What changed
The spouse field in the infobox was changed from `[[Marty Kemp|Marty Argo]]` to `[[Marty Argo]]`, removing the display-name alias. In the opening paragraph, "and businessman" was added to the description of Kemp. A new paragraph was added after the opening section stating that Kemp is a graduate of the University of Georgia and that he operated businesses in agriculture, financial services, and real estate before entering politics.
What changed
The only change is in the "Federal efforts to secure state voting systems" section, where the formatting of "Jeh Johnson" was altered. In the earlier version, the name appeared as `[[ Jeh Johnson ]]` (with extra spaces inside the brackets), while in the later version it appears as `Jeh Johnson` (plain text, no wiki-link markup). No factual content, dates, names, or quoted material were added or removed.

What changed
A substantial passage was added to the Secretary of State section describing Kemp's rejection of the U.S. Intelligence Community's conclusion that Russia interfered in the 2016 election, along with his opposition to the Obama administration's efforts to strengthen election security and improve access to federal cybersecurity resources. The addition includes citations to The Washington Post and other sources. The only other change visible in the diff is a minor formatting difference in the infobox website template tag (`url` changed to `URL`).

What changed
The infobox was updated to add a new office entry for Chair of the Republican Governors Association (with term dates November 20, 2024 to November 18, 2025, predecessor Bill Lee, and successor Greg Gianforte), shifting the Secretary of State entry from office1 to office2 and the State Senate entry from office2 to office3. The photo was changed from "Brian Kemp 2023.jpg" (captioned "Kemp in 2023") to "Brian Kemp 2025 (cropped).jpg" (captioned "Kemp in 2025"), and the signature file was changed from "Briankemptracedsig.png" to "Briankempsig.png". The short description was changed from "Current governor of Georgia" to "Governor of Georgia since 2019," the lieutenant governor field was reformatted to remove the date ranges, and a "relatives" field listing Bill Cowsert and Bob Argo was removed.

What changed
The infobox was updated to reflect Kemp's status as the sitting 83rd Governor of Georgia rather than Governor-elect, with corresponding changes to fields like "order," "lieutenant," and "residence." The opening paragraph was rewritten to describe Kemp as "serving as the 83rd governor of Georgia since January 2019" rather than as "Governor-elect" who "served as" Secretary of State. The article gained approximately 55,846 characters of additional content beyond what is shown in this diff excerpt, suggesting substantial additions spread throughout the article body.

What changed
The infobox was updated to reflect Kemp's new role as Governor-elect rather than Secretary of State, with new fields added for lieutenant governor (Geoff Duncan), updated term dates (January 14, 2019), and predecessor/successor information, while the former Secretary of State details were moved to a secondary office block. The opening paragraph was rewritten to describe Kemp as "Governor-elect" rather than current Secretary of State, and added details about his appointment by Sonny Perdue, his 2010 election and 2014 reelection, and a reference to his January 14, 2019 inauguration date. The birth name field "Brian Porter Kemp" and a formatted marriage template for his spouse were added to the infobox.
What changed
The article gained a new infobox section with fields for officeholder details like name, image, office, governor, term_start, term_end, predecessor, successor, state, state_senate1, district1, term_start1, term_end1, predecessor1, successor1, birth_date, birth_place, death_date, death_place, party, and spouse. The main text of the article was also expanded to include additional biographical details and political history, such as Kemp's service in the Georgia State Senate from 2003 to 2007, his 2010 and 2014 reelections as Secretary of State, and the results of those elections. The article now also states that Kemp is currently serving as Secretary of State.
