Did you know fewer than 30 of Georgia's 7,000 elected or appointed officials are Latino? If Latinos had equal representation, they would be 600. This gap is even starker in places like Dalton, GA, where 73% of public school students are Latino, yet there is zero Latino representation in local government bodies. Over 100 counties in Georgia don't have a Latino in local office.
