and you should too! He is running in Tom Price's district in a special election to be held in April. 45 only won this traditionally red district by 1.5 points. Let's turn this district in Georgia BLUE on our way to take back the Congress. Do it people!

(3,148 posts)He's a strong candidate with John Lewis' backing but it's a crowded field. Also, the only thing the Repub's got on him is he's a Star Wars fan. So he's got the nerd vote locked up. once the below story hits twitter he's going to get a lot more attention and support.
Political Ad Attacks Congressional Candidate For Cosplaying as Han Solo
The Congressional Leadership Fund, a super PAC dedicated to keeping Republican control in the House of Representatives, released an attack ad against Jon Ossoff, a 30-year-old small business owner and former congressional aide. Ossoff is one of 18 candidates running to replace Tom Price in Georgias 6th district. Hes considered by some to be a strong grassroots candidate in the special election, with Daily Beast reporting his campaign has raised over $1.85-million so far, but hes still not a sure thing in the traditionally conservative district. Still, that hasnt stopped CLF from deciding he should be their first target. . . . .
