What happened
The gubernatorial race in Georgia continues with candidates Rick Jackson and Keisha Lance Bottoms campaigning across the state. Rick Jackson stated that his priorities include lowering property taxes, increasing teacher pay, and making housing more affordable if elected. Keisha Lance Bottoms met with community leaders in metro Atlanta while the race remains close, with 8% of voters still undecided.
Why it matters
The contest is framed by policy planks such as Medicaid expansion and tax cuts, which could influence state spending and business costs. Polling suggests that Republican support among Latino voters has eroded following the Trump administration’s immigration enforcement operations.
Jackson and Jones ran in a primary runoff in Georgia, setting up Jackson to face Keisha Lance Bottoms in the general election.
