Ranger, Ga. - The Georgia Delegation of House Republicans has endorsed Karen Handel, who is running in a special election to represent Georgia’s 6th Congressional District. The delegation has issued the following statement:

“Karen Handel has a track record of serving Georgia’s community and stewarding its resources. Handel has led effectively and thoughtfully as Chairman of the Fulton County Board of Commissioners and Secretary of State.

“Unlike the liberal candidate, Handel has made the 6th District her home for decades and will bring Georgia values to Washington—not the other way around. She balances budgets, she fights for life and she defends freedom. We’re proud to support our fellow conservative, Karen Handel, for Congress.”
