Elections
2015
A special election for the position of Georgia House of Representatives District 80 was called for July 14.[3] A runoff election took place on August 11. The filing deadline for candidates wishing to run in this election was June 3.[4]
The seat was vacant following Mike Jacobs' (R) appointment to a judgeship in DeKalb County.[5]
Taylor J. Bennett (D), Loren Collins (R), J. Max Davis (R) and Catherine S. Bernard (R) faced off in a special election.[1] Since no candidate received more than 50 percent of the vote, the top two vote-getters, Bennett and Davis, met in a runoff election, which Bennett won.[6][2]
