ALBANY, Ga. (WALB) — Less than a week until the primary election, more candidates are getting face-to-face with South Georgia voters. 

Attorney General Chris Carr met with voters Wednesday, May 13, at Modern Gas in Leesburg. 

Carr’s gubernatorial campaign is centered around jobs, safety and affordability. Carr was given a tour of the modern gas facility and spoke to voters on his plans if elected.

“Jobs and safety are my two big issues. So everything has to do with jobs, whether it’s workforce, education, literacy, making sure we have the lowest tax environment of any statement nation, investing in infrastructure, talking about the affordability issues of housing and healthcare and education, but also keeping folks safe. That is the thing government is supposed to do.”

Carr visited various parts of South Georgia Wednesday, including Moultrie and Worth County. Early voting ends this Friday.
