2025 Election Results across Fayette County

On Tuesday, November 4 (and in early voting before that day) the people of Fayette County cast ballots for their local and statewide leaders. Here are the results of those elections. 

Peachtree City

Peachtree City Mayor Kim Learnard handily won re-election with 54.48% of the vote. The running mate of her opponent Steve Brown, James Clifton, also lost his race to Michael Polacek who got 54.35% of the vote for Peachtree City Council Post 4. 

Incumbent Clint Holland kept his Peachtree City Council seat by 216 votes, which was less than 1% of an advantage or 50.98% total.  If all the people who had cast a vote in the mayoral race had voted in the Post 3 race, the result might have been different, and his challenger Joe Campbell may have had a different result. 245 people voted for mayor who didn’t cast a ballot in the Post 3 race. 

What was the slam dunk in Peachtree City? The referendum extending a tax break for seniors got nearly 86% of the vote. 

Brooks

The Citizen has been reporting on a high drama mayoral race in Brooks centered around Veterans monuments and a lawsuit. The couple whose family is being sued by the town lost both of their races. Lieze Harris ran for Mayor against 16-year mayoral veteran Dan Langford. Mayor Langford got over 90% of the vote. 

Lieze’s husband David Harris ran against Sara Nelson for Brooks Post 5. Nelson won with over 81% of the vote. 

Fayetteville

Fayetteville saw two incumbents unseated by challengers in council races and a third incumbent keep her seat handily. 

First, Scott Stacy, the incumbent in Post 3, lost his race by only 72 votes to Emmett Spurlock. Spurlock’s win was 50.9% of the vote. 

Second, Fayetteville Post 4 Incumbent Rich Hoffman lost his race to Shannon Moultrie. She won with 59.4% of the vote. 

Incumbent Niyah Glover was the exception to the incumbents losing. She took 77% of the vote to keep her Post 5 seat, over challenger Iyakise Ubom.  

Woolsey

In the three-person race for the Woolsey Council Seat 3, Jackson won with 63.9% of the vote against challengers Burgett-Svanevik and Graiser, who got 11.5% and 24.6% of the vote, respectively. 

Georgia

In the statewide races for Public Service Commissioner posts 2 and 3, Democratic challengers Alicia Johnson and Peter Hubbard each won 55% of Fayette’s votes. Fayette, it seems, like the State of Georgia, is weary of progressive rate hikes approved by the incumbents. These challengers won statewide.
