Jones Loans Himself $10M for Governor Bid
Update: 2025-12-05
Description
Georgias ethics panel allows Republican Lieutenant Governor Burt Jones to loan $10 million to his gubernatorial campaign, citing a state law that permits leadership committees to raise unlimited funds. This decision, despite objections from Attorney General Chris Carr, has raised concerns about fairness in campaign financing. Jones, who previously claimed a net worth of $700,000, loaned the funds to his leadership committee when announcing his run for governor. The primaries are scheduled for May, with the general election in November 2026.
