GEORGIA HOUSE

District 123 Democratic race

Gloria Frazier

76%

(28 of 29 precincts reporting)

A.K. Hasan.....24%

State Rep. Gloria Frazier will retain her District 123 seat after defeating A.K. Hasan by close to 2,000 votes.

Mrs. Frazier won the district, which includes south Richmond County and most of Burke County, because of what got her the seat the first time, she said.

"My compassion, integrity and my commitment to working hard for the people," she said. "I definitely know now that people believe in what I'm doing in Atlanta."

Her opponent said he was thankful for the support he received, despite his loss Tuesday night.

"I focused on the business that was at hand, but I came up short," Mr. Hasan said.

Mrs. Frazier said running this campaign against an opponent gave her more appreciation for her seat.

"This was very, very exciting to have the opportunity to run this race," she said.

"I will continue to work for education and the seniors in my district."
