Georgia gubernatorial candidates Gov. Brian Kemp and Stacey Abrams sparred Sunday in their second and final debate – their last chance to sway undecided voters as the candidates battle to be Georgia's governor once again.
In the hourlong debate that allowed for longer rebuttals, topics changed – sometimes quickly – with candidates pivoting from affordable housing to pandemic response, for instance.
The candidates' second debate took place nearly two weeks after early voting in the state began, with over a million Georgia voters already casting their ballots. Election Day is Nov. 8.
The economy, abortion and gun ownership all came up in the debate; they are among the top issues concerning voters heading into the midterm election.
The final question dealt with whether Kemp and Abrams would respect the results.
"Yes," Abrams answered quickly.
"Absolutely," Kemp said, moving on to describe how safe his state's voting laws are and accusing the Democrat of stoking fears about voter suppression. He also touted the record voter turnouts in past state elections, refuting any claims of voter suppression within the state.
