() More fun with Georgia primary maps! Title: Re: GA: 2006 Secretary of State Democratic Primary Election Result Post by: RBH on February 08, 2007, 12:08:26 AM Nothing says "competitive primary" like one guy (Ray) winning 70% in two counties, winning 12 counties total, and finishing in last place with 7% in a six way race

()() The candidates State Rep Gail Buckner of Clayton County Darryl Hicks of Fayette County Angela Moore of DeKalb County Shyam Reddy of Fulton County (raised in Laurens county) Scott Holcomb of Fulton County Walter Ray of Coffee County Hicks is African-American, Reddy is of Indian ancestry (and he still fared well), I'm pretty sure Moore is African-American too Title: Re: GA: 2006 Secretary of State Democratic Primary Election Result Post by: Nutmeg on February 09, 2007, 01:29:11 AM My favorite candidates were 1) Shyam Reddy and 2) Scott Holcomb. Pity they finished 4th and 5th, respectively. Angela Moore was one of the most incompetent candidates I've ever witnessed. She had an official campaign rap that I remember being discussed on this site at some point. Reddy was a truly impressive candidate. Too bad his skin is darker than the average Georgian prefers.
I think this is the first county map I've seen in which the winner of a county received >10% of the vote. Lack of consensus is right. |
