On November 3, 2026, Democrat Keisha Lance Bottoms was elected as governor of Georgia, making her the first Black woman to hold this office in any U.S. state and delivering Democrats their first victory there after over two decades of Republican control. Bottoms, a former mayor of Atlanta, defeated Republican businessman Rick Jackson, who spent more than $200 million of his personal fortune on the campaign but failed to secure the win. CNN and NBC News projected Bottoms as the winner, marking a significant moment in U.S. political history.

Why this leaning score

This article does not take a side on a contested political question, so it has no leaning score. That is an answer rather than a gap: a match report or a rescue can be warmly or critically written without being left or right, and scoring it anyway is how approval of a subject gets recorded as a political position.
