A career businessman, Mark Hajduk doesn’t mind if you call him a “disrupter.” In fact, he prefers it. The 45-year-old, who grew up in Marietta and now resides in north Forsyth, announced on social media Wednesday night that he intends to run against District 9 State Representative and incumbent Kevin Tanner (R-Dawsonville) in the upcoming primary election. “I am a political newcomer, that’s obvious,” Hajduk said. “I don’t think that’s a bad thing. There’s a term in business that is actually celebrated, it’s called a ‘disrupter.’ They give awards for it. It can be a person or a business that comes in with fresh ideas and a new perspective to challenge the status quo.”
