Pick any national Republican-- Trump, Ryan, etc.

probably the press is already scheduled to be there.
Free exposure is always nice.

Describe in detail where he differs, why, and how it matters to his future constituents

I'm a Georgian and I despise the GA GOP. Handel is especially odious because she's a female Republican. (FYI: I'm a woman.)
My brother-in-law lives in the 6th district. He voted for Ossoff and will vote for Ossoff in the runoff. BIL is a doctor originally from New Jersey and he graduated from medical school in Europe. So, not all 6th district voters are Southern born fundy, Xtian, hypocritical, racist, bigoted assholes.

(21,596 posts)7. Yay!!! Thank you!
I just hope and pray for big turnout. The GA GOP schedules runoffs for dates after the public school year has ended and when the spring semester is finished for colleges and universities because many families and students are on vacation and out of town. Did I mention that I hate the GOP?
