Kwanza Hall

Kwanza Hall (born May 1, 1971)[3] is an American politician and businessman who briefly served as a member of the United States House of Representatives for Georgia's 5th congressional district.

He finished first in the first round of voting on September 29, but did not receive a majority, and thus the race was decided in a runoff against Robert Michael Franklin on December 1, which Hall won by nearly nine points.

[4][5][8][9] Before holding elected office, Hall worked in the Fulton County government and served as vice president of technology for GoodWorks International, a human rights and public service consulting firm co-chaired by Andrew Young.

[12] Hall has also focused strongly on community improvement including land use, historical preservation, and sustainable development of in-town neighborhoods.

As no candidate earned 50 percent of votes cast, Hall and the second-place finisher, Robert Michael Franklin Jr., advanced to a December runoff election.

[22] On November 4, 2022, Hall endorsed Republican Governor Brian Kemp for re-election, joining 2 other Democrats in crossing party lines.
