In this pre-Thanks­giv­ing episode of “The Geor­gia Hour” on BKP Pol­i­tics (VoiceOfRuralAmerica.com, aired Novem­ber 26, 2025), host BKP deliv­ers a rapid-fire, no-holds-barred run­down of esca­lat­ing dra­ma inside the Geor­gia Repub­li­can Par­ty as the 2026 statewide races heat up.

Key top­ics cov­ered:

  1. Attack bill­boards against Lt. Gov. Burt Jones
    A Chris Carr-friend­ly Super PAC (Cape Geor­gia Strong Action Inc.) is putting up bill­boards accus­ing the Trump-endorsed Burt Jones of turn­ing a “$10 bil­lion fam­i­ly project” into a per­son­al pay­day for the Jones fam­i­ly. BKP notes these attacks, which start­ed in the GOP pri­ma­ry, will almost cer­tain­ly car­ry over into the gen­er­al elec­tion if Jones wins the nom­i­na­tion.
  2. Brad Raf­fensperg­er declares Geor­gia elec­tions “case closed”
    Sec­re­tary of State Brad Raf­fensperg­er, now offi­cial­ly run­ning for gov­er­nor, announced an audit of over 1 mil­lion bal­lot images from the Novem­ber 2025 elec­tion found only 14 dis­crep­an­cies (most­ly from hand-marked paper bal­lots). Raf­fensperg­er says this “proves our elec­tions faith­ful­ly reflect the will of Geor­gia vot­ers.” BKP warns the MAGA base that, as far as Raf­fensperg­er and the cur­rent estab­lish­ment are con­cerned, the 2020 con­tro­ver­sy is offi­cial­ly over—no Domin­ion decer­ti­fi­ca­tion, no hand-count­ed paper bal­lots at precincts, noth­ing.
  3. Geor­gia GOP lead­er­ship scan­dal: the “Blue­ber­ry” con­tro­ver­sy
    Brad Barnes (nick­named “Blue­ber­ry” by BKP), recent­ly appoint­ed spe­cial advi­sor to Geor­gia GOP Chair­man Josh McK­oon, is accused of a long his­to­ry of anti­se­mit­ic, racist, and xeno­pho­bic social media posts. Democ­rats (led by state par­ty chair Char­lie Bai­ley) and some Repub­li­cans (Jason Thomp­son, Deb­bie Doo­ley, Bet­sy Kramer, etc.) are demand­ing Barnes be fired. Chair­man Josh McK­oon and First Vice Chair Sal­ly Grubbs have remained com­plete­ly silent so far. BKP high­lights the hypocrisy: when Kan­diss Tay­lor made anti­se­mit­ic remarks, McK­oon imme­di­ate­ly dis­tanced the par­ty; with his own hand-picked advi­sor, there’s been zero com­ment. BKP sees this as evi­dence of infight­ing and fac­tion­al­ism inside the state par­ty.
  4. Trou­ble in par­adise: fac­tion­al endorse­ments
    BKP believes Chair­man McK­oon and Sal­ly Grubbs are “100% in the tank” for Burt Jones for gov­er­nor, while oth­er par­ty fig­ures are lin­ing up behind dif­fer­ent hors­es, set­ting up a bru­tal 2026 pri­ma­ry sea­son.
  5. 14th Con­gres­sion­al Dis­trict chaos after MTG’s upcom­ing res­ig­na­tion
    With Mar­jorie Tay­lor Greene report­ed­ly plan­ning to resign effec­tive Jan­u­ary 5, 2026 (to pos­si­bly run for gov­er­nor), a fran­tic spe­cial elec­tion jun­gle pri­ma­ry will be called. BKP explains the con­fus­ing time­line: a fast-tracked spe­cial elec­tion (like­ly March/April 2026) with all can­di­dates from all par­ties on one bal­lot, pos­si­ble runoff, then imme­di­ate­ly piv­ot to the reg­u­lar May 2026 pri­ma­ry for the full term. Mul­ti­ple can­di­dates are already jump­ing in (Star Black, Jeff Creswell, Jim Tul­ley, etc.), and the com­pressed sched­ule could pro­duce two dif­fer­ent win­ners for the same seat in the same year.

Over­all tone: BKP is clear­ly frus­trat­ed with the Geor­gia GOP estab­lish­ment, pre­dicts a nasty, frac­tured 2026 cycle, and believes the par­ty is sleep­walk­ing into dis­as­ter by ignor­ing elec­tion-integri­ty demands and tol­er­at­ing con­tro­ver­sial fig­ures when it suits them. He wraps with a quick ad break and promis­es more MTG/­gov­er­nor-race updates next week.
