Lucretia Hughes Biography

Lucretia C. Hughes received her Associate Degree in Business Management and Administration from ITT Technical College and is currently working as a Financial Professional. A strong advocate for Religious Freedom, Stopping Refugee Resettlement in Georgia, and unnecessary Tax Hikes and State Fees, her professional interests focus on improving the quality of life for Barrow County Residents and the constituents of 47 the district of Georgia. In addition, she serves as President for The Lanier Tea Party Patriots, is the former Assistant Secretary for the Barrow County GOP, and is a member of the Barrow County Republican party. She was honored by Speak Up Georgia for her contributions to the upliftment and advancement of the Conservative Movement. She was also named to the Who’s Who Georgia Conservatives.

Lucretia C. Hughes was born in Commerce, GA on June 19, 1974. She is a proud mother of four and grandmother of 5. She graduated from Spartanburg High School in Spartanburg, SC in 1994. She returned to her Georgia roots in 1998. Since returning to Georgia, Lucretia’s life has been placed on a collision course with serving others. During the first attempts to pass Obamacare, Lucretia realized that our current Government officials did not have normal citizens’ interests at heart. She began to pay closer attention to State and Local officials and saw that the same things were occurring right here. At that point, she realized that if someone didn’t take a stand, we would be doomed to be knocked down. As of March 11, 2016, Lucretia decided that she would take that stand and make a difference.

He said in an interview that this effort will be a centerpiece of his campaign.

Press Release - 18 Aug 2017

Press Release

August 18, 2017

Members of the Fayette County Republican Party believe very strongly that trust and confidence in our voting process is paramount to a free society, and that public officials should aggressively support every effort to uncover voter fraud. To that end, the FCRP sought to replace its own Board of Elections member who had thwarted her own Board's investigation into voter fraud – fraud that the GA Office of State Administrative Hearings concluded did, in fact, occur. However, the County Commissioners failed to certify the FCRP’s properly-designated replacement.
After forcing the matter into the courts, the Commission went on to seek $30,000 of attorney fees from the very group that exposed the fraud. While I am deeply disappointed by an Appellate Court's decision not to hear our case, I am not totally surprised in light of the County Commission’s refusal to provide key information from the underlying public trial.
I find their decisions a blatant disregard of Fayette County government’s stated mission to “remain open and accessible to all citizens” and to “generate trust and confidence.”
Far beyond this individual case, however, are those decisions’ chilling effects on citizens and groups seeking to expose the abuse of public trust, position, or corruption. And that should be a grave concern to all residents of Fayette County, regardless of their political leanings.
