Fundraising frontrunner Mitchell expressed appreciation to his donors in a written statement: “I am humbled by all the people who have contributed to our campaign. Atlantans from all around the city have entrusted us with their money, their ideas, their faith and their dreams. They have done so because they believe in what we can do, and what we will do. We will lead, and we will leave nobody behind.”
Aman, who has lent his campaign money to match his donors dollar for dollar, in a written statement, cited nearly a century of inaction by “lifelong candidates who have collectively run dozens of times and spend years honing financial networks.” The other frontrunner Norwood, pointed to how there is no self-funding and no political action committee money in her donations.

The election is set for November 7. If no candidate wins more than 50 percent of the vote, a runoff will be held on December 5, 2017.
