1. I early voted for John for SoS & for Lindy Miller for PSC
Tue Dec 4, 2018, 08:39 AM
Dec 2018

I knew John Barrow when he was a county commissioner. He will make a fine SoS.

Ironically, both Barrow and Kemp are from Athens, GA.

Some info on our Democratic Public Service Commissioner candidate: (The PSC regulates utilities like Georgia Power and it’s way over budget nuclear plants and sky high electricity rates.)

Lindy was born and raised in Sandy Springs and attended the Atlanta Jewish Academy (then, the Greenfield Hebrew Academy) for all eight years of elementary school. She was active at Congregation B’nai Torah, including serving as the youngest member of the choir, and she was a leader in BBYO. Lindy has bachelor’s degrees in economics and in philosophy from the University of Pennsylvania, where she received the Jewish Renaissance Fellowship (recognizing commitment to Jewish life).

Lindy was a visiting student at the University of Oxford and holds a master’s in public administration from Harvard Kennedy School. She spent 13 years at Deloitte, the professional services firm, leading public policy globally in her last three years. She has lived abroad several times during her career, and co-founded Cherry Street Energy, a renewable energy company, while continuing to work full time. If elected, Lindy will leave her company, sell her shares, and focus entirely on her work at the Commission
