Jackson Gains Sheriff Endorsements | Atlanta News

Rick Jackson, the Republican governor candidate, just landed backing from over 100 Georgia sheriffs—nearly two-thirds of the state’s law enforcement leaders, including a Democrat—bolstering his claim to understand police needs. A healthcare mogul who won his primary, Jackson vows to support officers if elected, while facing off against Democratic nominee Keisha Lance Bottoms, who’s rallying endorsements from Eric Holder and Biden and touting her public safety record—including a new training center. But Bottoms faces scrutiny over her handling of 2020 protests and the tragic death of Secoriea Turner. Meanwhile, Democrats are linking Jackson to Trump and questioning his business ethics amid rising healthcare costs. With starkly different visions for Georgia’s future, this race is heating up—and voters are watching closely. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
