Rocks The Elections In Cobb County
The voters in Cobb County elected all women to its Board of Commissioners, with a Democratic majority consisting of three women of color, including the first African American woman to win the chair.
A native New Yorker, Cupid defeated the incumbent Republican Chair Mike Boyce, and will be joined by her Democratic colleagues Jerica Richardson and Monique Sheffield, both African Americans, in addition to Republicans Keli Gambrill and JoAnn Birrell.

Perseverance is not a long race; it is many short races one after the other….
After two electoral defeats, most of us would have given up, but giving up was not an option for Charlotta Harrell. Harrell is the Chairwoman-elect, of the Henry County Board of Commissioners. She will be the first Democrat to serve in the position, defeating incumbent Republican June Wood with nearly 59 percent of the vote.
