The Georgia Republican Party has voted to expel former Lt. Gov. Geoff Duncan from the party, citing his alleged efforts to harm Republican candidates.

On Jan. 6, the decision to cut Duncan's ties to the GOP after years of accusations of disloyalty was approved unanimously and finalized.

Duncan has been accused of undermining GOP candidates, endorsing Democrat opponents, and using his affiliation with the Republican Party for personal gain.

Duncan proposed in a post on X that the resolution was not a productive use of the party's time.

"JoshMcKoon called out the Georgia GOP chair for wasting time on mass deportations, world peace, and global tariffs instead of celebrating a victory. He urged them to take a victory lap instead of lighting another dumpster fire," he wrote.

Duncan is prohibited from accessing any property owned or rented by the Georgia Republican Party and from participating in any events organized by or under the authority of the Georgia Republican Party, as per the resolution.

The Georgia GOP stated that Duncan is ineligible to run as a candidate for the Georgia Republican Party. Additionally, the group declared that his previous GOP nominations for lieutenant governor and state House of Representatives, both of which he won the primary and general elections, have been erased.

Duncan was instructed to stop using the label "Republican" for personal gain or to harm the Republican Party and its candidates.

The state party requested that media outlets describe Duncan as an "expelled Republican" in future references.

Some Republican candidates, including current Lt. Gov. Burt Jones and failed 2022 Senate candidate Herschel Walker, were allegedly undermined and sabotaged by Duncan, according to the resolution.

Duncan publicly endorsed President Biden during the 2024 presidential race, but later criticized him for dropping out and endorsing Vice President Kamala Harris, which he saw as a breach of his loyalty to the GOP.

Previously, Josh McKoon, chair of the Georgia Republican Party, requested that Duncan cease utilizing his Republican affiliation in public and media presentations.

Duncan was accused of making false and exaggerated claims about his education and career in a pattern.

The Georgia GOP accused Duncan of using his CNN commentator role to attack the Republican Party.
