Three of five candidates running for Georgia attorney general offered their views during a political forum on Tuesday night, discussing everything from the ongoing water war with Alabama and Florida to federal health care legislation tocriminal exploitation of children.
At Southern Polytechnic State University in Marietta, before a crowd of 100, Sam Olens said, “The attorney general’s position is a position that links public service with the practice of law. If you’re the attorney general, you get to be involved.”
Olens, Cobb County Commission former chairman, will face state Sen. Preston Smith and former U.S. attorney Max Wood for the Republican nomination next month.
State Rep. Rob Teilhet will run against former Dougherty County D.A. Ken Hodges in the Democratic primary.
