2017
Fulton County, Georgia, held a special election for two county commission seats on November 7, 2017. These elections were necessary because of the resignation of Chairman John Eaves to run for mayor of Atlanta and the death of District 4 Commissioner Joan Garner. If no candidate received a majority (50 percent plus one) of the general election votes cast for a seat, a runoff election for the top two vote recipients took place on December 5, 2017. The filing deadline for the District 4 election was August 25, 2017, while the filing deadline for the chair election was September 20, 2017.[1][2][3] The following candidates ran in the general election for the District 4 seat on the Fulton County Commission.
