Former President Trump on Monday endorsed a challenger to Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger (R) following a months-long feud with Georgia’s top Republicans over election fraud claims.

Trump will back Rep. Jody Hice (R-Ga.), who will run for secretary of state rather than seek reelection to Georgia’s 10th Congressional District.

“Jody has been a steadfast fighter for conservative Georgia values and is a staunch ally of the America First agenda,” Trump said in a statement.

“Unlike the current Georgia Secretary of State, Jody leads out front with integrity,” he added. “I have 100 percent confidence in Jody to fight for free, fair and secure election in Georgia, in line with our beloved U.S. constitution. Jody will stop the fraud and get honesty into our elections. Jody loves the people of Georgia and has my complete and total endorsement.”
