Fair Fight Endorses Slate of Seven Georgia Candidates Committed to Protecting the Freedom to Vote

ATLANTA  Fair Fight today announced their endorsement of six pro-voter, pro-democracy candidates for the November 2023 Municipal elections, including three incumbents. This endorsement announcement follows their endorsement of incumbent Savannah Mayor Van R. Johnson earlier this summer. Fair Fight is proud to endorse this diverse slate of pro-voter candidates for the November 7th municipal elections, said Fair Fight Political Director Nicole Robinson.  

Each of these candidates have been advocates for voters in their communities in and outside of elected office. We look forward to supporting them in their elections so they can continue to be advocates for expanding voter access in their communities.

The full slate of Fair Fight's endorsed candidates in Georgia includes:

Mayor Van R. Johnson (Mayor of Savannah)

Councilmember Corey B. Morgan (Camilla City Council District 1- Post 1)

Commissioner Demetrius Young (Albany City Commission Ward 6)

Councilmember Solange Destang (Snellville City Council Post 2)

Dele Lowman (Mayor of Stonecrest)

Councilwoman Ceretta Smith (Mayor of Grovetown)

Anthony Gutierrez (Kennesaw City Council Post 2)

These endorsements come at a time when anti-voter activists and elected officials are attacking the right to vote for Georgians at all levels of government, including the local level, said Robinson.  As far-right conspiracy theorists and election deniers across the country continue to advance a nationally-coordinated effort to restrict access to the ballot, attack election administration, and subvert the will of voters, it is more important than ever that Georgians are represented by champions of democracy across all levels of government.
