Political Wire: “Former Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms (D) filed paperwork Monday to begin raising money for a run for Georgia governor, with plans to formally launch her campaign within weeks,” the Atlanta Journal Constitution reports.
“Bottoms enjoys high name recognition in metro Atlanta, the heart of Georgia’s Democratic electorate, and she won office with overwhelming support from Black women — the party’s most loyal and influential voting bloc.”
“But she had a complicated track record as mayor.””
