ATLANTA – EXCLUSIVE: The rival group to Stacey Abrams’ successful get-out-the-vote (GOTV) organization is touting what it says is the “playbook” to countering Democrat advances in swing states across the country in preparation for the 2024 elections.
The group – Greater Georgia – was founded in 2021 by former Sen.

And what we saw in 2022 was wider margins of victory across our state for our statewide elected officials and really– held the majority in the [state] House and the [state] Senate and won more counties in this cycle than in 2020,” Loeffler said.

She also pointed to Republican victories in all but one state-wide race in which GOP Senate nominee Herschel Walker was narrowly defeated by incumbent Democratic Sen. Raphael Warnock in a runoff election by less than 35,000 votes, despite the latter spending more than $100 million more on the race.
She attributed this success, in part, to Greater Georgia’s recruiting nearly 1,000 grassroots volunteers, registering more than 36,000 new voters, and holding 26 community roundtables to recruit more diverse conservative voters, all of which she detailed in the organization’s annual report following the midterms.
