Prior to running for office, Taylor worked as a teacher and educator in Baxley, Georgia. In January 2021, Taylor announced she would be running as a candidate in the 2022 Georgia gubernatorial election. Her campaign slogan of "Jesus Guns Babies" received widespread mockery. Taylor came third in the primary, receiving just 3.4% of the vote. She refused to concede her loss, alleging that the election was "rigged". In April 2023, Taylor was elected as the Republican Chair of Georgia's 1st district. Views 
During her 2022 gubernatorial campaign, Taylor promoted conspiracy theories about state Republican leaders being secret communists and Democrats being Satanic pedophiles. She also called the Georgia Guidestones "Satanic" and made their removal part of her campaign platform; the monument was later bombed. Following the bombing, Taylor said she believed God had destroyed the monument. In May 2023, Taylor promoted the Flat Earth conspiracy theory on her Jesus, Guns, & Babies podcast, claiming that globes are part of a conspiracy to "brainwash" people into believing the Earth is a globe. Taylor's remarks were later parodied by comedian Blaire Erskine. In October 2023, Taylor accused Taylor Swift of including "satanic nods" on her show and "celebrating witchcraft." Following the death of Matthew Perry, Taylor suggested that being vaccinated against COVID-19 was the cause. Personal life 
Kandiss is married to Ryan Taylor, an educator. They have three children. In July 2022, Taylor said her family was the victim of a swatting call. References
