- Description:
- The 5th District council race in Atlanta between incumbent Morris Finley and challenger Hosea Williams has been marked by accusations of improper tactics and mudslinging, with Williams relying on theatrics to win and Finley focusing on his record, while Williams paints him as a tool of the downtown business power structure and a slumlord, and the two face a runoff election after a laborious recount that failed to produce a winner. 1 page.
