Tolbert For PSC

05/25/2026

Out today talking with voters about the issues that matter most to Georgia families — and one thing I keep hearing is just how high power bills have become.

One voter told me that people on his very street are paying dramatically different electric rates from different utility providers… even while using the same poles and wires. Georgians deserve fairness, transparency, and a Public Service Commission that asks the hard questions.

That’s why I’m running — to bring technical expertise, accountability, and common sense to the PSC.

Thank you, Georgia.

Tonight’s results were incredible. We finished first statewide with over 47% of the vote and won support from every corner of this state.

I believe Georgians sent a clear message: the Public Service Commission needs real technical expertise and independent leadership focused on affordability, reliability, and protecting ratepayers.

But we’re not done yet. The runoff is June 16th, and we’re going to keep working hard all across Georgia.

Thank you for your support. Let’s finish this together.

It was great to participate in the Cherokee County Republican Party Public Service Commission candidate forum and share my vision for Georgia’s energy future.
I am the only candidate in this race with direct experience working in the energy sector and a deep understanding of the complex challenges facing our state’s energy infrastructure.

As Public Service Commissioner, I will make informed, responsible decisions that protect ratepayers while supporting innovation and ensuring Georgia’s energy future remains safe and reliable while becoming more affordable.

Great to be out on the course with leaders from across Georgia’s energy sector at the Georgia Electric Industry Construction Coalition golf tournament. Special thanks to BrightNight for the invitation.

This event brought together utilities, contractors, and industry partners committed to powering Georgia’s future and investing in the workforce that will build and sustain our energy infrastructure for generations to come.

As Public Service Commissioner, I will work alongside ratepayers, industry leaders, and technical experts to ensure Georgia continues to lead with reliable, affordable, and forward-looking energy solutions. That’s how we deliver for Georgia.

The campaign is going great. A common topic that comes up is data centers. Take a peek at this quick video to see where I stand.

Great to be in Rabun County speaking to the leaders who care deeply about the future of North Georgia. As an engineer who has designed and developed power plants across multiple technologies, I understand what it takes to build reliable, affordable energy systems that serve our communities well. As your Public Service Commissioner, I’ll work to protect ratepayers, strengthen our energy infrastructure, and ensure Georgia is prepared to meet its growing energy needs.
