18 months ago, when Ellie and I made the decision to run for State Senate, we couldn’t imagine the journey we’d set ourselves upon. It’s been frenetic and stressful at times but it’s also been more fun and more rewarding than expected … and an unanticipated combination of things I’ve learned over the years as a designer, as a consultant, and as a parent.
The national and local outcomes were not what we'd hoped. But I'm incredibly proud of what our team accomplished in the 56. We brought together hundreds of volunteers and donors and collaborated with some wonderful campaigns and definitely moved the needle for better representation in East Cobb, Roswell, and Woodstock.
But if you're having trouble today—in the 56 or anywhere in the Republic—let me share one last story before I take a break from the campaign and social media for a few weeks to plot my next move:
When I was dying of cancer and bedridden on chemo, delirious and unable to work, Ellie got me an Amazon Echo so I could just ask for songs and news and stuff since I was frequently too weak to get up.
Ellie hooked up the echo and started an audiobook for me and left me to sleep. Restless and despairing, I recall asking, “Alexa, tell me everything is going to be ok."
She responded by playing "Alright" by Kendrick Lamar:
”Do you hear me, do you feel me? We gon' be alright”
JD JORDAN FOR GEORGIA STATE SENATE DISTRICT 56
For anyone in East Cobb, Roswell, or Woodstock alarmed by the state’s escalating attacks on our bodies, our families, our doctors’ offices, our classrooms and libraries, even our polling places, I’m running for state senate district 56 to fight for our freedoms and to deliver a better future for everyone in Georgia.
And unlike my opponent who’s spent 14 years rolling back our freedoms, failing to safeguard our kids, and gerrymandered his district to stay in office, I promise to bring everyone in the 56—regardless of ideology—the best possible constituent experience so you feel heard, valued, and supported. As we all deserve to be.
I’m running for the 56. Let’s make a better Georgia for all of us.
