Georgia elections: Trump connections shape two key House races today
Two major congressional seats in Georgia are up for grabs with Trump-connected candidates facing off. Local voters will also decide on property-tax changes and several state-level positions
In todays Georgia elections‚ a notable Trump-aide is set to grab a congressional seat while another race pits a long-standing rep against an ex-Trump team member (making both contests Trump-connected match-ups)
The state-wide ballot doesnt include any major positions‚ but voters are looking at three key proposals:
- A property-tax value cap
- Two other state-wide measures
- Several local-level choices
Most state House spots arenʼt competitive‚ but some districts might shift the power balance – Democrats aim to cut into the GOPʼs control in a few key match-ups. Mike Collins‚ the current rep whose been serving since the early-90s looks ready to win term number 17 against his Trump-linked opponent
The property-tax proposal‚ which would put limits on home value increases has gotten lots of attention from home-owners and tax experts; its seen as the most important item for many local voters
In the northern part of the state a different race shows Brian Anderson‚ who worked closely with the previous administration heading for an easy win in his first try for office
