Probation violation charge: Candidate with DUI back in jail

DALTON, Ga. (AP) — A former congressional candidate in Georgia who spent much of his unsuccessful 2018 campaign in jail because of a drunken-driving offense is now charged with a probation violation.
Democrat Steve Foster spent three months in jail last year, convicted of drunken driving in Whitfield County. He refused to quit his campaign for northwest Georgia’s 14th District seat. Released on Election Day last November, he lost to incumbent Republican U.S. Rep. Tom Graves.
