Guy W. Millner (born February 16, 1936) is an American multi-millionaire businessman who ran as a Republican for Governor of Georgia in 1994 and 1998, and United States Senator from Georgia in 1996, losing all three races.
Millner came closest to victory in 1994, winning 49% of the vote against incumbent Governor Zell Miller's 51%, after defeating four other candidates in the Republican primary election.
His final defeat, at the hands of State Representative Roy Barnes for governor in 1998, was by a margin of 52% to 44%.
Millner's campaigns were largely self-financed[1][2] and he remains a major financial backer of Republican candidates.
