Joan and I knocked on our 2000th door yesterday. I’m so lucky to be married to someone who cares as deeply about City of Lawrenceville as I do. Early voting starts in three weeks! Electrandytravis.com

And that's a wrap for Labor Day. Joan and I knocked on our 1200th door in this campaign for City of Lawrenceville Council Post 3, with hundreds more still on our list. Also passed out dozens of fans to sweltering holiday park goers. Early voting starts next month!

Humbled by how many residents & business owners in Lawrenceville have come forward to support my campaign for city council. Qualified this week. (Or signed to play for UGA? Should have brought a hat.)
I’ve spent a career fighting for the little guy. Want to do that for everyone here.

Knocked on 120 doors across City of Lawrenceville today. I heard so many great ideas on how to make our city even better. And we can’t keep up with the requests for yard signs. Electrandytravis.com

Lawrenceville Mayor David Still explains why he took the “bold step” of endorsing my campaign for city council. Few if any mayors apparently endorse someone over a sitting council member.

Enjoyed speaking to the Lawrenceville Rotary Club today about the importance of journalism in keeping our country free. They also got to see some clips of my investigative work at FOX 5 and examples of why we desperately need fact checkers in the world of social media, today more than ever.

All finished with the @atlantatrackclub.bsky.social All-Star Weekend 4.4 mile race to honor the greatest home run hitter of all time. Did it in 36:01 which isn’t half bad for a non-all star runner.

Lawrenceville City Council is nonpartisan. However, in my race for District 3 this year I plan to speak to a variety of political groups. Today it was the @gwinnettdems.bsky.social monthly meeting. Hope they came away with a better idea of the man and not just the investigative reporter.

We've had a first report of a Community Note being spotted in the wild on Instagram. Ironically enough it linked to a Lead Stories fact check:
