Business group ranks Borders & Reed highly

Lisa Borders scored 95 and Kasim Reed 93  in the Committee for a Better Atlanta’s candidate ratings.

In the City Council president’s race, Caesar Mitchell and Clair Muller both received a 92.

Although the ratings cover everything from “vision” to “infrastructure” to “public safety,” the organization’s perspective ought to be taken into account.  Business leaders formed the CBA in 1996 they were “concerned that City Hall was not hearing from the voice of business,” according to the CBA website.

Maria Saporta got the scoop on this yesterday.

The group also rated council candidates. Here are the full results.
