It sounds like there will not be a second debate between Brian Kemp and Stacey Abrams: a faceoff that had been scheduled for Sunday becomes a casualty of Kemp’s Macon rally with President Trump. The Kemp campaign says it offered alternate times and dates, including a request for a live debate on Monday night, but those offers were rejected the Abrams team.
Democratic candidate for Governor Stacey Abrams holds a campaign rally today in Gwinnett County: it’s scheduled for 11 o’clock this morning in Norcross. Abrams will be joined by Oprah Winfrey today in Marietta and Decatur. We are today five days away from Election Day.
A federal judge says she will not stop an injunction she ordered over how Georgia handles absentee ballots. Judge Lee May issued the injunction last week, saying the state had to stop throwing out absentee ballots where the signatures didn't match exactly and put them on provisional status instead, giving voters a chance to clear up discrepancies. Secretary of State Brian Kemp, the Republican nominee for governor, asked the judge to stay her injunction while he appeals to a higher court, but May has now declined. The Secretary of State’s office has said the order is unworkable this close to the election.
