ATLANTA The grandson of the late Gov. Zell Miller is running for lieutenant governor on a platform that includes restoring full funding of the HOPE Scholarship program that his grandfather started.
Bryan Miller, of Watkinsville, announced Thursday that he will seek the Democratic nomination to succeed Republican Geoff Duncan as lieutenant governor. Duncan is not seeking reelection.
Miller recently stepped down as executive chairman of the Zell Miller Foundation, a nonprofit he launched in 2016 to build on the elder Miller’s legacy by focusing on education, leadership and public service.
Zell Miller, who died in 2018, was the driving force behind the Georgia Lottery, which voters approved in a 1992 referendum to raise money to start the HOPE program as well as statewide voluntary pre-kindergarten.

Henry Richmond, founder of 1000 Friends of Oregon, has died OregonLive.com 8 hrs ago The Oregonian, oregonlive.com
Henry Richmond, founder of the land-use advocacy group 1000 Friends of Oregon and a leading supporter of Oregon’s much-touted land-use planning system, died June 21. He was 78.
He died suddenly at his family’s farm near Newberg following a heart attack, OPB reported.
Richmond had a national reputation as an expert on land-use policy. As chair of the National Growth Management Leadership Project, a nonprofit coalition of states looking at growth issues, he once told an Ohio audience, “How development happens matters to communities.” He promoted land-use planning as a way for communities to take control over their growth, rather than the other way around.
