Governor Brian Kemp was met by critics of plans for the Rivian plant in a Sunday campaign stop in Walton County: the Governor was in Monroe, not far from the site of a proposed two thousand acre facility that will crank out electric trucks and SUVs, employing more than seven thousand people along the Walton-Morgan county line.
Kemp, a Republican from Athens, is opposed by former US Senator David Perdue in a GOP primary that takes place eight days from today, with early voting continuing through Friday.
The winner faces Democrat Stacey Abrams in the November general election.
