Mark your calendar, Pamela — the Georgia State Primary/ Nonpartisan Election is coming up on Tuesday, May 21. Fair Fight is proud to endorse a diverse slate of Georgia Democracy Champions in this primary election. As we continue to witness escalating threats to our democracy, from attempts to purge voters from the rolls through mass voter challenges to new attempts to legislate mass voter disenfranchisement and undermine elections infrastructure, we need leaders who are willing to stand up to election deniers and voter suppressors. Here's our full list of endorsements for May 21: District Attorney Jared T. Williams, Augusta Judicial Circuit District Attorney Shalena Cook Jones, Eastern Judicial Circuit Representative David Wilkerson, Georgia State House District 38 Representative Teri Anulewicz, Georgia State House District 42 Representative Debra Bazemore, Georgia State House District 69 Representative Mary Margaret Oliver, Georgia State House District 84 Representative Marvin Lim, Georgia State House District 98 Representative Karlton L. Howard, Georgia State House District 129 Representative Debbie G. Buckner, Georgia State House District 137 Representative Tremaine "Teddy" Reese, Georgia State House District 140 Representative Al Williams, Georgia State House District 168 State Senator Michael "Doc" Rhett, Georgia State Senate District 33 State Senator Nan Orrock, Georgia State Senate District 36 State Senator Sally Harrell, Georgia State Senate District 40 State Senator Elena C. Parent, Georgia State Senate District 44 State Senator Kim Jackson, Georgia State Senate District 41 Chairwoman Nicole Love Hendrickson, Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners Chairwoman Tarenia Carthan, Douglas County Board of Commissioners Commissioner Jordan Johnson, Augusta Commission District 1 Commissioner Francine R. Scott, Augusta Commission District 9 These Democracy Champions are on the frontlines of protecting the freedom to vote and pushing back against MAGA extremists from the General Assembly to counties and cities all across the state. They'll work hard to ensure Georgians can safely and freely cast their ballots so that every voice is heard and our elections reflect the will of the people. And their work couldn't be more urgent. Georgia is a battleground state, which means MAGA extremists keep scheming to push access to the ballot as far out of reach as possible, particularly for Black and Brown people. With your support, we'll elect leaders who hold the line for our democracy. As a national leader in the fight for the freedom to vote, Fair Fight is committed to supporting and electing pro-voter Democracy Champions up and down the ballot — and we rely on grassroots support to make it all possible. Will you make a donation today to help support and elect even more pro-voter candidates across the state? In solidarity, Nicole Robinson Political Director, Fair Fight |
