Georgia runoff elections decide GOP nominees for governor and Senate seat

Republican voters in Georgia will cast ballots on Tuesday to select their party’s nominees for governor and an open Senate seat. The primaries are part of a broader runoff process following earlier primary contests. CBS News correspondent Skyler Henry reported from Atlanta on the high turnout expectations. Candidates include well‑known state figures and newcomers seeking the party’s endorsement. The outcomes will shape the general election battles against Democratic opponents. Early polls show a competitive race for both offices. The runoff results will be certified later in the week.

The GOP nominees will challenge Democrats in key statewide races that could shift legislative balance.
