Senator-Elect Colton Moore released a statement about his victory last week in the Republican Primary. 

Moore commented, “Strong Republicans had a great night in Northwest Georgia. I am humbled to represent Liberty in Georgia’s 53rd Senate District. A thank you to our Lord and Savior, every single voter, our teachers, our Law Enforcement, and all those who worked on this campaign. Congratulations to Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene, Representative-Elect Mitchell Horner, Representative Steve Tarvin, and Representative Mike Cameron for winning their races. I am looking forward to representing Northwest Georgia with each of you as we restore freedom to our corner of the state.”

Moore edged out former Catoosa County Commissioner Seven Henry, who had the backing of current Senator Jeff Mullis.

Moore, a former state representative from Dade County, will be one of the youngest serving members in the Georgia General Assembly when he takes his seat next year.  Moore is twenty-four-years old.
