L-R, Rev. Dexter Wimbish (D) and incumbent District Attorney Marie Broder (R).
While most political ads have disappeared, there’s one local race still to be decided: district attorney for the Griffin Judicial Circuit, which includes Fayette, Spalding, Pike and Upson counties.
Veteran Assistant D.A. Marie Broder was appointed last year by Gov. Brian Kemp to replace Ben Coker, who became the circuit’s newest superior court judge. The special election on Feb. 9 is for the remaining two years of the four-year-term for D.A.
Broder, a Republican, has a Democrat opponent, Rev. Dexter Wimbish, a Griffin-based attorney and civil rights advocate.
