Colton Chase Moore (born October 10, 1993) is an American politician and at 24-years old is the youngest elected official ever from Dade County, Georgia. On January 14, 2019 he will become a Georgia State House Representative for District 1.[1]
Moore was elected as the District 1 State Representative on May 22, 2018 after defeating John Deffenbaugh by a margin of 326 votes with a final tally of 2,184 to 1,858.[2]
He was the State President of Georgia Future Business Leaders of America under Executive Director Monty Rhodes from March, 2011 to March, 2012. During that time he led more than 25,000 students and 320 advisers.[3]
On September 23, 2018 Representative-Elect Colton Moore sent a publicized letter to Dan Cathy, CEO of Chick-fil-A, to consider several locations throughout Dade County for new Chick-fil-A restaurants. The letter also suggested Chick-fil-A should consider Exit 169 off I-24, which receives nearly 70,000 cars per day, as Chick-fil-A's first truck stop restaurant.[4][5]
