Meet Jayden Williams, the 22-year-old mayoral candidate whose resume might just make you question what you've accomplished in your life. With eight years of public service already behind him, this Clark Atlanta University political science graduate is mounting a serious challenge for leadership in Stockbridge, Georgia—and bringing fresh perspective, boundless energy, and surprising depth to the race.
The conversation reveals Williams' journey from community service at age 13 to becoming Youth Mayor in high school, then the youngest Planning Commission Chair in Georgia. But what truly stands out is his methodical preparation for executive leadership—interning in every city department from public works to economic development to understand municipal operations from the ground up.
Williams doesn't shy away from addressing Stockbridge's challenges, particularly the troubling mismanagement of $32.9 million in city funds. His commitment to transparency shines through as he promises a full forensic audit within his first 30 days in office and regular town halls to share findings directly with residents. "We have to find out what's broken before we can fix it," Williams explains with the clarity of someone twice his age.
His vision for Stockbridge blends pragmatism with ambition: rebalancing the tax burden from residential to commercial properties, implementing an "80-20 rule" for housing development to ensure affordable single-family homes remain available, and modernizing city operations that currently operate "in 2016 while we're in 2025." Perhaps most impressive is Williams' approach to engaging young people—meeting them "where they are" rather than expecting them to come to city hall.
When you hear Williams say, "If they don't give you a seat at the table, you take their seat," you'll understand why this young leader represents a new generation in politics—one that's prepared, purposeful, and unwilling to wait their turn. To learn more about this rising political talent who's truly "all in for Stockbridge."
