The Georgia Secretary of State's office plays a critical role in promoting a strong, fair economic environment for businesses and ensuring the integrity of the democratic process for voters. Most importantly, electing a Democrat will prioritize voter accessibility and a check on partisan election interference.
A change in leadership will move the Secretary of State's office away from the partisan friction seen in recent years and toward a focus on professional, equitable administration for all Georgians. Democratic candidates for Secretary of State pledge to restore trust in state government.
