Georgia is a swing state where both Democrats and Republicans are deciding the direction their parties will take in the fall in races for the senate and the governor's mansion.

The May 19 primaries come as Georgia remains one of the nation’s premier battleground states. Republicans still dominate the state's General Assembly.

Voting will conclude in the swing state of Georgia in competitive primaries for governor and a U.S. Senate seat that could decide control of the closely divided chamber.

The GOP primary campaign to succeed term-limited Gov. Brian Kemp (R-GA) has marked the most expensive in Georgia's history.
