Press Release

Georgia Freedom Caucus candidates made a strong showing on Election Day

PRESS RELEASE
FORSYTH COUNTY, Ga. — There is no greater honor than to support the voters in the great state of Georgia. As the Georgia Freedom Caucus (GFC) has done since our founding last year, we continue to be stalwarts of the conservative movement with a tireless dedication to limited government and the Constitution.

This election was a resounding mandate from the voters of Georgia that they are sick and tired of the same old campaign promises without action. They want elected representatives to do what they said they would do.

It comes as no surprise that tonight in the Peach State, every single incumbent Freedom Caucus Member won re-election.  Furthermore, every first-time endorsed candidate either won their race or made it to the runoff.

We would like to congratulate State Senator Burt Jones on his victory in the Lieutenant Governor race.

We would also like to congratulate GFC Chairman Senator Greg Dolezal and GFC Secretary Representative Sheri Gilligan on their victories.  Rep. Gilligan missed avoiding a runoff by just 27 votes. Joining them in reelection wins are Representatives Emory Dunahoo and Charlice Byrd.

In what is likely the biggest win of the night, Georgia Freedom Caucus founding member Representative David Clark was victorious in his reelection bid, beating the establishment darling and Republican Caucus Chairman Bonnie Rich for HD-100.

Other big wins include first time candidates Shawn Still (SD-48), Colton Moore (SD-53), Mitchell Horner (HD-03), and Jordan Ridley (HD-22).

We congratulate Jeff Jones (SD-03) and Noelle Kahaian (HD-117) on making it to the runoff in their races.
