Darrell Issa on Georgia-06: ‘I Don’t Know that We Can Call It a Great Victory for Republicans’

‘What I do think is Republicans have to come together’

EXCERPT:

ISSA: "Well, I don’t know that we can call it a great victory for Republicans, but when you have 11 candidates and lots of outside groups bashing each of the Republicans, you’re going to tend to depress the vote. But in an 11-way race, the now Republican nominee is looking at a district that only performed 1 point differently in this race than they did in the presidential race. I think that’s where you have it. This was a Trump district by six points, 53-47. So it’s not a lot different. This is a well-educated suburban district. What I do think is that Republicans have to come together. We have a common candidate now that will vote for a conservative agenda, a pro-business agenda. That’s really what Republicans have to debate going into the general, and I think they’ll be just fine."
