Perdue Wins Georgia U.S. Senate Republican Runoff

(DG) Chief Executive Officer David Perdue won a divisive primary for Georgia’s Republican U.S. Senate nomination, a contest that raised doubts about the party’s prospects for holding a seat that may prove pivotal in November’s election. Georgia offers Democrats one of their few chances to pick up a Republican-held seat and improve their odds of maintaining a majority in the U.S. Senate.
