Richardson's Seat May be Vacated

In a controversial move, Cobb Commissioner Jerica Richardson’s seat may soon be declared vacant. Chairwoman Lisa Cupid will present an agenda item to the county commission on Tuesday, following a ruling from Cobb Superior Court Judge Kellie Hill that deemed the commission's "home rule" map unconstitutional. This map had kept Richardson in her district.

The agenda item includes acknowledging Hill’s ruling, adopting the 2022 Georgia General Assembly map, and notifying Richardson that her seat is vacant. Although Judge Hill clarified that her order did not vacate Richardson’s seat, the commission might initiate the process themselves under a Georgia law requiring at least ten days' notice to the affected official.

The Democratic-led commission's map had faced legal challenges, most recently from Cobb resident Alicia Adams, leading to Judge Hill's decision for new elections in Districts 2 and 4. The county's request to reconsider the ruling was denied.
