FAYETTE COUNTY
DEMOCRATS
The work starts now for 11.3.2026
FAYETTE’S TRAJECTORY
Our South Atlanta enclave of growing Democrats has a chance to flip BLUE for the first time in decades, the end result of a 20 year long effort started by our founder Ernie Broadwell. Ernie brought Fayette Democrats together for the first time in 2003, with less than 30% of our County’s vote share. On November 3rd, 2026, we will flip fully to Democratic control.

Georgia Voted & Georgia WON! 💙
The November 3, 2026, General Election marked a significant shift in Fayette County's political landscape, with Democratic candidates leading in all 11 statewide races and voter turnout reaching an impressive 67.24%, with 62,730 ballots cast. Fayette County voters supported Jon Ossoff for U.S. Senate, giving him 35,404 votes, while Keisha Lance Bottoms received 32,221 votes (51.77%) in the governor's race. Democrats also secured countywide majorities in races for lieutenant governor, secretary of state, attorney general, and other statewide offices. In the 3rd Congressional District, Democrat Maura Keller came within just 131 votes of Republican Brian Jack in Fayette County, although Jack won reelection districtwide. Republicans retained several local seats, including County Commission District 3, Board of Education District 2, and contested state legislative districts. These results demonstrate growing Democratic strength in Fayette County, particularly in statewide elections, while highlighting opportunities for continued voter engagement and organizing in local races. With all 35 precincts reporting, the results remain unofficial pending certification.

Fayette Young Dems Receive Accolades
Congratulations to the Fayette Young Democrats for being named Chapter of the Year, and a special congratulations to Jonathan Bonner, who was named Young Dem of the Year.
These recognitions are more than awards — they are powerful reminders that our young leaders are already shaping the future of Fayette County and the Democratic movement across Georgia. Their commitment, energy, and service reflect the type of leadership we must continue to encourage and elevate.
As we prepare for the critical 2026 midterm elections, we must recognize, support, and invest in the ideas, voices, and organizing power of our youth. Their ability to connect with new voters, expand civic engagement, and bring fresh urgency to the work ahead will be essential to building momentum and winning in 2026.
