2017
A special election for the position of Georgia House of Representatives District 60 was called for November 7, 2017. Because no candidate received more than 50 percent of the vote, a special runoff election between the top-two candidates was held on December 5, 2017. It featured De'Andre S. Pickett and Kim Schofield. Schofield won the runoff election with 53 percent of the vote.[1]
The candidate filing deadline was September 27, 2017. The candidates who successfully qualified to run were Democrats De'Andre S. Pickett, Kim Schofield, and Sparkle Adams.
The seat became vacant following Keisha Sean Waites' (D) resignation in September 2017 to focus on her run for the Fulton County Board of Commissioners.
