Certainly a disappointing night.

[Attorney General, LGC Speaker, and Former PPT Dwarven Dragon]

Certainly a disappointing night.

A 9-point swing to the D candidate after a Dem wave year is not disappointing if you're a democrat. Does not bode well for 2020.

Anything short of a win is a disappointment.

This is a tough district for a Dem to win, but these results point to anything being possible in Round 2. The Democrat won the most votes in this first round, and 5/9 counties went either for the Democrat or the third-place candidate. Republicans are clearly disunified and split. Should be an interesting runoff.

Last week:

A former mayor edged out his opponent in a close runoff special election Tuesday for a vacant southwest Georgia state House seat.

Bill Yearta, a jeweler and former mayor of Sylvester, received about 115 more votes than his opponent Jim Quinn, according to unofficial results from the Secretary of State’s office.


The two Republicans — both former mayors — faced off Tuesday to replace former state Rep. Ed Rynders, R-Albany, who resigned earlier this year. They were the top two vote-getters in a four-way special election last month.

Yearta received about 50.9% of the more than 6,700 votes cast on Tuesday,


Tonight we have the AR-22 Primary
