“This election is crucial to Republicans in Fulton County," Moore said. "If we lose this seat, we will lose our delegation’s majority. If we lose the majority, we lose our opportunity for further reform. Losing is not an option."

Moore, who works with former lieutenant governor nominee and state
representative Matt Towery as vice president of Insider Advantage/Internet
News Agency, is a graduate of Georgia State University, has worked
tirelessly as an active Republican for nearly 20 years. 

She recently served as the Atlanta chairman for Newt Gingrich's presidential campaign.
