The Georgia Senate Ethics Committee announced Friday that it has dismissed a sexual harassment complaint against state Sen. David Shafer.
“Based on the findings of fact reported by the independent counsel, the committee found that there is a lack of credible evidence to support the allegations in the complaint,” said a letter from the committee’s chairman, state Sen. Dean Burke, R-Bainbridge.
Shafer, a Duluth Republican, is running for lieutenant governor.
