EMILY’s list, the group that supports Democratic female political candidates, endorsed Points of Light CEO Michelle Nunn Monday for the U.S. Senate race in Georgia.
“Michelle Nunn’s creative stewardship of the world’s largest volunteer organization shows us what a commitment to bipartisan collaboration and public service can do,” Stephanie Schriock, President of EMILY’s List, said in a press release. “As CEO of the Points of Light, Michelle has partnered with businesses and philanthropists to effectively address challenges in our communities, and make life better for women and families across the country. I have no doubt that this bold decision maker will achieve great things in Washington, and the EMILY’s List community – now more than two million members strong – is thrilled to support this historic campaign.”
If elected, Nunn would be the first woman to represent Georgia in the U.S. Senate.
