A MAGA candidate has found himself embroiled in controversy after he was caught peddling the same high-profile campaign endorsements as his opponent. <\/p>\n

Rep. Mike Collins, who is battling former football coach Derek Dooley in a heated GOP primary runoff in the Georgia Senate race, has repeatedly listed sheriffs, commissioners, and local officials as supporters\u2014even as several of them publicly backed his opponent or said they never approved the endorsement at all.<\/p>\n

\n

Among the officials tied to the endorsement confusion was Wayne County Sheriff Chuck Moseley, whose name appeared on Collins\u2019 campaign website before later being removed. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve already talked to them twice. They\u2019ve had their opportunity to correct it, and they haven\u2019t,\u201d Moseley told the Daily Caller.<\/p>\n

Moseley made clear he was never in Collins\u2019 corner.<\/p>\n

\u201cI wouldn\u2019t vote for [Collins] if he\u2019s the only one running,\u201d the sheriff added.<\/p>\n

Mike Collins\u2019 office did not immediately respond to The Daily Beast\u2019s request for comment. <\/p>\n

Other officials claimed they were blindsided to discover their names attached to Collins\u2019 campaign.<\/p>\n

GOP Grady County Chair Jeff Jolly told the outlet he questioned County Sheriff Earl Prince and County Commissioner Sam Kines after seeing them listed as Collins supporters.<\/p>\n

\u201cI talked to each of them in private, and I said, \u2018Look, you do what you want to do, but for my own sake, I need to know why you endorsed Mike Collins,\u2019\u201d Jolly said. \u201cBoth of them looked at me funny, like, \u2018What are you talking about?\u2019 They didn\u2019t know anything about it.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n

Prince told The Atlanta Journal-Constitution he had \u201cnever spoken to Mike Collins or any of his people.\u201d<\/p>\n

Kines similarly said he was shocked to discover his name had appeared on Collins\u2019 endorsement page after what he described as nothing more than a \u201cgeneric reply\u201d to a campaign event invite.<\/p>\n

\u201cI didn\u2019t think nothing else about it,\u201d Kines told the outlet. Kines has since thrown his support behind Dooley, calling him \u201cthe leading one that I would vote for.\u201d<\/p>\n

Worth County Sheriff Don Whitaker was also listed on Collins\u2019 website despite backing Dooley. Unlike some of the others, Whitaker attributed the issue to a communication breakdown rather than intentional deception.<\/p>\n

\u201cI have no problems with them, but I believe it was a miscommunication,\u201d Whitaker told the AJC. After speaking with Collins\u2019 campaign team, Whitaker said his name will be removed from the endorsement list. \u201cObviously, it wasn\u2019t. I am endorsing Derek Dooley,\u201d he said of the congressional hopeful.<\/p>\n

Not every disputed endorsement stemmed from confusion. Some officials acknowledged they had simply changed sides during the race.<\/p>\n

Jutt Howard, who appeared in Collins campaign posts last July, later surfaced in Dooley\u2019s campaign posts. Howard told the Caller he initially backed Collins before ultimately switching his support to Dooley after reconsidering the race.<\/p>\n

The endorsement drama erupted just days after Collins\u2019 campaign faced backlash over a crude social media post tied to rape allegations involving former Today<\/i> host Matt Lauer.<\/p>\n

Last week, a Dooley campaign adviser celebrated polling showing Collins\u2019 lead narrowing in the GOP primary. A \u201cMike Collins War Room\u201d account tied to Collins\u2019 campaign responded by writing: \u201cMatt Laurer\u2019s [sic] sloppy seconds chiming in to take an L.\u201d<\/p>\n

The post sparked immediate outrage because the adviser\u2019s wife had previously accused Lauer of rape before later attempting suicide.<\/p>\n

Now the two Republicans are barreling toward a tense June 16 runoff after Collins captured 41 percent of the vote in the May 19 primary while Dooley pulled in 30 percent.<\/p>\n
