Jackson claims victory in historic GOP runoff upset
Billionaire healthcare executive Rick Jackson has pulled off a massive upset in the Republican primary runoff for Governor, officially claiming victory over incumbent Lieutenant Governor Burt Jones on Tuesday night. The Associated Press formally called the high-stakes race after final regional data dumps pushed Jackson to a definitive 53% to 47% victory. The outcome marks a stunning shift in the state's political landscape, as Jackson’s record-breaking, self-funded outsider campaign successfully overthrew the combined administrative weight of President Donald Trump and Governor Brian Kemp, who had both heavily backed Jones.
