Elections are underway in Georgia as voters decide who will compose the Public Service Commissioners (PSC). General elections are also underway, but at the Municipal level, where Georgians will vote on their local officials.
Governor Brian Kemp (R-GA) and Lieutenant Governor Burt Jones (R-GA) have a stake in the special elections concerning the PSC seats. Both have come out on X to show their support and formally endorse the incumbents: Commissioners Tim Echols and Fitz Johnson.
Kemp came out on the last day of the early voting season, urging voters to take this race seriously. He made it clear that if Democrats were to take these seats, then energy rates would increase.
It’s the last day to vote early in the Public Service Commission race. We cannot allow the Democrats to take these seats and raise our energy rates! Make sure to get out and vote for @timechols and @FriendsForFitz today or on Election Day.
