Hall Booth Smith partner and former Columbus Mayor Teresa Tomlinson publicly launched her “we can do better” campaign Wednesday for the U.S. Senate in 2020, becoming the first Democratic candidate to announce plans to take on Republican Sen. David Perdue.

The candidate, who is also a former Pope McGlamry partner, released a campaign video on Twitter the day after former state Rep. Stacey Abrams—the Democratic runner-up for governor—officially announced she would not run for the U.S. Senate in 2020.
