Unfortunately, Paul has decided to withdraw from the race in the Ninth Congressional District of Georgia. There are several reasons for this, the least of which are the extreme obstacles Paul faced coming into the race so late, notably in the financial area. Paul sends his sincere regrets and gratitude to everyone who contributed their time, money, and effort.
Paul announced his withdrawal during a short speech at a Candidate Forum hosted by the Pickens County Democratic Committee in Jasper on Tuesday, April 25th.
On the bright side, John Bradbury has qualified to run in the Ninth District for the Democratic Party and Paul has thrown his support behind John. You can visit John online at Bradbury for Congress.
Thanks again for your support.
