Kemp Touts 'SEC Primary' to Boost Georgia's Role in Presidential Selection
Thursday, January 29th, 2015
Georgia Secretary of State Brian Kemp predicted Tuesday that his concept of a regional presidential primary next March could begin drawing potential candidates soon.
Speaking to business and civic leaders from Effingham County gathered at the Capitol, Kemp said scheduling Georgia’s primary along with neighboring states would create a significant prize for the campaigns to compete for. Having no incumbent on the ballot likely means candidates from both major parties would be eager for Georgia votes.
