Atlanta — Businessman Rick Jackson defeated Lt. Gov. Burt Jones in Georgia’s Republican runoff Tuesday, securing roughly 52–53% of the vote and the party’s gubernatorial nomination to face Democrat Keisha Lance Bottoms on Nov. 3. Jackson, who largely self-funded his campaign with more than $101 million, led once precincts completed reporting. The outcome followed high-profile endorsements and intense ad spending: former Attorney General Chris Carr endorsed Jackson after finishing third in the May 19 primary, while former President Donald Trump had backed Jones. Runoff turnout exceeded 488,000 voters, Jones conceded, and both campaigns are now pivoting to statewide general election strategies ahead of the November contest.
