President Donald Trump's repeated false claims about his 2020 election loss is almost certain to play a role in Georgia's four-week runoff campaign as Republican voters choose nominees for governor, secretary of state and the U.S. Senate. Among the contenders are one of Trump’s alternate electors in his attempt to overturn Democrat Joe Biden’s win in the state. The GOP runoff also features a Trump acolyte who won his first congressional race while saying Trump won in 2020 and a secretary of state hopeful who echoes Trump’s conspiracy theories as he vies to become Georgia’s top elections official. To be clear, Georgia’s presidential votes were counted three times, including once by hand, and each one affirmed Biden’s victory.
