Hammer Down! pic.twitter.com/zfol9yBXdN — Mike Collins (@MikeCollinsGA) June 17, 2026 Collins and Dooley advanced to a runoff after neither candidate managed to win over 50% of the vote in last month’s Georgia GOP primary. President Trump didn’t give his coveted endorsement to Rep. Collins until this past weekend — a move that proved to be pivotal in helping him secure a win. Now, the goal is to oust Ossoff and secure another Trump-backed Republican seat in the Senate! Fox News reported further: The Trump-backed Collins on Tuesday defeated former college football coach Derek Dooley in the Republican runoff election, the Associated Press reports, and will face Democratic Sen. Jon Ossoff in November’s election in a race that’s among a handful that will likely decide if the GOP holds its slim majority in the chamber in this autumn’s midterm elections. Republicans view Ossoff as the most vulnerable Senate Democrat seeking re-election and are heavily targeting the first-term senator. Collins, a two-term federal lawmaker who represents Georgia’s 10th Congressional District, which is located between Atlanta and Augusta, is the son of the late Rep. Mac Collins, and is the founder and co-owner, along with his wife, of a trucking company. He and Dooley, a lawyer, a former University of Tennessee football coach and the son of legendary University of Georgia head football coach Vince Dooley, were the top two finishers in a crowded field of candidates that also included Rep. Buddy Carter. But since no one topped 50% in last month’s primary, Collins and Dooley advanced to Tuesday’s runoff election. While Collins showcased his MAGA credentials and support for the president, Trump remained neutral in the Georgia primary and runoff elections for Senate until Saturday night. “It’s an honor to have that endorsement. It just shows that he has confidence that we know how to win this race, we know we’re in the lead in this thing,” Collins told Fox News Digital on Sunday, hours after landing Trump’s endorsement.
