Earlier today, I got a call from Clint Murphy, Karen Handel’s campaign manager, instructing me not to come to the “private fundraiser” she is at right now on Dawson Rd.
This, despite the fact that I had previously attended her event back in September that had also been billed, to me at least, as a fundraiser. (Murphy said it was a “meet and greet”.)
Apparently, in the months since, the Handel campaign has come to view this site, and me in particular, as genuine “media”, as all other media outlets in Albany were also told that this was a “private fundraiser” and barred from attending it.
So thank you, Ms. Handel, for your most gracious endorsement of our work here in getting the news out about political happenings both across our region and across our State. I look forward to interviewing you at a later date, and I look forward to seeing you at any public events you attend here in the SWGA area.
