Georgia will have special statewide elections along with city races in 2025
Georgia will have off-cycle statewide elections this year, along with regularly scheduled municipal elections.
Those statewide races come after a long legal challenge to the Georgia Public Service Commission’s (PSC) election structure, which led to no PSC elections in 2022 and 2024. The PSC is the small but powerful board that makes critical decisions about energy and electricity in Georgia.
There are a total of eight candidates running for seats currently held by Republicans Tim Echols and Fitz Johnson.
Special party primaries will be June 17 with a July 15 runoff if necessary. The special general election will be Nov. 4. General election runoffs are not likely as Libertarians have lost ballot access in Georgia, along with the deadline passing for any other independent candidates.
