The Republican contender for POTUS is making our community one of a handfull of stops on the trail.
GOP presidential candidate Rick Santorum is making Brookhaven the place for his Atlanta rally at Atlantic Aviation at DeKalb-Peachtree Airport on Thursday, March 1. The 11 a.m. event is free and it is open to the public. According to an 11 Alive report, Santorum is in second place with 85 delegates, with Mitt Romney at 165 delegates. Georgia native Newt Gingrich is a distant third with 32 delegates and Ron Paul is in fourth place with 19 delegates. To win the Republican nomination, a candidate would need 1,144 delegates.
