Killer Mike Tried To Run For Ga. State Representative Seat

An Atlanta rapper who planned to run as a representative of Georgia’s 55th district in the state legislature wasn’t able to register in time.

Killer Mike announced Monday he was running as a write-in candidate in Tuesday’s election, The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports. The rapper, whose real name is Michael Render, posted on Instagram he was running, but hours later sent another post, saying he couldn’t run since he never registered as a write-in candidate.
