Tonight, following Democrat Shawn Harris’ stunning overperformance in the most Republican Congressional District in Georgia, DPG Chair Charlie Bailey released the following statement:
“Tonight, in the deepest-red congressional district in Georgia – and despite more than $1.5 million in spending by Republicans to defend this Trump +37 seat – Democrat Shawn Harris notched a jaw-dropping more than 20-point overperformance in Marjorie Taylor Greene’s backyard.
“Shawn ran on a clear message that’s resonating with voters across the state and across party lines: Georgians don’t have to put up with failed Republican leadership that raises their costs, takes away their health insurance, and sells them out to billionaires and big corporations at every turn. Voters are ready for Democratic leadership that fights for them and their families, and that is exactly what the Democratic Party of Georgia will deliver up and down the ballot in November.”
