AUGUSTA, Ga. (WJBF) – Previous Atlanta Mayor and now candidate for the Governor of Georgia, Keisha Lance Bottoms, visited Augusta as part of her Stand Up for Georgia tour.
We spoke with Lance Bottoms before she spoke with community members at the Lucy Craft Laney Museum of Black History.
She says she has felt the hospitality from Augusta and that she has learned a lot hearing some people’s concerns and what they want changed.
She then spoke about what this election means to her.
“From Senator Ossoff being back on the ballot, to just what we believe our priority should be as a state. Are we looking to elect a leader who’s focused on Georgia or a leader who’s focused on pleasing Donald Trump, and it is my hope that as I am here I am presenting to people what I believe our future candidate should be in this state,” said Keisha Lance Bottoms, Candidate for Governor of Georgia.
She will continue her statewide tour.
