Fundraising hits high gear for Atlanta elections, as early voting kicks off
The latest campaign finance disclosures for Atlanta elections are out.The mayor’s race, plus several city council and school board races, have attracted big bucks, as candidates make their final push before Election Day on Nov. 4.

Some of the most hotly contested races, judging by the fundraising, are for the open seats for Atlanta City Council president, city council Districts 2, 7, and 11, and the Atlanta Board of Education At-Large Seat 8.
