\t This was the third time that Conde matched-up against Diallo. Before the election, observers raised concerns that an electoral dispute could reignite ethnic tensions between Guinea's largest ethnic groups.

It has been a month since MARTA eliminated and reduced transit service throughout the Atlanta Metropolitan area, including Clayton, DeKalb, Fulton and the City of Atlanta.

On April 20, 2020, MARTA CEO Jeffrey Parker eliminated 70 routes and reduced services without any public hearing and without the approval of the MARTA board.

The actions of MARTA could have a negative impact in the poor communities where riders do not have a car to go to the post office or make it to the local precinct, or to go and participate in early voting because they do not have

a way to get to the polls.

I have read and heard from many citizens who have raised

questions about the actions of MARTA regarding the disparity and inequities in the services and which routes were eliminated.

In order to address these concerns, the MARTA board owes the citizens of

DeKalb, Fulton, and Clayton counties an explanation as to how the routes were selected and why, and a vote by the MARTA board to re-establish those routes that were eliminated.
