GGC student defeats incumbent in county commission race

Ben Culberson is set to earn his bachelor's degree from Georgia Gwinnett College in about six months, but he'll take a seat on the Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners before he walks across the graduation stage. Culberson, who is 22 and in his final year at Georgia Gwinnett College, defeated Commissioner Matthew Holtkamp in the Commission District 4 race on Tuesday. His victory flips the lone GOP-held seat on the county commission back to Democrat hands four years after Holtkamp flipped it to the Republican column. "I've spent every day talking with residents, small business owners, families and community leaders across North Gwinnett. I heard concerns that ranged from a single street in a single neighborhood to the challenges facing families across the country," Culberson said in a statement. "Through it all, people shared the same hope: a county government that works for everyone. "(Tuesday), voters chose new leadership. Together, we flipped a seat on the Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners, and I'm humbled to be elected the youngest county commissioner in Georgia's history." Culberson's victory means that, in January, the Gwinnett County commission will consist entirely of Democrats for the first time since 2022. On Tuesday, Culberson received 55.3%
