AINews Summary

Georgia Republicans held their gubernatorial runoff on June 16 to pick their 2026 nominee. Burt Jones and Rick Jackson were the finalists, with polls showing Jones slightly ahead and Trump backing Jones. The winner will face Keisha Lance Bottoms in November. Jones appears to have a modest edge from polling and Trump’s endorsement, but Jackson’s heavy spending keeps the race competitive. The market likely still prices in meaningful uncertainty until the runoff result is fully settled.
