Less than a month after launching an exploratory bid for governor of Georgia, Democratic Rep. Lucy McBath has suspended her campaign to focus on her husband’s health.
“My husband and I are so grateful for the outpouring support we have received as we undergo this medical process,’’ McBath said in a statement. “I will be spending time focusing on my husband’s recovery, and I cannot make the decision to run for Governor or not at this time.”
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution, which first reported McBath’s decision, said her husband, Curtis McBath, had suffered complications from cancer surgery.
