The Rick Jackson for Georgia campaign recently announced the launch of the “Keisha Lance Bottoms Luxury Car Service,” a branded limousine that will be deployed to Keisha Lance Bottoms campaign events across the state.
Taxpayers couldn't escape the bill for Keisha's luxury travel
So we aren't going to let Keisha escape her record of corruption

What is the aim of deploying this branded vehicle? This new “service” is an attempt by the Jackson campaign to creatively critique Bottoms' history of using taxpayer-funded limousine rides.
In her first five months as Mayor of Atlanta, Bottoms billed taxpayers $11,651 for more than 27 rides with Carey Executive Limousine, an average of $431 per trip. In less than half a year, she outspent her predecessor's entire annual luxury car service tab.
Just like it did when she was Mayor, the limousine comes as part of an overall luxury package. On a February 2018 trip to the Super Bowl in Minneapolis, taxpayers were charged $2,610 for a first-class plane ticket for Bottoms' husband, who was not a city employee, and $626 for a steakhouse dinner on the day of the game, charged to the Mayor's city credit card.
While the luxury package was only available to Keisha Lance Bottoms, the bill was paid by taxpayers.
What the Rick Jackson Campaign had to say:
- Garrison Douglas, Campaign Spokesman: “Just as taxpayers were unable to escape the bill of her luxury travel, Keisha Lance Bottoms will not be able to escape her record of corruption and taxpayer-funded life of luxury.”
Who is currently leading in the race for Georgia Governor? Polling reports and odds-making websites are not unanimous on who is currently leading. In a recent poll from Rasmussen, 48% of surveyed voters favored Rick Jackson, 45% favored Keisha Lance Bottoms, and 7% remained undecided.
While Jackson may be pulling ahead in recent polls, his odds of winning the governorship haven’t caught up. According to Kalshi, the exchange market platform, Bottoms has a 53% chance of winning the seat, while Jackson has a 47% chance.
