💨 Abstract

Democratic Georgia state Senator Josh McLaurin announced his run for lieutenant governor in 2026, vowing to oppose President Trump's policies. Burt Jones, the current Republican lieutenant governor, is expected to run for governor. McLaurin sees a threat to Georgia's largest port from Trump's tariff policies and wants the state to block policies like Medicaid expansion and gun safety laws, which he claims Republicans have been hindering.
