In a closely watched Republican primary, former President Donald Trump has endorsed Mike Collins over Derek Dooley, paving the way for Collins to secure the nomination in Georgia's 10th Congressional District. The move comes as a significant blow to Dooley, a well-known football coach and son of legendary Georgia Bulldogs coach Vince Dooley. Collins, a businesswoman and daughter of Rep. Mac Collins, now has a strong chance of facing off against Democrat Jon Ossoff in the November midterms. With Trump's backing, Collins is likely to gain a significant advantage in the Republican primary, setting the stage for a highly competitive general election.
