ATLANTA (AP) Latham Saddler, a Navy veteran and former Trump administration official, has joined the Republican race to challenge Georgia Democratic U.S. Sen. Raphael Warnock in 2022.
Saddler announced his candidacy Thursday, calling for patriotic unity. He s the second Republican to get into the race, after Marietta contractor Kelvin King announced his run Monday.
Others are also likely to seek the GOP nomination. Warnock, who defeated Republican Kelly Loeffler in a January runoff, has to run again in 2022 for a full six-year term in the Senate because he’s filling the unexpired term of retired U.S. Sen Johnny Isakson.
