My name is Mesha Mainor. I was born in Atlanta in 1975 to Shirley Mainor and Willie Denson.

As a lawmaker for the past three years, I realize more each day that the principles of Democrats are not always aligned with those of black people.

I am asking black Americans to ask themselves, “What has a Democrat done for you lately?”

Black children cannot read or perform simple math in marginalized communities.
In my district, some of the stats show as little as 2% to 3% academic proficiency.
The criminal-justice system led by black Democratic leadership is functioning at an all-time low.
-snip
Crime is rampant, and Atlantans are afraid to leave their homes out of fear for their lives.
Democrats supported defunding the police. I did not.
I voted with the Republican Party to keep local law-enforcement agencies intact to protect communities.
I voted to protect victims and families over lawless prosecutors that may use their office for personal gain versus advocating for the people they serve.
I also voted to support children that attend failing schools with parental or school-choice options.
The misconception that vouchers are for the wealthy is rhetorical nonsense magnified by opponents of school choice — often Democrats — who support the teachers unions over children.
I am content with my votes and my decision to switch parties, and I will run on the Republican ticket when I seek re-election.
Exodus 9:9-14 shows us that a slave mentality is normalized when you are suppressed and oppressed into thinking failure and hopeless is better than the unknown.
I pray I am able to show those who may be unintentionally shackled in spirit that macro-politics is nothing more than sensationalism meant to alarm and scare you from truths.

A leader.
Appropriate to quote Exodus after her exodus.
She will be vilified as she has never been before. Blacks aren’t supposed to leave the liberal plantation like that.
Well,done.
COURAGE !!!
That’s all fine and dandy, but she’s still a racist.
Democrat policies aren’t “anti-black”, they’re anti-people.
God bless you Rep Mainor, you are a credit to Georgia and yourself. Keep up the very good work.
Yes, very courageous of her to leave the party of slavery, Jim Crow and the kkk.
Those pills they advertise to boost your brain function must work.
A RINO!!!!!!!!!!!!
Not a leader..
He still wants to know “what can the gubmint to for us blacks”
That is DEMOCRAT talk.
The government should not do anything for one group over any other.
She
Are you presuming they’s gender?
Yes, but they’ve been especially and deliberately devastating to Blacks in ways Whites have yet to experience (not for lack of trying).
Ok.
Better than nothing.
I agree with you about the Georgia GOP.
Rino fakes.
She seems……sane.
Be careful. This woman was a democrat until about 5 minutes ago. Let that sink in.
I wouldn’t count her as some kind of conservative warrior all the sudden.
Keep her at arms length, she ain’t battle proven at all.
This is a democrat woman for starters. She is outspoken and taking care of her constituents as any good representative does
I disagree. She should be punished for supporting the democrat party for so long. The democrats have been like this since the early 1900s.
