HD 114 Candidate Tim Fleming - First Report
Searching for the REAL Story of Brian Kemp's longtime right-hand man & current lobbyist & political consultant
Tim Fleming, after “leaving” the Governor’s Office, became a political consultant & worked on the debacle of the Kelly Loefller 2020 Senate campaign in addition to becoming a registered lobbyist here in the home state.
From a Source:
Tim Fleming is a Registered Georgia lobbyist. One of the groups he is a lobbyist for is LIVE OAK PUBLIC STRATEGIES, LLC. The address on file is:
LIVE OAK PUBLIC STRATEGIES, LLC
PO BOX 2386
COVINGTON, GA 30015
(404) 285 - 3569
Tim Fleming’s registered phone number is (404) 285 - 3569 — the same as LIVE OAK PUBLIC STRATEGIES, LLC. Also interesting to note that Tim Fleming’s PO BOX is 2366...just a few boxes away.
LIVE OAK PUBLIC STRATEGIES, LLC shares the same registered address as:
CHARLES(CHUCK) MICHAEL HARPER
PO BOX 2386
COVINGTON, GA 30015
(404) 285 - 4729
Charles Harper was also a lobbyist for ELECTION SYSTEMS AND SOFTWARE (the company who sold the state Dominion) and GEORGIA SECRETARY OF STATE. He is also lobbying for LIVE OAK PUBLIC STRATEGIES, LLC (presumably he and Tim’s company). Harper is also Brian Kemp’s Deputy Chief of Staff.
Both Tim and Charles show payments from LIVE OAK PUBLIC STRATEGIES, LLC exceeding $10,000. So why would LIVE OAK PUBLIC STRATEGIES, LLC (Presumably their company) pay them to lobby for them. Also, it seems concerning to have ties that closely to someone who has received money from a Dominion lobbying group in 2018 right before he was hired by Brian Kemp and the state paid over $100 million to purchase voting machines from that same company.

These are the questions I’d like answered by Mr. Fleming:
1. How much money have you made as a lobbyist the last two years?
2. Same with your political consulting work?
3. Do you - or any consulting firm, LLC or other entity you’re involved with - currently do work with Brian Kemp as a Candidate or in his role as Governor?
4. Isn’t it true that the process for selecting the new voting machines that eventually went to Dominion started prior to 2019 & in fact begun when Kemp (and later his successor) & you were a part of the Secretary of State’s office?

I’m going to email Tim these questions tomorrow.
