Marcus Wiedower, first sworn into office in 2019, has resigned from the Georgia General Assembly to focus on his role at Hillpointe, a real estate development firm.
His immediate resignation from House District 121 triggers a special election to be held in December.
In 2017, special elections were held to fill the seats of Rep. Chuck Williams and Regina Quick, resulting in Democrats Jonathan Wallace and Deborah Gonzalez flipping both House seats representing Oconee County.
No comment from Wiedower on the future of his political career.
