Last night, WIN endorsed candidate Miriam Paris was elected to the Georgia Senate. After all the votes were counted, Miriam earned 56% of the vote. Her victory is an historic milestone for both Georgia and WIN List because Miriam is the first African American woman to represent Middle Georgia in the Senate. She is only the eighth Democratic female senator in Georgia.
The support of Georgia’s WIN list is what took me over the top in this race,” Miriam said. “I can’t thank them enough!“
Changing the face of power in Georgia is not easy and it’s not cheap. Because of your support, Georgia’s WIN List, was able to fully invest in Miriam’s campaign. Please consider contributing today in Miriam’s honor to help us recruit, train and elect more women to serve under the Gold Dome!
And please come cebrate this historic victory with WIN and with our newest Democratic senator, Miriam Paris, TOMORROW night at Zoo Atlanta!
Monumental change doesn’t happen over night, but adding the eighth Democratic senator to the Georgia Legislature is certainly a giant step in the right direction.
