Rep. Jody Hice (R-Ga.), a third-term Republican Congressman who won each of his terms with around 63 percent of the vote, is running for Georgia’s Secretary of State. Why did he give up almost certain reelection and pursue a new office? Hice told The Epoch Times that he wants to protect the voice of the people at the ballot box.
“Our country is based upon the consent of the governed, and when the voice of the people is violated or compromised at the ballot box, that is a sacred area that must be protected at all cost,” Hice said.
