Georgia Senate Race Shapes Tuesday Primary Outcome
In Georgia, Sen. David Gambrell, appointed after Russell’s death, seeks re election with a crowded field that includes former Gov. Vandiver and Rep. Sam Nunn. The race centers on turnout and whether Gambrell surpasses 50 percent to avoid a runoff as D C Williams and Rev. Andrew Young also vie for Democratic nominations.
