Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms says 'it is time to pass the baton to someone else'
By Max Greenwood - 05/07/21 12:02 PM EDT

Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms said on Friday that she would not seek a second term in the mayor’s office, arguing that “it is time to pass the baton to someone else.”

“It is abundantly clear to me today that it is time to pass the baton on to someone else,” Bottoms said. Her remarks came hours after she made the surprise announcement on Thursday evening to note seek reelection this year.

Speaking to reporters at City Hall, Bottoms said that she had grappled with whether to run again since early on in her term as mayor. She said there was no single reason behind her decision, but noted that her heart was no longer in fight to continue her job.

As for her future, she said she has no immediate plans to seek another office or accept another job, waving off rumors that she would be taking a position at Chicago-based Walgreens.

Her racialization of Atlanta isn't going the way she'd hoped?
If, as anti-Covid-vaxxers claim, https://www.poynter.org/fact-checking/2021/robert-f-kennedy-jr-said-the-covid-19-vaccine-is-the-deadliest-vaccine-ever-made-thats-not-true/ , https://gospelnewsnetwork.org/2021/11/23/covid-shots-are-the-deadliest-vaccines-in-medical-history/ , The Vaccine is deadly, where in the US have Pfizer and Moderna hidden the millions of bodies of those who died of "vaccine injury"? Is reality a Big Pharma Shill?

Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.

I think she is looking to bigger things.
