Vice President Mike Pence is set to attend a rally in Macon on Saturday to support Secretary of State Brian Kemp’s bid for governor, days before the contentious GOP runoff is decided.

The White House confirmed the news to The Associated Press on Thursday, one day after President Donald Trump tweeted his “full and total endorsement” for Kemp in the runoff against Lt. Gov. Casey Cagle.

“Brian is tough on crime, strong on the border and illegal immigration. He loves our Military and our Vets and protects our Second Amendment,” Trump wrote.
