Former football coach Derek Dooley says Georgia voters should send him to the Senate because he's a political outsider. It’s unclear whether the strategy will work in an era where President Donald Trump’s antiestablishment movement dominates Washington. Dooley believes his work on the sidelines will help him connect with voters from all backgrounds and represent them better than the two congressmen he’s running against in the May primary. But critics note that Dooley went 20 years without voting until the 2024 presidential election. He's backed by Georgia's governor, Brian Kemp. Republicans are trying to oust Democrat Jon Ossoff.
