Georgia Runoff Set: Keisha Lance Bottoms cruised to the Democratic nomination for governor, while Republicans chose a June 16 runoff between Lt. Gov. Burt Jones and healthcare billionaire Rick Jackson—both election deniers who knocked out Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger. U.S. Senate Battle: In the GOP Senate primary, Rep. Mike Collins and Derek Dooley will face off in a runoff, setting up a likely showdown with Sen. Jon Ossoff. Lt. Governor Drama: Georgia’s lieutenant governor primaries are also headed to runoffs, with Democrats Josh McLaurin and Nabilah Parkes advancing. Local Politics: Bulloch County’s school board race stayed with incumbent Glennera Martin, but the district’s code-of-conduct and bullying policy sparked clashes. Economy & Tech: Gas prices hit the highest level in four years, and Hyundai plans to deploy 25,000 Atlas humanoid robots—first at its Georgia plant in 2028. National Politics: Trump-backed Ed Gallrein ousted Kentucky Rep. Thomas Massie in another GOP test of Trump’s pull.
