Description
Summary:We return to Clarkston, Georgia to follow unlikely candidates in the city's 2013 local election, as three Mayoral and City Council candidates are former refugees who will be running for office -- and voting -- for the first time. These new American candidates were inspired to run for office after screening and participating in America By The Numbers with Maria Hinojosa: Mainstream, USA. Will they be able to bring new voters to the polls and make their voices heard? We document this remarkable moment in Clarkston's history.
