Gary Richardson is an American politician who is the Georgia state representative-elect for the 125th district. He previously served as a Columbia County commissioner.
Georgia House of Representatives
Richardson ran in a special election for the Georgia House of Representatives's 125th district in 2024 to fill the vacancy left by Barry Fleming following his appointment to the superior court by Governor Brian Kemp. The first special election was held on February 13 in which Richardson won a plurality of the vote.[1] Since no candidate won a majority vote, he faced conservative activist CJ Pearson in a second election on March 12. Richardson defeated Pearson to finish Fleming's term.[2] He will face Pearson again in the May Republican primary, seeking a full term.[3]
