Summary
Mike Collins, Rick Jackson, Josh McLaurin and Greg Dolezal secured Georgia runoff nominations, with Collins taking the GOP Senate race 383,444 votes to 305,625 over Derek Dooley.
The other called statewide runoffs were similarly close: Jackson beat Burt Jones 52.6%-47.4% for the Republican governor nomination, McLaurin won the Democratic lieutenant governor race 54.9%-45.1%, and Dolezal took the GOP lieutenant governor contest 54.2%-45.8%.
Down-ballot legislative runoffs also produced winners across both parties, including Ruwa Romman in House District 7, Marc McMain in House District 46 and Jack Miller in House District 47.
The results finalize key statewide primary fields ahead of November, with Collins already set to challenge Democratic Sen. Jon Ossoff in the general election.
