“Our power grid is very vulnerable to foreign attacks, and if that occurs it could have a huge economic impact on the state of Georgia,” said White.

White has not raised any contributions to his campaign, according to information on the campaign finance website.

Other candidates in the primary race include Lindy Miller and John Noel. If none of the three candidates in the race gets 50 percent of the vote, a runoff will be called. The winner between the three will face incumbent Chuck Eaton in the November general election.
