Rick Jackson's $87M Ad Blitz | Savannah News

Georgia’s gubernatorial race is heating up as Republican Rick Jackson, a billionaire healthcare CEO, drops a staggering $87 million on ads—topping his prior $100 million self-funded campaign. Running against Democrat Keisha Lance Bottoms, Jackson’s blitz aims to reach every corner of the state, even as it features sharp attacks on Bottoms and evokes Atlanta unrest. Critics, including Bottoms’ team, accuse him of using taxpayer-funded contracts to buy the election, painting him as self-serving and aligned with Trump. The race is now a battle over money, message, and motive—with the November 3 election looming and the spotlight squarely on Jackson’s unprecedented spending and its implications for democracy.
