You have to count the six imaginary counties in Cynthia McKinney's district.

Silly me, how could I have forgotten those?

Seriously, I was guessing when I said 165. I was pretty sure it was between 150 and 175.

I lived in Delaware as a child and can still name ALL Delaware counties (Sussex, New Castle and Kent). ;`)

I wonder how many of those Coyne votes would've went to Johnson.

I lived in Memphis area from '83 to '98 and really liked it. People from everywhere seemed to find that amazing but those 15 years were very enjoyable.

Daughter grew up there and we still have many friends from there and visit occasionally.

[Chuck54]

Fingers crossed for Hank.

Braves 6-0. LaRoche homered.

[MplsSteve]

You must have lived in Collierville or Germantown, right?

[Chuck54]

I was born and educated in Georgia but no way can I name all 159 counties. I still see Georgia tags with county names and ask myself, "Is that county in Georgia"?

With 3 counties, I might could have pulled it off too.

Bartlett, nice little area. It has changed tremendously though.

It doesn't really matter, since the trick is to keep McKinney under 50% to force a run-off, where anything can happen; if Johnson was McKinney's only opponent, McKinney would almost certainly win tonight. Every vote for Coyne is a vote that makes it more difficult for McKinney to win tonight.

Still no results up for McKinney's District 4 ?????

Hanky Panky Alert!!

[rattrap]

Good point.

[devane617]

Did the courts stop the voter id law...Last time I saw any news aboutit, it had been stopped.

[Chuck54]

McKinney 121, Johnson 118 w/ 4.79 % reporting.

[Chuck54]

I think so but I still had to show my picture ID this morning, as I always have.

No big issue unless you're trying to scam the system.

[ArmstedFragg]

Did the third candidate get more than 3?

[RobFromGa]

Cagle....36,056... 55.1%
Reed.....29,433....44.9%

20% precincts reporting

[rlbedfor]

Goodnes. I need to drive over. I can count faster by hand then they are. Cynthia will be out in the streets with Jesse claiming fraud before they get them all counted.

[Chuck54]

Coyne has 50, good news.

[Republican Wildcat]

Too bad there had to be two candidates opposing her to split the opposition...that'll make it tougher.
