Republican sources confirm to InsiderAdvantage that two presidential aspirants will attend the Georgia Republican Party state convention to be held May 15-16 at the Classic Center in Athens. U.S. Sen. Lindsey Graham. R-S.C., will be visiting the delegates, alternates, guests and media who will flock to the conclave next month. The Palmetto State lawmaker says that if he can raise the money to be competitive, he will seriously consider entering what will be a crowded primary field.
Also visiting Georgia’s party faithful will be U.S. Sen. Marco Rubio, R- Fla., who has officially announced his candidacy. Some had hoped Gov. Scott Walker, R-Wisc., would attend but his state GOP convention is the same weekend as Georgia’s, so he has to stay close to home. There’s no word yet as to whether former Gov. Jeb Bush, R-Fla, or any other potential candidates will make an appearance.
