Voters head to the polls tomorrow in primary runoffs and special elections across Georgia, Alabama, California and the District of Columbia. Georgia and Alabama stage statewide runoffs for U.S. Senate, governor and other offices after the May 19 primaries. California holds a special primary for its 14th congressional district while D.C. conducts its mayoral primary and a special city council general election.
Georgia Runoffs Feature Open Governor Race
Georgia conducts primary runoffs for U.S. Senate, governor and additional statewide offices. Gov. Brian Kemp is term-limited, leaving the Republican nomination open. The runoff features Rick Jackson, a billionaire healthcare executive who self-funded more than $30 million; Lt. Gov. Burt Jones, endorsed three times by former President Trump and holding roughly $3.9 million raised.
A runoff occurs when no candidate clears 50 percent in the initial primary. Eight Republicans appear on the governor ballot overall. The June 16 results will set the nominees for November. Ballotpedia tracks the full calendar.
Alabama Stages Senate and State Runoffs
Alabama holds Republican and Democratic runoffs for U.S. Senate along with various state and federal offices. The contests follow the May 19 primary and will finalize party nominees ahead of the general election. The Alabama Secretary of State lists the schedule.
Runoffs advance the top two finishers from each primary when no majority emerged. Voters decide Senate nominees on both sides plus down-ballot races that shape the fall ballot.
