Former Georgia congressman Mac Collins has decided to give the July primary a pass.

He’s told the Macon Telegraph that he won’t run fight Republican Rick Goddard, the favorite of the party establishment, for the right to go after U.S. Rep. Jim Marshall, the Macon Democrat.

“I’m just going to sit this one out,” Collins said in a succinct voice-mail left with the newspaper.
