West Point Mayor Drew Ferguson announced on Monday that he will be a
candidate for the United States Congress representing Georgia’s 3rd Congressional District.
“Washington is broken and as a small businessman I know that what our communities need
from Congress is that they get out of the way and let us create jobs and economic
opportunity for our citizens,” Ferguson said. “We are a conservative place, and I want to
put conservative principles to work for the whole district like we have in West Point where
we have cut taxes and utility rates while creating an economic development boom.”
