Metro Democratic Socialists of America LOCAL ELECTORAL GUIDE 2020 About Our Voter Guide This voter guide by Metro Atlanta DSA highlights key races and movement candidates running for office in the June 9th, 2020 Democratic party primary.

Who holds legislative power affects the possibilities for democratic social change. For many people open to radical politics, their first political expe- riences come through electoral politics. In a world of big-money politics, our chapter’s electoral work is dependent on the grassroots power of our members.

We can defeat the Right and take on Georgia’s “good ol’ boys network” of establishment politicians by acting on two democratically mandated resolutions:

Our local chapter’s 2020 Electoral Priority Resolution that calls for rank-and-file members to run for down-ballot seats and de- velop a general electoral plan in coalition with organizations like Georgia.

DSA’s National Electoral Priority Resolution, passed at the 2019 convention, which favors supporting openly democratic socialist candidates - and also anti-corporate progressives.

We require our whole membership to vote to endorse a candidate, and an endorsement includes a commitment for the chapter to devote resources to that campaign. Apart from Nabliah Islam and Michael Owens, the vot- ing recommendations for every other candidate listed in this voter guide are recommendations made by Metro Atlanta DSA’s Local Electoral work- ing group, not endorsements from the chapter as a whole. We hope this document offers guidance for left-minded voters who want to vote for the most left-wing candidate but don’t have time to do thorough research on the candidates.

Let’s Get Socialists Into Office!

The best way to really get a full understanding of the electoral landscape in Georgia is to plug in. If you are a socialist interested in running for an elected position or supporting class struggle candidates from behind the scenes , now is the time to get involved. This is a marathon and we have elections every year. Let’s start building our bench for 2021 and beyond.

Think Washington DC. Our federal government has three branches: Legislative, Executive and Judicial. Electing a presi- dent every four years to head the executive branch, and by electing our federal legislators, called the U.S. Congress, every two years.

Executive branch: We can still vote for Bernie in the primary, in order to maximize the impact of our agenda.

Legislative branch: The U.S. Congress consists of two cham- bers: The House of Representatives and the Senate.

The 435 representatives serve two-year terms. How many each state can elect is based on population as counted by the Census that is held every 10 years — which is one reason why it is crucial to fill out and turn in our Census forms. This year, Georgia will elect 14 members of the House.

Two senators are elected from each state, serving six-year terms. Each year one-third of the Senate is up for election. Typically a state’s two Senate seats are not up for election in the same year, but this year a retirement by our senior senator opened up a second seat, setting up a special election to fill the remainder of his term (currently occupied by the Governor’s appointee), in addition to the June 9 primary to select the chal- lenger to incumbent .

Why This Race Is Important Incumbent Earl “Buddy” Carter, in office since 2015, is a hardline conservative Republican and Trump apologist. Carter opposes same-sex marriage, abortion rights, marijuana legalization (even for medical uses), and supports oil drilling off Georgia’s coast.

District 1 contains the entirety of Georgia’s coastline. This necessi- tates, even more than most, a legislator with an understanding of and respect for environmental concerns. Ring supports legislation to transition away from fossil fuels in the form of a Green New Deal. Ring has also taken staunchly progressive positions on a va- riety of issues, including education (tuition-free college, universal preschool), veterans’ issues (protecting the VA from privatization), and workers’ rights ($15/hour minimum wage, ending right-to- work in Georgia).

Why This Race Is Important: The Georgia Public Service Com- mission (PSC) has the exclusive power to set utility rates. As we fight for a Green New Deal and publicly owned utilities, an ally on the PSC that will advocate for working people can be a tremen- dous help in the short term.

“You deserve a fearless voice on Georgia’s Public Service Com- mission. A voice that will fight for working families and senior citizens. A voice that will not be in the pocket of the industry. A voice that will stand up for our neighbors in coastal, rural, urban and mountainous Georgia, and protect the health of our families, our climate, and our democracy. I would be honored to be your voice on the Public Service Commission.”

1. “Nashville Native Noel Defeats Incumbant” Nashville Post. https://www.nashvillepost.com/home/ article/20444738/nashville-native-noel-defeats-incumbent-in-closely-watched-georgia-house-race The Georgia General Assembly, A.K.A. the State is perhaps the central point of political power in Georgia. Almost everything you hate about Georgia can be traced to this elected body, but we can get one step closer to fixing those problems by electing socialists and progressives to office.

According to Georgia’s State Constitution, the Georgia Gen- eral Assembly is composed of two houses, just like the U.S. Con- gress. Georgia’s House of Representatives was created in 1777 dur- ing the , making it older than Congress.

There are currently 180 State House representatives. Because House districts (HDs) are smaller (around 56,000 constituents per representatives), the House is sometimes referred to as the in the legislature. Smaller districts are supposed to ensure residents get more time with their representatives; so House reps prefer to refer to the State House as “the People’s House.” Legisla- tive districts are redrawn every 10 years, according to the Census. Those elected to the Georgia General Assembly this year will draw the legislative maps used for the next 10 years — including congressional districts as well as State House and Senate districts.

The Senate is composed of 56 members. Senate districts are larger, with nearly 173,000 constituents per representatives. In most legislative branches of government, the Senate is considered to be a less partisan and more deliberative body, for two main reasons: a. Senate districts are larger (and therefore harder to gerrymander) b. In most bodies, senators serve longer terms, with more time to pass legislation before they must begin campaigning for re-election. However, Georgia senators are elected for two-year terms, just like State House members. State House representatives must be at least 21 years old; senators must be at least 25 years old. Both must be citizens of the United States and a resident of Georgia for two years and their senatorial district for one year (preceding the election). Both State House representatives and state senators are elected on the first Tuesday after the first Monday in November in even-numbered years. Georgia State legislators make $17,342 per year, far below the national average of $48,280 per year. [insert graphic, salary spectrum?] Studies published in 2000 and 2004 found that the state that meet longer and give their leg- islators more resources (both in terms of staff and salary) are more efficient, passing a greater percentage of bills overall and enacting more bills per legislative day. They have more con- tact with constituents and are more attentive to their concerns. They are also more likely to write their own legislation, as opposed to presenting legislation written by outside lobbyists. Low-paying legislatures tend to be less diverse, with fewer working-class representatives and more lawmakers who are retired or have high-paying jobs that do not require them to be present at work every day.

It is wrong for corporations to grow at the expense of workers being made“ to live in poverty. Working people are the majority in this country and it’s long past time that economic policies reflect our priorities.” -R enitta Shannon State Senate District 38

Why This Race Is Important: The economic fallout from the CO- VID-19 epidemic has exacerbated the effects of income inequality. The state legislature can vote to reinstate rent control (repealed in 1984) and can reduce the number of years evictions can remain on people’s records. Ward, a leader in movements to close the city jail and end cash bail in Atlanta, plans to fight any state funding for new prisons in Georgia. A movement candidate unseating a 22- year incumbent would send a message to entrenched power. State House District 35

Why This Race Is Important: Setzler’s electoral lead in his dis- trict has narrowed over the years, dropping from 65% in 2010 to 52% in 2018. The 35th district is increasingly winnable, and Web- ster’s credentials (an MBA in Public Policy and a PhD in Public Health, Epidemiology) uniquely position her to oppose Setzler’s anti-woman and anti-science approach. In addition, Webster sup- ports a Green New Deal, raising the minimum wage to at least $15 an hour, and expanding Medicaid access in the state. I’m running to change the political establishment, because government should“ be by the people and for the people, and not represent a few select voices, but reresent all voices.” -E lizabeth Webster State House District 57

Hospital Page 1 of 1 Bridge Railroad Fire Station Cemetery GWINNETT COUNTY 135 Under the 287(g) program, the Department of Homeland Security deputizes local law enforcement to carry out the work of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents, essentially making local cops part of the federal government’s immigrant detention and deportation machinery. In Georgia, sheriffs’ departments have the power to invoke the 287(g) program, grant- ing themselves powers that further harm immigrant communities.

The 287(g) program allows local law enforcement to investigate the immi- gration status of people at the jail, have access to ICE databases, and issuing ICE detainers and hold individuals after the time they’re eligible for release, and place individuals in removal proceedings.

Gwinnett in particular is the #1 jurisdiction in the country in feeding ICE’s detention and deportation pipeline through the 287(g) program, which makes it much easier for people arrested on minor traffic charges to be transferred to ICE for deportation, and which a new sheriff could simply end.

For more information on the 287(g) program, from Project South. Why These Races Are Important The sherrifs elections offer an opportunity for MADSA to deepen its ties with the Latinx immigrant rights movement and allies in fighting 287(g). Right now Gwinnett and Cobb counties are major focuses of the movement, because of the importance of the 287(g) issue in this year’s elections. The vic- timization of undocumented immigrants through 287(g) and other programs undermines the rights of all of us as working people.

Here Are Your First Steps

STEP 1: Do Your RESEARCH. Many people want to run for office because they want to make a dif- ference in their community. If this is you, ask yourself these two ques- tions: 1) What specifically do you want to change or improve? 2) Which elected offices impact the issues you care about? If you want to improve the schools in your community or change the laws regarding child support, running for city council is probably not a good fit for you. Schools are governed by your local school board. Many of the laws regarding children and families are made in the state legislature.

Once you have figured out where in government you want to have an impact, you should study how that office works. Find out when and where your local city council, school board, county or public service commission, etc. meets and begin attending their meetings regularly. If you cannot make the meetings, you can usually find them online. Many local governments post videos of their meetings to YouTube.

By attending regular meetings of the governing body you want to join, not only will you learn exactly how that governing body makes deci- sions and the issues with which they are currently grappling, you will also get to see how people who are currently elected to that body gov- ern themselves. Remember, you cannot get into elected office without running against or replacing someone who is already there!

Unsure of Who Your Local Elected Officials Are? Then this is where your research begins! Several national organiza- tions, such as and Common Cause, have search tools that help you find your local elected officials and legislative districts. Orga- nizations like the New Georgia Project are developing mobile phone apps that give detailed information on your local electeds — including who their top campaign donors are! Common Cause: Find Your Local Elected Officials Find Your Government Districts in Fulton County

After attending a few meetings, you may find that you have much to learn before you are ready to run for office. One of the best ways to learn how an elected office works is to volunteer for an elected official whose ideas or governing style you admire.

Most governing bodies also have working groups or committees focused on a particular issue (e.g., city zoning board of appeals, parks advisory board, or the school board’s textbook review committee). Volunteer for one of these groups to develop your expertise on issues that matter to you.

You may learn that assisting elected officials satisfies your calling to improve your community. If you decide to run for office after doing these things, you will be a more knowledgeable (and respected) can- didate.

Step 2: Work on Someone Else’s Campaign These days, everyone with 2,000 friends believes they are popular enough to run for office. But campaigning for office is more than a popularity contest. (Many candidates have learned the hard way that 1,900 of their 2,000 friends cannot vote for them because they do not live in the same district; and of the remaining 100, half are not even registered to vote!)

There is a science to running a winning campaign. The best way to study this subject is to work on a campaign. Whether your candidate wins or loses, you will gain invaluable, behind-the-scenes experience and be introduced to a universe of field directors and other consul- tants who work on campaigns for a living. STEP 3: Discuss Running for Office With Your Family... and Your Employer Running for elected office can be costly and time-consuming. Even in small towns, running a winning city council or school board campaign can cost $10,000. Regardless of the size of your race, you will certainly spend the last 2-4 weeks of your campaign working around the clock.

Your personal life and the personal lives of your loved ones will come under strict scrutiny, including on all of your social media. This can be very hard for children or spouses who may not share your enthusiasm to be a public figure.

If you already have a full-time job, you should plan on missing several days of work during your campaign. If you have a family, you should plan on missing many important events (birthdays, weddings, school plays) during your campaign.

Winning your race only ensures your sacrifices will continue. Though classified as a “part-time” job, being a local elected can be all-consum- ing. In addition to the regular meetings of your elected body, you will be called on to meet with leaders of other elected bodies and with the business community. You may be required to attend out-of-town train- ings for elected officials; be invited to attend homeowners’ association meetings, school, church and other community events; and be expected to respond to emergencies such as the scene of a shocking local crime or a town hall about low student test scores.

In order to accommodate your new public schedule, you may have to reduce the hours you work at your current job — or resign altogether!

Most local elected offices pay very little. Georgia’s capitol city, Atlan- ta, is currently the only city in the state that pays its city council a salary of more than $25,000 per year. (Atlanta’s new twin city — City of South Fulton, is considering a salary increase for its city council.) Georgia’s state representatives are only paid $17,000 per year.

The low salary of Georgia’s elected officials is one reason that so many of them are older (retired from other jobs) or are already wealthy when they enter office. Increasing the salaries of elected officials could en- courage more regular people to run for office.

Until things change, a person considering running for elected office must make a plan for handling such a large time commitment on such a small salary. If you are thinking of running for office, this is some- thing you should talk through with your family.

STEP 4: Declaration of Intent (DOI) If you decide to take the leap to run for office, filing a Declaration of Intent (DOI) is how you make your decision official. You can always change your mind and drop out of the race after you have filed a DOI, but this is a required step to start.

In Georgia, you must file a DOIbefore you begin collecting any cam- paign donations!

A DOI form can be obtained from, and filed with, the clerk’s office of the municipality in which you are running for elected office. Click the links below to find the clerk’s office for the City of South Fulton and the Fulton County Board of Elections.

There are deadlines to declare your intent to run. Your local clerk can tell you when these are.

City of South Fulton Clerk’s Office Phone Number: (470) 809-7712

Fulton County Board of Elections Phone Number: (404) 612-7020 STEP 5: Qualifying Qualifying period: Though you may begin campaigning informally before this period, this is the time in which elections officials will formally confirm that you meet all the qualifications to run for the elected office you are seeking.

The requirements to run for state and county offices are set by Geor- gia’s Secretary of State (S.O.S.).

The requirements to run for city council or school board are set by each individual municipality. Contact your city clerk, or the elected body’s secretary, to learn all the qualifications necessary to run. The basic requirements for most city and state offices in Georgia are that you are a citizen of the U.S. and have lived for at least 12 months in the district where you are running for office.

Georgia Secretary of State (S.O.S.) Qualifying Rules

Qualifying Fee: This is the fee you must pay to certify your eligibil- ity. In other words it’s an application fee. For most offices in Georgia, this fee is set at 3 percent of the salary of the office which you are seek- ing.

The Qualifying Fee for the Fulton County Commission is currently $1,050. The Qualifying Fee for South Fulton’s City Council is currently $390

Pauper’s Affidavit (Financial aid for Qualifying Fees) A Pauper’s Affidavit can be filed by low-income persons to waive their Qualifying Fee. This form usually requires several signatures from residents of your district. Officials will review the affidavit and make a decision about whether or not to waive your Qualifying Fee. Contact your County’s Board of Elections to learn more about this process. STEP 6: Personal and Campaign Finance Disclosure Reports

As previously stated, running for local elected office can be very ex- pensive, especially in densely-populated counties in urban areas, or in a city as large as the City of South Fulton. In 2017, candidates for South Fulton’s City Council spent an average of $20,000 each to run for office.

In order to ensure that candidates running for office are not funding their campaigns with foreign or illegal money, and to ensure that the money raised by candidates is spent only for campaigning or govern- ing (and not their personal expenses), those running for office must file Personal and Campaign Finance Disclosure Reports (PFDs and CCDRs). These reports must be filed multiple times throughout the campaign and after the campaign is over — even if you do not win elected office.

Candidates cannot receive more than a set amount of money from any one person or company — even if contributions are split over multiple donations. The Maximum Individual Contribution Limit varies depend- ing on what office you are running for. For many of Georgia’s local elected offices, the Maximum Individual Contribution Limit is $2800 for the initial election; and another $1500 if you are in a runoff elec- tion.

Campaign finance rules for all city, county and state offices are set by the Georgia Government Transparency and Campaign Finance Com- mission (a.k.a. Ethics Commission). Contact them to obtain campaign finance forms and to receive in-depth training on these issues and more. Democratic Socialists of America
