Holly McCormack, Democrat from Ringgold, will run against Marjorie Taylor Greene for Congress

Holly McCormack, a Democrat from Ringgold, Georgia, has announced she will run against U.S. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R- Rome, for Congress in 2022.

McCormack made the announcement official on Wednesday with a campaign video posted to Twitter. Originally from Northwest Georgia, she writes on her campaign website that she and her family settled in the Chattanooga area after her father's military career.

In the video, abandoned storefronts on McFarland Avenue in Rossville show an area where McCormack feels work can be done to revitalize the economy.

Elsewhere on her website, McCormack has highlighted strengthening small businesses, expanding broadband internet and addressing the decline of rural health care as her three main issues.

but Greene was elected in that district with 75% of the vote. I would think people would be outraged at her behavior but with Republicans, who knows? She may be even more popular there now and you know she's a fervent Trump loyalist.
