I live in Athens and I this guy is running as a write in vs. Paul Broun. Just an FYI

http://jonlester.tv/congress/jonlestercongress.pdf

Not a whole lot of info other than this blurb on his FB

"Oglethorpe County resident Jon Lester is a longtime Athens, Georgia area multimedia artist and record label proprietor, also with extensive experience as a thrift store retailer and land surveyor, among other reinventions and pursuits, and familiar to some as a persistent thorn in the side of the Augusta Chronicle editorial staff. Having never married or bought a house as of age 42, his debts also never exceed a low four figures. This is his first attempt at directly engaging the electoral process.

This candidacy is committed to the causes of subsidized contraception for low-income Americans, preserving and expanding Medicare and Social Security, containment of American militarism, ending foreign aid to any and all theocratic and ethnocentric regimes, sustainable agriculture, a sensible energy policy, a level playing field for both Wall Street and Main Street, and SCIENCE!"

Might be better than my initial thought to write in Charles Darwin.
