It's been more than four decades since Jimmy Carter campaigned across Georgia and asked voters to make him governor.
His winning race set the stage for his election as president in 1976.
Carter's just turned 90, but he was out campaigning on Sunday for his grandson Jason, a Democratic state senator and lawyer who's challenging the Republican governor, Nathan Deal, on Nov. 4, in a close race.
The former president and his grandson spoke during a church service open to the public in south Georgia, a key area for Jason Carter as he looks to woo former Democrats back to a party that many left more than a decade ago. The visit to Mt. Zion Baptist Church in Albany was part of a campaign push ahead of early voting, which begins Monday.

It would be nice to have men with good moral ethics in office....but it would also go against the cut throat world we live in. Good Luck.
