Fulton County Commissioner Dana Barrett has announced her bid to run for Georgia Secretary of State.
Barrett was elected to the commission in 2022 after defeating longtime Republican incumbent Lee Morris. She currently represents District 3, which includes Buckhead, Sandy Springs, and Midtown.
Before running to serve as Georgia’s top election official, Commissioner Barrett says she successfully blocked a MAGA takeover of Georgia elections, fought to bring down healthcare costs in her district, and worked tirelessly to fix the overcrowding crisis at Fulton County Jail.
She joins a crowded field of candidates that includes Democrats Penny Brown Reynolds and Adrian Consonery Jr., along with Republicans Tim Fleming, Gabriel Sterling, Vernon Jones, and Kelvin King.
