To the citizens of Chattooga County, hello! I’m Bart Bryant, the Democratic candidate for Georgia’s 53rd State Senate seat. I was born and raised in Chattooga County and have lived there all my life. I live in Menlo, a town near and dear to my heart.
I’m announcing myself now because I ran unopposed in the recent primary. I congratulate my opponent, Senator Colton Moore, on his recent primary victory.
I will not make a lot of promises that I can’t fulfill. After all, as a single state senator, there’s little to nothing I can do by myself. I promise you that before and after being elected, I will always show proper respect and courtesy for everyone; for you, other citizens, and the other lawmakers I have to work with, regardless of which party they are in. If a lawmaker doesn’t do that, as we have seen, being one isolated lawmaker out of 56 is all he will ever be and will do little for his constituents.
I will listen to the people before casting any vote. Your voice is my compass, and I am committed to representing your needs and concerns in the Senate.
I will do everything possible to help police officers and other first responders. As a former peace officer, I know about the benefits they deserve and the split-second decisions they must make. They have our backs every day, and I intend to have theirs.
Likewise, I will do everything I can to support our Georgia school teachers. They are helping to bring our children into adulthood and deserve all the support and respect we can give them.
I am a strong supporter of labor and the common working person. I am also a strong supporter of the Second Amendment regarding legal gun owners. Respect. Courtesy. Service. Hard work. Public educators. First Responders. Second Amendment.
Those are my positions and beliefs in a nutshell.
Give me a chance, and I’ll show you what I’m about.
Bart Bryant
Democratic Candidate
53rd District, Georgia State Senate
