ATLANTA (AP) — Brian Jack sought to make a debate among Republicans for an open Georgia congressional seat all about his close ties with Donald Trump, while the other contenders are ignoring Trump’s endorsement of Jack. Five Republicans running for their party’s nomination in Georgia’s 3rd Congressional met Sunday in an Atlanta Press Club debate.

Others largely passed on the chance to attack Jack, although Crane suggested that Washington Republicans are trying to anoint Jack.
