A Georgia woman pardoned by President Donald Trump last month announced this week she’s running against Rep. John Lewis (D-Ga.) in this year’s election.

Angela Stanton-King was pardoned along with former New York Police Department Commissioner Bernard Kerik and others in mid-February. Stanton was convicted in 2004 of being part of a group that stole vehicles. She was ordered to stay confined at home for six months.
