Race summary
Dr. John Cowan easily won the GOP primary runoff for Georgia’s 11th District and should easily win the general election to replace Rep. Barry Loudermilk. Though Cowan has been a strident critic of Trump in the past, he campaigned as a staunch conservative and was backed by House Freedom Caucus Chairman Andy Harris.Key Dates
