The Georgia Hour, episode 95: GA GOP Convention Chaos: GRA Silencing Delegates, Rigging Votes, and Betraying MAGA!

The 2025 Geor­gia GOP Con­ven­tion in Dal­ton sparked out­rage as the Geor­gia Repub­li­can Assem­bly (GRA) alleged­ly blocked del­e­gates from speak­ing, enforced elec­tron­ic “click­er” vot­ing over paper bal­lots, and vio­lat­ed Robert’s Rules of Order. Key fig­ures like Travis Bow­den, Deb­bie Doo­ley, and Brant Frost orches­trat­ed a scheme to sup­press grass­roots voic­es and main­tain estab­lish­ment con­trol. Despite a res­o­lu­tion bar­ring Brad Raf­fensperg­er from run­ning as a Repub­li­can, doubts per­sist about its enforce­abil­i­ty. Con­cerns over vot­er con­fi­dence, poten­tial embez­zle­ment in FEC fil­ings fur­ther fueled ten­sions. 

• Not shocked by what took place Sat­ur­day at the GA GOP Con­ven­tion. In the past, BKP has been reluc­tant to draw bat­tle lines. If you are a mem­ber of the GRA today, you need to leave imme­di­ate­ly. Ask for a refund and return the badge. The GRA is not a respectable orga­ni­za­tion. There are some good peo­ple that didn’t get out. On the stage was Josh McK­oon, mem­ber of the GRA. In the nom­i­nat­ing com­mit­tee was Katie Frost and Kan­diss Tay­lor, both in the GRA. Salleigh Grubbs in the GRA. GRA mem­bers stand­ing and block­ing the micro­phones not allow­ing del­e­gates to speak. 
• Going to con­ven­tions for years and have nev­er heard hate speech com­ing from GRA and in the past we have nev­er been denied access to the micro­phones. The GRA stopped you from going to the micro­phone. GRA was on the nom­i­nat­ing com­mit­tee that attacked the MAG­A­Roots. The GRA put you under their foot and ground you into the ground. 
• The con­ven­tion should be chal­lenged. They didn’t meet any of the Robert Rules of order. They did not allow any debate prop­er­ly. 
• The GRA doesn’t want paper bal­lots, the GA GOP doesn’t want paper bal­lots. The Paper Bal­lots guys had a team ready to use. 
• The rules were passed out 30 min­utes before. They put peo­ple in front of the micro­phones an hour in advance. If you want­ed to make a motion and you couldn’t get to the micro­phone that was GRA. They knew they were not going to let a del­e­gate talk. 
• Once there is a motion and a sec­ond the mics are sup­posed to be open for debate, inquiry and ques­tions. This is when you can amend the motion. But the motion, sec­ond and called to ques­tion. Before any dis­cus­sion. They spent $13K on these click­ers. There was nev­er any intent to go to paper bal­lots. 
• There was a plan­ning team to have peo­ple at 4 mics an hour before the con­ven­tion with Brant Frost and Deb­bie Doo­ley walk­ing up and down boo­ing and yelling at peo­ple. 
• If Deb­bie Doo­ley is car­ry­ing the water for a can­di­date, they will not be sup­port­ed. Deb­bie Doo­ley has made a deal with Bri­an Kemp and the Frost fam­i­ly. 
• In 2020 they stole an elec­tion and peo­ple came out to say they are on our side and what we need­ed to do was increase vot­er con­fi­dence. They wrote SB202. Then we had more peo­ple act like they were on our side. Josh McK­oon said he was on our side. A cou­ple of state sen­a­tors say they are on our side for vot­er con­fi­dence. 
• We all went into the con­ven­tion know­ing Don­ald Trump asked for paper bal­lots and we know the GA GOP says they are in favor of paper bal­lots. But when it came to the con­ven­tion they shut down the paper bal­lots. Nev­er were the click­ers ever come to the full del­e­ga­tion. There is not a way to recount or val­i­date the vote from the click­ers. 
• The Hero of the Day was Norine Can­tor. 
• Whether you like Kylie Kre­mer or not, the nom­i­nat­ing com­mit­tee is sup­posed to just ask ques­tions. Kylie record­ed Kan­diss’ state­ment. 
• Josh McK­oon got endorsed by every­one, except Bri­an Kemp. Kemp releas­es a state­ment con­grat­u­lat­ing McK­oon. Kemp moves to take com­mand of the GOP leav­ing the state par­ty behind. Deb­bie Doo­ley grabbed a small army to boo Kemp off the stage and he said he would dis­man­tle the repub­li­can par­ty. And he did with the help of Deb­bie Doo­ley. 
• In all the things that we found in the FEC files. And if Lau­rie McClain wrote the exec­u­tive com­mit­tee to ques­tion the accu­sa­tion of embez­zle­ment and all the times that Karen Hen­schel did the FEC files with­out Laurie’s name. Has any of this changed? How does she plan to address them this week? Is Lau­rie going to demand to see the book and inves­ti­gate if there is embez­zle­ment? 
• Don’t be sur­prised that Brad Raf­fensperg­er will be able to run as a repub­li­can despite the pas­sage of the res­o­lu­tion this week­end.
