Tuesday, June 16 — Georgia Republicans may be handing Jon Ossoff a Senate seat while they fight each other in prime time.
Rush and Reagan are tracking live results from two high-stakes GOP runoffs: Burt Jones versus Rick Jackson for governor, and Mike Collins versus Derek Dooley for Senate. They break down what Trump's endorsement record actually means when the scoreboard is live, including a sharp look at Jackson's $100 million spending machine and the nickname that captures his whole campaign. They dig into the Collins-Dooley race as a Kemp-versus-Trump proxy fight, complete with a damning anonymous quote from inside the Georgia GOP. And they put Ossoff's $31 million cash-on-hand advantage in its proper context — a gift from months of Republican infighting, not Democratic strength.
The Senate majority math is unforgiving. Georgia is a load-bearing seat, not optional insurance, and Cook Political Report has already moved it to Lean Democrat on a state Trump won. Who wins tonight shapes how much runway Republicans have left before November.
Weigh in — did tonight's results change your read on Georgia? And check back for the first post-runoff fundraising filing. That number will tell you everything.
