Georgia NOW News for Tuesday March 10, 2026

Georgia’s primary ballots are now set ahead of the May 19 elections. In the open 10th Congressional District, three candidates from each party are competing after Rep. Mike Collins entered the U.S. Senate race. In U.S. House District 1, former Rep. Buddy Carter’s Senate bid has left the seat open, drawing eight Democrats and six Republicans into the primary. Lawmakers are also advancing Senate Bill 482, which would require people requesting mugshots or police body camera footage to appear in person and sign a notarized statement promising not to misuse the material. Supporters say it protects people whose charges were dropped, while critics warn it could limit public oversight of law enforcement. Meanwhile, voters in Georgia’s 14th Congressional District are casting ballots in a special election to replace former Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene. With 17 candidates on the ballot, a runoff is widely expected. President Donald Trump has endorsed district attorney Clay Fuller, while Democrat Sean Harris, a veteran and farmer, is emerging as a leading challenger. And in Fulton County, a judge ruled District Attorney Fani Willis cannot intervene in the legal fight over attorney fees tied to the dismissed election interference case involving Donald Trump. Trump and several co-defendants are seeking more than $16 million from the county under a state law allowing defendants to recover costs when a case is dropped. Tune in 24/7 to Georgia NOW.
