Givens endorses Powell
Brandon Givens has endorsed Jim Powell in the PSC runoff:
Usually the Libertarians end up siding with Republicans. Not so in the Public Service Commission Dec. 2 runoff between Republican Lauren “Bubba” McDonald and Democratic nominee Jim Powell.The Powell campaign put out a release for the endorsement:
“After speaking with Mr. Jim Powell I’ve discovered that he too has the vision for a new system that would allow for both a free market in energy and a growth in green technology,” Givens said in a news release. “Mr. Powell also shares my strong opposition to ex parte communications, the behind-closed-doors dealings between PSC members and the industries they are charged with regulating. He will stand up for transparency in government. I strongly encourage all voters, Libertarian and fiscally conservative to vote for Jim Powell.”To my knowledge, this is the first time a Libertarian has endorsed a Democrat in a runoff in Georgia.
Powell also picked up an endorsement from Angela Speir, the Republican incumbent in the seat he is running for.
