Marvin Arrington, Jr. For Fulton County Chair
I am a certified county commissioner who has spent more than a decade learning every inch of this county — its strengths, its challenges, and the potential that still goes untapped. That foundation is not a starting point. It is a proven track record.
Having hosted more than 100 town halls, I know this: Fulton County residents are paying attention. They are informed, engaged, and ready for leadership that is fresh but seasoned — leadership that values their voices, understands county needs, and treats taxpayer dollars with care and respect.
For the past 12 years, I have shown up for this community — from Atlanta to Palmetto, from East Point to Chattahoochee Hills. It is time to take that experience countywide and lead Fulton into its next chapter.
At the same time, my service has always been countywide. I have consistently voted for and supported initiatives that benefit all 15 cities of Fulton County — including investments in libraries, the animal shelter, the water reclamation facility, MARTA, Grady Health System, Local Option Sales Tax (LOST) agreements, and TSPLOST transportation initiatives, along with other critical infrastructure and public services that keep Fulton County moving forward.
I've seen what's possible when we put people over politics, transparency over back-room deals, and collaboration over conflict. But I've also seen how our county suffers when leadership is divided — when North Fulton and South Fulton are treated as separate instead of interconnected, when cities are excluded from meaningful partnership, and when opportunity and investment are unevenly distributed.
That must change.
That is why I'm running for Chairman—to bring proven leadership, collaboration, and results to every resident in every community across Fulton County. Not as North Fulton or South Fulton. Not as city versus city. But as One Fulton—united in purpose and moving forward together.
The work continues, and I'm ready to lead Fulton County into its best chapter yet.
Yours In Service,
Certified* County Commissioner
