March 16, 2023
Political candidate screening is one of the most important benefits you receive as an ARA member, and member of the REALTOR® family. ARA believes in the democratic process and actively supports political candidates, regardless of party affiliation, based on who best represents the REALTOR® members’ positions on issues important to the real estate industry.
Cities within Fulton County have finalized plans for the 2023 municipal elections. This year, the general election is scheduled for Tuesday, November 7, 2023. Runoff elections, if necessary, will be held on Tuesday, December 5, 2023.
The Association’s Candidate Screening Committee interviews candidates for public office, then makes recommendations to the Atlanta REALTORS® Political Action Committee's (ARPAC Action) Board of Trustees for support and funding.
Once the qualifying period for these races closes, which is currently scheduled for August 23, 2023, candidate screening will begin.
