&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
    &lt;strong&gt;Registration:&lt;br /&gt;
    &lt;em&gt;There is no charge to attend - just give your time and commitment to work as a group.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;

    &lt;strong&gt;GHLA&lt;/strong&gt; and the &lt;strong&gt;Atlanta Hotel Council&lt;/strong&gt; will co-host the four party candidates for Governor and Lieutenant Governor at our special election-focused luncheon on &lt;strong&gt;Friday, October 15&lt;/strong&gt; at the &lt;strong&gt;Marriott Atlanta Marquis&lt;/strong&gt;. (Note: This is rescheduled from earlier published date.) 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
    Plan to join us for this informative session on the important issues of the day with the next Governor and Lieutenant Governor of Georgia. Democrat nominees &lt;strong&gt;Roy Barnes&lt;/strong&gt; and &lt;strong&gt;Carol Porter&lt;/strong&gt; face Republican nominees &lt;strong&gt;Nathan Deal&lt;/strong&gt; and &lt;strong&gt;Casey Cagle&lt;/strong&gt; in the general election. Come hear them talk about our key issues. We want you to hear their views on issues impacting the hotel community and our hospitality and tourism industry. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
    Show your commitment to our industry by your presence, as we interview the candidates for the state's top two jobs. We have also invited other candidates for statewide office who will be able to visit with you in the networking session from 11 a.m. to noon.&amp;nbsp;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
    &lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Registration for this event is open to all members of GHLA and others in Georgia's dynamic hospitality industry. &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;
