The Georgia Voter GUIDE
What are the 2025 Georgia elections?
(and, why they matter.)
On the ballot this year: your local leaders, your power bill, and your wallet.
The 2025 Public Service Commission & Local Elections
Why the Public Service Commission Election Matters
- The Public Service Commission (PSC) is a body of five elected officials who regulate our electricity, natural gas, and telecommunications across Georgia. They decide how much you and your family pay for power and what kind of energy sources companies (like Georgia Power for instance) uses, which is important for climate and your wallet.
- Public Service Commissioners get to decide how much of Georgia’s power comes from renewable energy sources. This has an impact on the quality of the air we breathe, how much pollution we and our loved ones are exposed to, and how we protect our environment for generations to come. The 2025 elections will determine if we get increased access to affordable renewable energy sources.
- Public Service Commissioners have a lot of power over which infrastructure projects get funded, and where they happen.
This year, you have the power to change all of that by voting for candidates who share your values and are committed to protecting your community.
