Sharing an easy way to find your State of Georgia Legislator. On the Georgia General Assembly website, users can watch Live Chamber video streams of officials conducting legislative process. You can also locate your Georgia Legislator at https://lnkd.in/gVwXpVj. This is one way to stay informed about issues you care about. All Georgia residents have one State Senator and one State Representative elected by district for a two-year term. Click on the above link and type your accurate address in the search bar to locate your State Senator and State House Representative. The official determination and assignment of voters to a district are managed by each county.
