until that industry and it's financial influence swing the state.

I'll bite, what is he doing from his position that could have an effect on the vote?

He's executing Federal and State Statutes as pertains to voter registration. A racist plot, to be sure.

Said in a thread started about a former Democratic president who built his career on racism.
