Returns Open Thread

by GAWire on July 18, 2006

Polls are closed.  Returns are coming in. 

What do you think?

In urban areas, so far, it seems the night belongs to Casey. It is the rural areas where there is a fight. But, the night is still young. Moore is beating Reddy at this stage.

—-

Casey is doing well so far in Cobb County — very well. He’s also leading in Fulton.

—-

Has the constant punching in Ralph’s face paid off? Casey’s won freaking Pulaski County, folks!

Please your bets. Will there be a runoff for the Dem’s Governor race?

—–

Don’t look now, but Konop is getting slaughtered by Price? What was that about Price being so nervous he had to run ads?

——

I don’t see how Ralph can pull this out. I think we’ve got Lt. Gov. Cagle. Someone better put some cinderblocks on Joel’s head.

Gary is certainly pulling away. Unfortunately, we may not avoid a run-off. Kemp is closer to Strickland and Greer in votes than he is to Black.

Oh I’m so excited! I didnt know how things were til I got on here, because of course my local news isn’t covering it.

mercergirl July 18, 2006 at 9:47 pm

well- i should say they arent covering it at this time :p

McKinney down neary 8 points with 23% in. Is it possible?

Dignan July 18, 2006 at 9:52 pm

FYI – Hank Johnson is leading Cynthia McKinney 49% to 42%…..I can’t believe that people voted for that jackass John Coyne…..they may be the reason this ends up in a runoff. Morons!

Broty July 18, 2006 at 9:55 pm

Anyone have thoughts on the Republican Gov. primary? With 45% of precincts reporting, does almost 13% for McBerry signal trouble for Sonny or is it just the Flaggers making noise?

Mike July 18, 2006 at 9:59 pm

Sonny will cruise. No problem.

Havent heard anybody talk about the major red flag foe Kathy Cox,the incumbent only getting 65%….if she goes head to head w/Majette right now she loses…..she must be freaking out….very poor showing tonight

Oz July 18, 2006 at 10:09 pm

And McKinney might win a runoff.

Dignan July 18, 2006 at 10:15 pm

If the 4th District goes to a runoff, there should be hell to pay for that jackass interloper Coyne from Alpharetta coming down here to my district and screwing things up.

rjhatl July 18, 2006 at 10:25 pm

I agree with dignan. I’m starting to wonder if Coyne was really a McKinney supporter the way he’s obviously throwing the race.

gsublh July 18, 2006 at 10:30 pm

This Coyne fella..needs to move away from Georgia,period. Cynthia was just on TV holding Cindy Sheean’s hand…mugging her in front of the camera…good Gawd!

I can’t believe the stomping that Reed just got…this is a hard lesson (pill) for him to swallow, maybe he can go after Norwood’s seat one day when he retires. But,I’m sure most of you are pleased, he’ll never run statewide again.

Handel looks good on TV, she is a real asset to the party.

GAWire July 18, 2006 at 10:37 pm

Let’s be perfectly clear: RALPH REED IS D-O-N-E

Two comments:

As far as Joel’s head and the cinder blocks: The thrashing that Gary Black gave Brian Kemp should be somewhat humbling to Joel.

Second, in House District 144, Jimmy Pruett (R?) beat Wayne McGuinty (R) by 2:1 margin in their efforts to replace Terry Coleman. I question Jimmy Pruett’s Republican credentials because he gave $6,000 to Cathy Cox before he decided to through his hat into the Republican primary to replace Coleman after he announced he was not running again. Needless, to say, I am disappointed in Wayne’s showing and very cynical about Jimmy Pruett’s GOP credentials. I guess we will see.

The Real Sporer July 19, 2006 at 7:57 pm

Viewed from afar, Ralph Reed seems way too smart to be D-O-N-E. He seems like a pretty smart operator who maybe got just a little to close the man in the black hat.

This Abramoff stick will probably go away and you might see Ralph on top again.

But hey, lots all get together behind the winner and kick the Dems’ collective a***s in the Heart of Dixie and the Heart of America.
