AUGUSTA On Tuesday, Sen. Hardie Davis officially announced his plans to run for Mayor of Augusta in the 2014 election. Sen. Davis began his service as an elected official in 2007 when he was elected to the Georgia House of Representatives. In 2010, Sen. Davis was elected to assume a vacated Georgia State Senate seat in a special election, where he currently serves. “I’ve spent many hours prayerfully considering my entrance into the Augusta mayoral race with my family, and I am excited to announce the start of my campaign today. It has been an honor to represent Richmond County as a state lawmaker, but as a longtime resident of Augusta, my heart is calling me to serve at home. I look forward to visiting and working with Augusta citizens during my campaign to create a brighter future for Augusta,” Davis said.
