Atlanta Tea Party announces endorsements

ATLANTA - The Atlanta Tea Party has announced endorsements in the 9th District and 7th District congressional races.

The group has thrown its support behind Tom Graves in his quest to replace Nathan Deal as the 9th District representative and has also endorsed Clay Cox who is running for the 7th District seat, being vacated by John Linder.

Deal stepped down earlier this year to concentrate on running for governor and a short time later, Linder announced his retirement.
