Georgia governor Brian Kemp installed Kelly Loeffler as Senator after the retirement of Johnny Isakson. This was over the recommendation of the President, at which time I believed that as a show of independence would benefit the governor, and all things being equal, she couldn't be any worse than the RINO Isakson.
Her short lived voting record has been very similar to her predecessor so that is a disappointment.
Just prior to the COVID crisis becoming a public emergency, she dumped her portfolio of stocks, exchanging those for stocks focused on on-line conferencing.
From Wikipedia...
On March 19, 2020, the public release of federal financial disclosure documents showed that Loeffler and her husband, Jeffrey Sprecher, had sold stock in companies vulnerable to the COVID-19 pandemic with an aggregate value of several million dollars. Loeffler has denied any wrongdoing, saying the trades were made by a third-party advisor and that she learned about them only after they occurred.[22] The disclosures included that between January 24 and February 14, the couple sold between $1.275 and $3.1 million worth of stock in 27 companies, while buying stocks worth between $450,000 and $1 million, including in Citrix, a collaboration software company.
She's trotting around saying she's been cleared by the Senate.
Loeffler is guilty of using inside information for financial benefit, and legal or not, that for me is an ethical violation.
I will vote for a Democrat before selecting Kelly Loeffler on the ballot.
Wish she would stop sending me email, UNSUBSCRIBED.
