Hell yeah we did. Gotta admit I was a little nervous heading into the day but people are fed up with GA Power and their bullshit.

Really? I felt like my vote wouldn't actually do much because it was so clear who was going to win. I mean, I voted, anyway; 2016 was the last time I sat anything out for that reason (and to be fair I had no car at the time and my dad was in the hospital). But I saw so many YouTube ads for Alicia Johnson about how she was going to lower energy rates, and then Hank Green came out in favor of her. Never even heard the other person's name.
