Biography

Andrew Scott Clyde (born November 22, 1963) is an American politician and businessman serving since 2021 as U.S. representative from Georgia's 9th congressional district. A Republican, his district serves a large swath of exurban and rural territory northeast of Atlanta, including Gainesville, Toccoa, Hartwell and Dahlonega. In 2020, Clyde ran to represent Georgia's 9th congressional district. That same year, he sued Athens, Georgia, over its shelter-in-place COVID-19 restrictions. As a representative, Clyde voted against certifying Arizona's and Pennsylvania's 2020 U.S. presidential election results. He described the 2021 United States Capitol attack as "no insurrection" and said it resembled a "normal tourist visit", although he previously acknowledged that he had helped to barricade the House chamber "from the mob who tried to enter."
