Residents crowded into the Dalton Convention Center for another town hall organized by PFAS Georgia.
This time they were joined by candidates for Marjorie Taylor Greene’s vacated congressional seat — Republican Clay Fuller and Democrat Shawn Harris.
“They are both fine gentleman,” Ben Finley, an attorney with PFAS Georgia, told the crowd packed into the building’s banquet hall Monday night. “They both have a good heart, and they both, I can tell you, will represent this district well in Congress.
“One of them will advance to Congress and will do great things,” Finley said. “The other will go on to do great things as well in some other form. These are the types of leaders we need.”
As guests chowed down on barbecue, sipped sweet tea and quenched their thirst from plastic water bottles, candidates for other Georgia offices circulated between tables, introducing themselves to potential voters and commiserating about issues plaguing the state.
