Georgia gubernatorial candidate and former Sen. David Perdue and incumbent Gov. Brian Kemp pulled no punches in attacking each other Thursday night in a debate for the Republican Party nomination for governor.

In the second of three debates before early voting begins May 2, the two Republican candidates sparred over familiar issues like the handling of the 2020 election, former President Trump's endorsement, crime in Georgia, and who had the better plans to stave off economic pain from record-high inflation.

Each candidate returned to familiar lines of attack related to the 2020 election, with Perdue charging that Kemp had divided the Republican Party and lost the trust of voters.
