John Luchetti campaigns for House District 28

FORSYTH COUNTY, Ga. – Republican John Luchetti is the blue collar candidate in the Georgia House District 28 race. He is a contractor who has never run for an elected office. His campaign is almost 100 percent self funded and he has no campaign manager to help guide him through the political process.

But he believes very strongly in the issue of school choice. When the new House District 28 was created, he saw an opportunity to fight for that issue and he stepped in to fight for that issue.

John, age 42, is married with twin sons age 21, and a three-year-old daughter, who attends Horizon Christian Academy.

“School choice is my driving force,” he said. “I’ve been told that we don’t need that in Forsyth County because we have some of the best schools in the state. But as a business owner, I know what makes my industry better is competition. If the schools had competition, I would argue they would be even better.” John also believes that when a student chooses to attend a private school, the money the state provides for a student’s education should follow them.

Like most conservatives, he believes in smaller government and less governmental oversight.

“We were lucky here in Georgia to have fewer lockdown days,” he said. “But we could just as easily have been like California or New York and still be locked down which is why I believe in less government oversight. I also don’t believe in pushing vaccines on people, especially children.”

He is one of the candidates who will participate in next week’s District 28 Forsyth County Republican Party debate
