Election Day in Georgia: Polls are open statewide for the May 19 primary, with voters choosing in governor, U.S. Senate, all 14 House races, and Georgia Supreme Court contests—plus a fight over access and transparency as three candidates sued Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger to allow observation of election-night tabulation, calling it a “secret bunker.” GOP power test: Nationally, Trump’s endorsement strategy is on display as he backs hardliner Ken Paxton in Texas, while Georgia’s primary also serves as a national barometer for whether Republicans who break with Trump get punished. NAACP pressure campaign: The NAACP launched “Out of Bounds,” urging Black athletes and fans to boycott certain major public college sports programs in states it says are restricting Black voting power. Local headlines: An Atlanta-area felon was arrested in Alachua after a stolen-car chase that turned up a stolen pistol and oxycodone without a prescription. Sports & culture: Atlanta is gearing up for World Cup matches, and Georgia baseball is “playing free” in the SEC tournament after earning the top seed.
