Good for Sonny. I always liked him and despised Fatso Taylor. Also good for Sanford Bishop, my former congressman in Valdosta. And one of my favorite Democratic congressman. I hope he might see some leeadership in the new Dem House.
Mac Collins trailing in a close one? Wow. I guess Macon went big time for Marshall. I'm shocked he didn't do better given Sonny's big win. We all knew that Burns/Barrow one would be tight. As for David Scott, I'm not surprised at all. Like I told you, that is one of the most gerrymadered districts I've seen. The GOP drew it to swallow up pockets of minority votes from Henry to Gwinnett so that surrounding districts would stay GOP. Dirty, but smart.
Not anymore - Mac's pulled ahead by 2000 with 94% in. It might be the only GOP pickup of the night.
Good for Mac -- another former congressman of mine. Hope he pulls it out.
Yeah... you thought the Scott race would be close? I live in his district... and I NEVER saw any signs for that Honeycutt person... only for Scott.
in other things...
HEE HEE
Go Dems!
:)
