As of March 4, Everton Blair has announced that he is no longer running for Georgia State Superintendent. On Blair’s instagram he wrote, “We’re pausing this campaign for now, but we will continue to support the work for Georgia’s students.”

He plans on finishing his term as Chairman on the Gwinnett County Schoolboard until the end of his contract in 2022. His team put out an official statement on multiple social media platforms stating the reason for the suspension of the campaign was financial and personal sacrifice.

Blair writes on his Twitter, “That vision was and will always be bigger than me, and I remain grateful that we uplifted real education priorities that were getting lost in the political noise.” Blair plans on supporting other candidates for the upcoming election for the Ga State Superintendent.
