Georgia Republicans have settled two U.S. House nominations in runoffs.

A Georgia congressional candidate convicted for illegally demonstrating inside the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, has walked out of a televised debate with a fellow Republican.

Katie Britt has won the Republican nomination for Senate in Alabama, defeating six-term Congressman Mo Brooks in a primary runoff after former President Donald Trump endorsed and then un-endorsed him.

John Lewis, with whom she served in Congress for 33 years, and their last conversation the day before he died. He always worked on the side of the angels and now he is with them, Pelosi said. Pelosi will preside in the House later Monday morning during a moment of silence in Lewis' honor. For now, Pelosi said the congressional delegation from Georgia, under Rep.
