​Shelia Edwards Leads in RUNOFF for District 4 Commissioner

Election Run Off Date Scheduled for August 11th

Thank you District 4 Voters for your support of my candidacy for Cobb County Commissioner for District 4.

The election results from the June 9th Primary have been certified by the Cobb Board of Elections. As of June 19th, I received 7705 votes (24.84% of the votes) in a seven-person race. With your support, I am leading in the vote count for District 4 Commissioner and am headed into a RUNOFF Election that will be held on Tuesday, August 11th, 2020.

For those who supported my campaign, I need your support once again. Please make plans now to vote in the RUNOFF on or before August 11th. If you supported other candidates in the primary, I welcome you joining "Team Shelia" for the RUNOFF.

Historically, RUNOFF Elections do not receive the same attention as the Primary, so I need everyone's help to get our supporters back out to vote. Please share this info and RUNOFF date with your friends, family, neighbors, and church members. If they live in District 4 (Mableton, Austell, Powder Springs and parts of Smyrna and Marietta), please ask them to vote for:
