Day 2 of early voting is complete, and Republicans continue to lead turnout across Georgia’s 9th Congressional District.

So far:

20,703 total voters
16,745 Republicans
3,937 Democrats
21 nonpartisan voters

That is a strong Republican advantage, but this runoff is far from over. Low-turnout elections are decided by the people who actually show up, and we need Republicans across the district to keep building on this momentum.

Make your plan. Bring a friend or family member. Get to the polls and make your voice heard.

Today, we pause to remember the Americans who gave everything in defense of our country.

Memorial Day is not about politics or celebration. It is about honoring those who never came home.

May their sacrifice never be forgotten, and may we be worthy of the country they died defending.

#MemorialDay

Keisha Lance Bottoms had her chance to lead.

Atlanta saw the results.

Riots and disorder. Draconian COVID overreach. Rising crime. Collapsed police morale. Families and businesses losing confidence in City Hall.

That is not leadership. That is a warning.

Georgia does not need Atlanta-style failure in the Governor’s Mansion.

Keisha Bottoms failed as Mayor.

Why would you trust her as Governor?

Early voting for Georgia’s Republican Primary starts tomorrow, April 27.

This primary is our opportunity as Republicans to choose the candidates we believe are best prepared to carry our principles forward and defeat the Democrats in November.

Primary elections matter. This is where we decide who will represent our party, our values, and our vision for Georgia heading into the general election.

Early voting will run from April 27 through May 15, and Primary Election Day is May 19.

Do not wait until the last minute. Make your plan, know where you are voting, and encourage your family, friends, and neighbors to do the same.

Bank your vote early. Help us build momentum. Let’s make sure Republicans are ready for November.

Today, the 9th District Republican Party District Committee met and voted to contribute the maximum allowable amount to Aizaz Shaikh’s campaign for State Senate District 7.

This race is a true pickup opportunity, and with multiple Democrats in the field, it will come down to turnout and effort.

Aizaz is putting in the work—but he can’t do it alone.

If you want to see this seat flipped, now is the time to step up:
👉 Donate
👉 Volunteer
👉 Help us turn out the vote

Every dollar and every hour matters in a race like this.

Let’s get to work and deliver a win in the 7th Senate District.

Today is Election Day.

To our friends in Georgia’s 14th District—this is your reminder to get out and vote.

Special elections like this are almost always decided by turnout. While a lot of people sit on the sidelines, the ones who show up are the ones who decide who represents the district. That means your vote carries even more weight today than it normally would.

There’s a clear choice on the ballot, and [INSERT CANDIDATE NAME] is running to represent your values and your community. But none of that matters if people don’t show up.

Don’t assume someone else will take care of it. Don’t assume the outcome is already decided. In a race like this, a small number of votes can make the difference.

Polls are open now—take a few minutes, go vote, and make sure your voice is heard.

Please see the following statement on HB 369 from the 9th District Republican Party

#ga9gop #gapol #gagop

[Republican Party of Georgia’s 9th District @ga9_gop]

Yesterday, the Executive Committee of the Republican Party of Georgia’s 9th Congressional District voted to pass a resolution affirming primary neutrality.

Today, the full District Committee — the overarching governing body of the Republican Party of Georgia’s 9th Congressional District — also took up the matter and voted separately.

Two different bodies. Two separate votes. The same conclusion.

The primaries belong to Republican voters — not political insiders, not ideologues, and not decisions made in shady back rooms. Our nominees are chosen by the grassroots at the ballot box.

Regardless of what those questing for power, fighting windmills, or playing purity police may say, the 9th District understands the job of a political party. Our singular and most important purpose is to elect Republicans to office. Anyone who tells you otherwise is selling you a bill of goods.

We stand firm in our commitment to let the grassroots decide our candidates — not insiders, not pressure campaigns, not self-appointed gatekeepers, and not grifters.

The primary belongs to Republican voters. Always has. Always will.

#ga9gop #gapol #gagop

[Republican Party of Georgia’s 9th District @ga9_gop]

The Republican Party is a grassroots party — built from the bottom up, not the top down.

Our nominees are chosen by Republican primary voters, not by insiders in smoke-filled rooms, not by delegations putting their thumbs on the scale, and not by outside pressure.

Neutrality in contested primaries protects the integrity of our process and ensures that the voice of the grassroots is heard loud and clear.

Let the voters decide. That’s how it should be.

97% of Republicans support voter ID.
71% of Democrats support voter ID.

That’s not partisan. That’s overwhelming consensus.

Here in Georgia, voter ID works. We require identification to vote — and over the last three election cycles we’ve seen record-breaking turnout and historic participation. Confidence in the process matters. Clear rules matter. Accountability matters.

Strong voter ID laws have helped create a system where people show up in record numbers because they trust the outcome.

So why would Georgia’s U.S. Senators vote against the SAVE Act?

If Jon Ossoff and Raphael Warnock oppose requiring proof of citizenship for federal elections, they are voting against the overwhelming majority of the people they represent.

This isn’t extreme. It’s common sense.

Call them. Be respectful. Be firm.

Ask their staff why they would vote against something that 97% of Republicans and 71% of Democrats support — in a state where voter ID has coincided with record participation and proven it works.

The House of Representatives has passed the SAVE Act, requiring proof of U.S. citizenship to vote in federal elections.

Only one House Democrat voted in favor.

According to Pew Research:
• 97% of Republicans support voter ID requirements
• 71% of Democrats support voter ID requirements

Let that sink in.

This isn’t controversial among voters. It’s broadly supported across party lines. And yet Democrat leadership continues to oppose it.

That’s the problem.

When elected officials ignore overwhelming support from their own base, it shows just how out of touch they’ve become. Instead of acknowledging common-sense election safeguards, they choose to lie and demonize Americans, labeling basic protections as “extreme.”

This isn’t about principles.
It’s about power.

Requiring proof of citizenship to vote in American elections protects the integrity of the ballot and strengthens trust in outcomes. Undermining that trust for political advantage is harmful to the country.

At 11:00 A.M. today, President Donald Trump will address the nation with further details regarding a decisive U.S. operation in Venezuela. Ahead of that address, the administration has confirmed the successful execution of a large-scale strike against the Venezuelan regime.

The operation culminated in the capture and removal of Nicolás Maduro and his wife from Venezuela, carried out in coordination with U.S. law enforcement. This marks a decisive end to a regime that functioned as a proxy for Vladimir Putin, a financial and logistical partner of Iran, and a destabilizing force throughout our hemisphere.

Venezuela under Maduro was not merely authoritarian — it operated as a state-enabled criminal enterprise.

For years, the regime in Caracas protected and facilitated narco-terrorist organizations, enabling the trafficking of cocaine, fentanyl precursors, and other deadly drugs into the United States. Those drugs did not stop at the border — they ended up in American communities, killing American citizens, devastating families, and overwhelming law enforcement.

This was not accidental.
This was not isolated criminal behavior.
It was a state-supported operation designed to fund hostile regimes, enrich corrupt elites, and undermine the United States from within.

President Trump has been clear since day one: America will defend its national security, its sovereignty, and its people. This action was taken for legitimate national security purposes and directly serves American interests — dismantling a hostile proxy regime, disrupting narco-terror networks, and restoring deterrence in our own hemisphere.

This was not nation-building.
This was not endless war.
This was accountability.

For too long, regimes aligned with Russia and Iran believed they could operate with impunity just miles from our shores — exporting drugs, violence, and instability into the United States. That era is over.

We stand firmly behind President Trump and the men and women who carried out this operation to keep America safe.

🇺🇸 America First. Always. 🇺🇸
