Trial Balloon · Ep. 189: Navigating the Nonsense

Carter May Run Again in Georgia

November 19, 2014 · 9:14 am ET · 15 Comments

Jason Carter (D) told the Atlanta Journal Constitution he could run again for Georgia governor.

Said Carter: “I’m not ruling it out. And I’ll certainly commit to having a role in this debate that we’ve started, and the future of politics in this state. And whether that puts me on the ballot again is a question that has to be answered later. I’m not going anywhere.”
