Johnson]]. Two years later, Mattingly would help Howard Hollis "Bo" Callaway (1927-2014) organize the Georgia Republican Party and joined Callaway's ticket as a candidate for the [[United States House of Representatives]] against incumbent Williamson Sylvester Stuckey, Jr. (born 1935), whose father founded the Stuckeyn of gift stores.
