Republicans Fear Marjorie Taylor Greene’s Primary Win Could Cost Them the General Election
Republican senators express concern over Marjorie Taylor Greene’s potential Georgia Senate candidacy, citing fears that her strong primary appeal among Trump voters could translate into a general election loss similar to Herschel Walker’s 2022 defeat. Concerns center on Greene’s electability, particularly her ability to attract independent and moderate voters crucial in a swing state like Georgia. While acknowledging her strong primary chances, senators emphasize the need for a candidate who can win the general election, highlighting the importance of prioritizing electability over ideology. Greene herself has expressed confidence in winning either the Senate or gubernatorial primary.
