Wade Herring, a Savannah attorney at the HunterMaclean law firm, announced his campaign for Congress in Georgia’s First Congressional District. 

Herring, a Democrat, is seeking the seat currently held by Republican Buddy Carter. The election is in 2022.

“The January 6th Insurrection showed us that our country is more divided than ever -- we are being torn apart by lies and divisiveness. Not only that, but time and time again, it seems that our current representative is more focused on politics than putting our families, and our district, first. I’m running for Congress to solve these problems,” Herring said in a press release.

The candidate said he has raised $133,775 in the first month of his campaign..

“We’re thankful for the support that we’ve received from so many people. It’s clear that many people agree with our message. We need politicians that want to work with each other, not against each other. We need more Representatives who want to focus on family issues and put our District ahead of politics,” said Herring.
