He is a candidate for Lieutenant Governor of Georgia in the 2026 election cycle.
Supports eliminating or sharply reducing Georgia’s state income tax, opposes tax increases, and favors tax cuts and limiting government spending while seeking to preserve services through other measures. Has served on and been appointed to Senate committees focused on reducing or eliminating the income tax.
Supports reducing government regulation in healthcare and expanding market competition; has led efforts to repeal or reform Georgia’s Certificate of Need laws. Has expressed opposition to expanding government-run coverage and has promoted free-market approaches to lower costs and increase choice.
Greg Dolezal supports stronger immigration enforcement and border controls, including construction of a border wall and infrastructure to secure the border, and he advocates enforcing federal immigration laws and upholding Georgia’s ban on sanctuary cities. His public materials emphasize stricter control of entry rather than expanded legal pathways or asylum protections.
Public records and campaign coverage do not show a clear, comprehensive position on abortion; reporting notes he has discussed contraceptive access in the context of states with severe abortion bans but does not articulate a full pro‑choice or pro‑life policy. Available material indicates pragmatic comments about increasing access to contraception rather than a definitive stance on abortion restrictions or codifying Roe v. Wade.
Greg Dolezal has a professional background in the oil and gas sector and has acted in the Georgia Senate on electricity and utility matters tied to data center growth, focusing on limiting rate impacts to consumers and scrutinizing utility planning. Public records and reporting show involvement with industry and utility issues rather than advocacy for aggressive emissions limits or Green New Deal–style policies.
Supports strong Second Amendment protections, has sponsored/co-sponsored legislation described as Second Amendment Preservation/Constitutional Carry, and is rated highly by conservative and pro-gun organizations. Advocates resisting federal gun restrictions and backing pro-gun state policies.
Dolezal’s odds jumped back to 60% after AJC coverage still described the GOP primary as a crowded, unsettled race, making this a meaningful repricing rather than a settled frontrunner case.
Greg Dolezal now leads the Georgia Republican Lieutenant Governor nominee race with 60% odds, ahead of the prior leader.
