Given the national environment that Democrats face, it is likely that general-election voters in November will elect a good number of hardened Trumpists
Save time by listening to our audio articles as you multitaskBefore 2020, both Mr Kemp and Mr Raffensperger were seen as rock-ribbed Republicans. But when Mr Trump could not face the fact that he had narrowly lost Georgia to Joe Biden, he and his surrogates resorted to a campaign of extraordinary pressure on the state’s top election officials to reverse the result. When they refused, they earned the president’s permanent ire.
However real, the repudiation is not wholesale. Early data show that registered Democrats, who are allowed to participate in Georgia’s open primary, came out in record numbers—not enough to seriously dilute the heavily Republican electorate, but perhaps enough for Mr Raffensperger to avoid a run-off.
That reticence is perhaps more telling than Mr Trump’s endorsement win-loss record . Aside from pursuing his personal vendettas, Mr Trump has been careful in most cases to endorse candidates with little chance of losing. He has been so mindful of ensuring that his position as party kingmaker not be challenged that he unendorsed one candidate for senator from Alabama, Mo Brooks, who was trailing in the polls—allegedly because his zealotry for “stopping the steal” had cooled too much.
