The congressional reapportionment plan released Friday by Georgia legislative leaders has Republican 6th District Rep. Rich McCormick of Suwanee being drawn farther north into the north Georgia mountains from his base in suburban Atlanta.
McCormick’s district, which is now the 6th and includes all of Forsyth and Dawson County, portions of eastern Cobb, northern Fulton, a bit of western Gwinnett, and eastern Cherokee, would keep those counties, become the 7th and add Lumpkin County and a narrow strip of western Hall County.
The 9th District, represented by Andrew Clyde (R-Jackson County), would, in addition to Lumpkin and the part of Hall mentioned above, lose Hart and Franklin counties. (Click here to see a map of the redistricting proposal: congress-2023-packet.pdf (ga.gov) )
