Herschel Walker is endorsing neither Gov. Brian Kemp (R) nor former Sen. David Perdue (R-GA) in the heated Republican primary race for Georgia governor, according to a recording published Wednesday by the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
Walker, a former football star and frontrunning candidate for U.S. Senate, said while speaking to a group of students at the University of North Georgia this week that he is “mad at both” Kemp and Perdue.
“I don’t support either of them. I’m mad at both of them. I speak the truth, and let me tell you why,” Walker began.
“I’ve known Gov. Kemp since I was 16 years old. I’ve known Sen. Perdue since I was 19. This is what I want to say to everyone here: I want to bring this party together,” Walker said.
