The Secretary of State’s zero-based budgeting website includes planned expenditures by category and line item within the agency’s Administration, Archives, Corporations, Elections, Professional Licensing Boards and Securities divisions.
“The Secretary of State’s Office is committed to transparent and accountable budgeting and spending. Zero-based budgeting ensures that our agency remains a responsible steward of taxpayer dollars and becomes more efficient in every agency division,” Kemp added.

Among the office’s wide-ranging responsibilities, the Secretary of State is charged with conducting efficient and secure elections, the registration of corporations, and the regulation of securities and professional license holders.

Support for former House Speaker Newt Gingrich’s presidential campaign has virtually evaporated, dropping to just 3 percent among likely Republican primary voters, a new IBOPE Zogby poll reveals.

▪ The day T. Boone Pickens met the Georgia tea party -
2011 Manufacturing Summit in Dalton, GA
3:00 pm May 21, 2011, by two forces eyed each other with some admiration. But don’t expect the relationship to flourish. They don’t agree on the basics.The occasion was the 2011 Manufacturing Summit in Dalton. For the better part of the day, Georgia’s political and economic center shifted from Atlanta to the mountains — a region that, despite hard times, still can claim more manufacturing jobs than any other area of the state.
In front of 900 or so job-hungry citizens, dozens of state officials, business executives and academics pondered an unemployment rate that remains only a whisper under 10 percent. The first prominent speaker was U.S. Rep. Tom Graves of Ranger. More than any other House Republican from Georgia, Graves has embraced the tenets of the tea party movement. He reflects his constituency.
But it was Pickens who drew the crowd. The legendary businessman has spent the past few years pushing Washington toward an energy policy, and he opened with a line familiar to anyone who has sat through any GOP breakfast in the past two years.
“We are dependent on oil from people that don’t like us,” Pickens said. He is a natural gas man and has pushed wind turbines as well. But Pickens says he isn’t picky. Read more

Letter from Sue. . ."Thank you for this incredible honor to continue serving as your Chairman" - Read letter from Sue
Late May 14, 2011
Just home from the GA GOP convention. In case you have not heard. . .Sue Everhart was re-elected chairman of the GA GOP for another two year term. The Governor of GA was heavily booed when he spoke from the stage endorsing his friend and campaign volunteer, Tricia Pridemore of Cobb County. It was not a pretty sight, and the governor did not appear to make many friends from most delegates to the GA GOP Convention. As the Face Book Group says, "The GA GOP belongs to the Grassroots." It does not belong to the Governor or any elected official.
Left: A secret ballot was used in the Chairman's race since some feared publicly voting against the Governor's wishes.

Ga. Gov. Deal signs $18.3B budget, vetoes 9 bills
- Associated Press - May 17, 2011ATLANTA -- Georgia Gov. Nathan Deal has signed an $18.3 billion budget that increases health insurance premiums for state employees, slashes funding for Georgia's college system and cobbles together money to go after tax cheats.
Deal signed the budget before departing Saturday on a trade mission to Europe. His office announced on Tuesday that the governor used his line item veto power to strike funding for 11 bond projects in the university system worth more than $40 million.

COMMENTS ON PEACH PUNDIT
Governor Nathan Deal at GAGOP Convention
May 14, 2011 12:21 pm - byRead comments on Peach Pundit - After all, this is where he broke the news on December 3, 2010, that he was supporting his volunteer Tricia Pridemore for GA GOP Chairman. On that day, Governor-elect Deal's social media director sent an e-mail to all of us on the Deal Team and asked us to go to the Peach Pundit and post favorable comments about TP. MANY of us did not and turned our attention to helping get Sue Everhart re-elected since she is by far the best qualified for this position to lead us in 2011 and 2012. This is not the Nathan Deal that we have known and supported for so many years. Hopefully, he will see the light and work positively with the GA GOP for the next two years.Bettye ChambersFormer Deal Team Member

▪ Gingrich Backs Obamacare Mandate for Health Insurance
Former House Speaker and presidential candidate Newt Gingrich told "Meet the Press" Sunday that he backs a requirement that every citizen purchase or acquire health insurance,
a key component of President Obama's health care law. Gingrich described his plan as a "variation" of Obama's individual mandate. Gingrich's position undermines the key legal challenge made by 26 states against Obamacare and his comments have drawn a sharp reaction from conservatives.

▪ Southern Magnolia, Atlanta's Fox 5 news I-team and D.A. King: Oh my!
A series of events came together this week that make some pretty good fodder for political junkies and should be required in the course of study for public relations students at my alma mater, UGA's Henry Grady School of Journalism.
Thursday evening, Atlanta's Fox 5 News investigative journalist Dale Russell aired a report on Governor Nathan Deal's campaign expenses, tracking a total of $90,000 given to a somewhat mysterious company, Southern Magnolia Capital, which Russel ultimately discovered was linked to Deal's daughter-in-law, Denise Deal.

I believe that Governor Sonny Perdue waved it.Georgia's adjusted gas tax took effect Sunday, a factor not included in AAA's figures. Before, drivers paid 10.1 cents of tax on every gallon. Now they'll pay 12.9 cents. The tax in Georgia is a flat 7.5 cents per gallon, plus an amount based on price.

The video on left highlights the Governor's gala and his candidate for GA GOP Chairman from Cobb County. This was an elegant party for both the Governor and his young lady candidate who has no Republican experience which would qualify her for this high office. Some long time Republicans who are not supporting his candidate were not invited. In fact, GA GOP Chairman Sue Everhart says that she did not receive an invitation. This is MOST unusual.
