MARIETTA â In the frantic final days before the Jan. 5 runoff election, Jon Ossoff rallied voters in front of Super Mercado La Villa on Roswell Street, where over a hundred supporters gathered at a âLatinx Meet & Greetâ event.
It was a chilly Wednesday morning for a political rally, but ahead of Ossoffâs speech, Mateo Villalobos could feel the energy in the air.
âItâs pretty exciting,â said Villalobos, who lives in Marietta, and cast his ballot on the first day of early voting. âThereâs a lot of political signs for Ossoff in my neighborhood. Thereâs definitely a lot more energy surrounding this election.â
