  • From his experience in the Peace Corps in South Africa to his political aspirations in the US state of Georgia, Jason Carter is following in his grandfather's footsteps The 39th president of the United States Jimmy Carter - who died yesterday at the age of 100 - wanted to live long enough to vote in the 2024 American elections.

Jason Carter, the grandson of former U.S. President Jimmy Carter, has made a name for himself in both public service and politics. Born in 1975, Jason graduated from Duke University and later served in the Peace Corps in South Africa, reflecting his commitment to public service. Following in his grandfather's footsteps, he entered politics, serving as a Georgia state senator from 2010 to 2015. He ran for governor of Georgia in 2014 but was unsuccessful. Jason has described his grandfather, who turned 100 in 2024, as "stubborn," a trait that has perhaps contributed to Jimmy Carter's longevity and his continued influence in humanitarian efforts through The Carter Center. Despite his political ambitions, Jason has maintained a low profile, focusing on his legal career and family life, while still engaging in public service.
