Former Athens Congressman Paul Broun, who came up short in last month’s Republican primary, is endorsing Mike Collins in the June 21 runoff against Vernon Jones. It’s the race to replace 10th District Congressman Jody Hice, who lost his bid to unseat Republican Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger. Broun becomes the latest former rival to back Collins, who also claims the support of David Curry, Marc McMain, and Mitchell Swan.
“After careful consideration and looking at the facts, I believe that the best bet on having a congressman to represent the people of the 10th District in Georgia will be to elect Mike Collins,” says Broun. “I endorse and will vote for Mike Collins in the Primary Runoff on June 21st!”
Jones, a former state Rep and DeKalb County government CEO, has the support of, among others, former President Donald J. Trump. He and Collins debate tonight in Atlanta.
Early voting in the congressional runoff begins Saturday. The advance voting in Athens takes place at the Elections Office on Washington Street.
