在周二举行的佐治亚州共和党州务卿初选中，弗农·琼斯和蒂姆·弗莱明未能获得至少50%的选票，将进入决选。
共和党候选人阵营包括琼斯、弗莱明、加布里埃尔·斯特林、凯尔文·金和特德·梅茨；民主党候选人卡姆·阿什林、达纳·巴雷特、小阿德里安·康塞诺里和彭妮·布朗·雷诺兹则角逐本党提名，争夺佐治亚州最高选举官员职位。
这场选举凸显了2020年美国总统大选引发的争议——包括唐纳德·特朗普总统所称的选举被窃取的说法——在多年后仍在塑造有关选举法和选举安全的辩论。

6月16日决选的获胜者将晋级11月的大选。届时，这个负责选民登记、选举认证和选票管理的职位的控制权，预计仍将是这个美国竞争最激烈的摇摆州之一备受关注的议题。
斯特林曾是佐治亚州州务卿办公室前首席运营官，在公开为佐治亚州处理2020年大选的方式辩护后，获得了全州范围的知名度，随后参选该职位。
琼斯曾是民主党州议员，后来倒向特朗普阵营，他以坚定支持特朗普的形象参选，并成为该州选举制度的激烈批评者。

High stakes in Georgia primaries for Senate and governor
Fox News correspondent Madison Scarpino reports on Georgia’s crucial primaries on ‘Special Report.’

Vernon Jones and Tim Fleming are heading to a runoff after neither claimed at least 50% of the vote in Georgia’s Republican primary for secretary of state on Tuesday.
The Republican field included Jones, Fleming, Gabriel Sterling, Kelvin King and Ted Metz, while Democrats Cam Ashling, Dana Barrett, Adrian Consonery Jr. and Penny Brown Reynolds competed for their party’s nomination for Georgia’s top election officer.
The race underscored how disputes stemming from the 2020 presidential election, including claims from President Donald Trump that the contest was stolen, continue to shape debates over voting laws and election security years later.

The winner of the runoff on June 16 will advance to the general election in November, where control of the office overseeing voter registration, election certification and ballot administration is expected to remain a closely watched issue in one of the nation’s most competitive battleground states.
Sterling, Georgia’s former chief operating officer in the secretary of state’s office, entered the race with statewide name recognition after publicly defending Georgia’s handling of the 2020 election.
Jones, a former Democratic state lawmaker turned Trump ally, campaigned as a staunch supporter of the president and emerged as a fierce critic of the state’s election system.

King is a general contractor who previously ran for U.S. Senate and is married to State Election Board member and conservative commentator Janelle King.
Fleming previously worked in the secretary of state’s office when current Republican Gov. Brian Kemp held the position. The former chairman of the Georgia Republican Party pitched himself as a conservative focused on tightening election procedures.
