Former state Rep. Alisha Thomas Searcy is running for Georgia state school superintendent on the Democratic ticket.
But Searcy recently took to Facebook, venting that she feels “ostracized and excluded” by her own party, just weeks out from the Georgia midterm elections.
The Georgia Association of Educators even endorsed Democratic candidates in statewide races for the upcoming midterms, except for Searcy. Instead, the organization endorsed Republican Richard Woods.
Other Democrats are weighing in. Gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams’ campaign tells WABE that Abrams supports the entire Democratic ticket. Others claim that Searcy has a track record of supporting Republican legislation.
Searcy tells WABE she has no such track record.
