Buddy Carter, a 68-year-old Georgia congressman and former pharmacy owner, is one of three leading Republicans in Tuesday’s Senate primary.
Trump loyalty defines his pitch: Carter backed overturning the 2020 election, says he has no disagreements with the president and is still pressing for an endorsement that has not come.

His profile also includes a more pragmatic streak on policy, from helping shape February’s drug-cost legislation to working with Democrats on renewable energy while supporting Georgia’s solar and nuclear buildout.
