[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My guess is that Kemp wants to re-open to force a choice on the employees: (1) get your butt back to work or (2) don't come into work which will be recorded as quitting your job and therefore you don't get unemployment benefits.

He's a sneaky bastard. Always follow the money.[/quote]

And, my guess is that Kemp wants to reopen because he is listening to his constituency who want to return to work.  [/quote]

There’s zero polling In Georgia on this, so no.

“There is no polling specific to Kemp's moves in Georgia, but Atlanta-based Emory University political scientist Alan Abramowitz told The Hill that his sense is that national polls are in line with where most Georgians are, and that the move is "pretty unpopular right now."

"The public seems to be prioritizing health and safety over reopening," Abramowitz said. "Most people think it's too soon to be reopening and that we need to really ramp up testing and contact tracing first. I think that's almost certainly true for Georgia as well. ... This move seems very likely to backfire to me. Not only is it being heavily criticized by public health experts, but it seems likely to produce a new spike in infections and eventually deaths and force another lockdown."
