🔴 WHY THIS MATTERS RIGHT NOW

Friends, May 19, 2026, is the Georgia General Primary — and most people don’t even know it’s coming. This is the midterm election, and the decisions made on this ballot will shape Georgia and this country for years to come. When conservatives stay home, the wrong people win. When conservatives show up informed — we win.

I downloaded the sample ballot. It is 36 decisions for me in Chatham County, GA. I sat down with some friends, we did the research, and we’re sharing our findings with you. You don’t have to agree with every pick — but please show up, please be informed, and please vote your conservative values.

🇺🇸A FINAL WORD

Look — I’m just a grateful American who loves this country and is concerned about what happens when good people stay home on election day. I’m not a politician. I’m not a pundit. I’m a guy who downloaded a sample ballot, sat down with some friends, did the research, and am sharing what we found.

You don’t have to take every single one of my suggestions. *But I’m asking you — print this LINK TO SHORTER MORE PRINT FRIENDLY VERSION  or something like it, do your own homework if you disagree, and for the love of everything this country stands for — show up on May 19th.*

The primaries are where conservatives lose because we don’t show up. Don’t let that happen this time.
