Buddy Carter Kicks Off Senate Bid in Georgia

“Rep. Buddy Carter (R-GA) became the first prominent Republican to jump into the race against Sen. Jon Ossoff (D-GA), launching his campaign Thursday with a TV ad that casts him as a pro-Donald Trump “MAGA warrior,” the Atlanta Journal Constitution reports.

“Carter, a six-term Savannah-area incumbent, announced his campaign just days after Gov. Brian Kemp passed on a run, triggering what’s expected to be a GOP free-for-all to challenge the Democrat. About a dozen other Georgia Republicans are also considering bids.”
