Donald Trump flew to Georgia to campaign with Republican candidates for the Senate and governor. Senate candidate Mike Collins faces Democratic Sen. Jon Ossoff. Gubernatorial nominee Rick Jackson is taking on former Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms. Trump's visit Friday aimed to boost Republican voter turnout. But Collins and Jackson will likely need more than Trump's core supporters to win, and Trump's popularity has declined in Georgia. The rally was the first time Jackson and Collins appeared at the same venue this fall. That's a contrast to Ossoff's and Bottoms' multiple joint rallies.
