Kelley was first elected to the Georgia House of Representatives in 2012 after beating a Democratic incumbent.[3]

Kelley is currently a part of an investigation of a homicide that resulted from a hit and run crash in Polk County, Georgia. Shortly after the incident, Kelley received a call from the driver of the vehicle, Ralph “Ryan” Dover III, whom he had seen earlier that day. Upon realizing there may have been a hit and run, Kelley contacted the local police chief's home phone number, as opposed to calling 911.[4]
