Trump's false claims about the 2020 election influence Georgia GOP runoff nominations

Donald Trump's repeated false claims that he won the 2020 presidential election in Georgia are affecting a four-week GOP runoff campaign for nominations for governor, secretary of state, and U.S. Senate. Several candidates with ties to Trump or who echo his election conspiracy theories are running. Georgia's votes were counted three times, including by hand, each confirming Biden's victory.
