GOP Keeps Tight Hold on State Legislature
(AJC) — Republicans did as expected and kept a firm grip on the General Assembly in Tuesday’s elections. Most incumbents running for re-election won another term. However, some votes were too close to call. As of late Tuesday, Democrat Elena Parent led Rep. Jill Chambers, R-Atlanta, chairwoman of the committee that oversees MARTA. Parent, a local attorney, was chief of staff to former state Sen. David Adelman, who resigned earlier this year to become U.S. ambassador to Singapore. Chambers, a fiscal watchdog of MARTA, recently filed for bankruptcy.
