Trump's Appearance at GOP Conventions Raises Concerns for Party Unity and Electability.
Some members of Georgia's state Republican convention are seeking to ban GOP officials they consider ideological traitors from future primary election ballots, including Gov. Brian Kemp and Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger, who refused to overturn Trump's loss in the 2020 election. Trump is expected to appear at the convention on Saturday, despite facing charges of mishandling classified documents. The proposals to ban candidates could be used against those who show insufficient purity on abortion or taxes. However, opponents argue that primary election voters should decide who's fit to be a Republican, and that ideological purity attempts are a strategy to lose general elections in battleground Georgia.
