Charles E. Martin Jr. (born July 20, 1961) is an American politician. He is a Republican representing the 49th district in the Georgia House of Representatives.

Martin was a City Councillor in Alpharetta, Georgia from 1993 to 1995, and mayor from 1996 to 2002. [1] Martin has represented District 49 in the Georgia House of Representatives since 2003, and is running for reelection in 2020. [2]

After Joe Biden won the 2020 presidential election in Georgia and Donald Trump refused to concede while making false claims of fraud, Martin supported a performance review of the top election official in Fulton County, a heavily Democratic county. [3] There was no evidence of meaningful fraud or wrongdoing in Fulton County. [3]
