Thirty-four attorneys are among hundreds of candidates angling for a gubernatorial appointment to replace retiring Republican U.S. Sen. Johnny Isakson next year.

The list of lawyers includes a current ambassador, a state representative, a former state senator, several current or former political operatives for Gov. Brian Kemp or President Donald Trump, several former partners from Atlanta’s largest law firms, a smattering of former prosecutors and public defenders, and a slew of solo practitioners.
