Is this a good sign for November, or am I way off base here? Governor - Dem Primary Georgia 3101 of 3147 Precincts Reporting - 98.54% Max Runoff Cands=2 Name Votes Pct Taylor , Mark 240,322 51.54 Cox , Cathy 205,597 44.09 Bolton , Bill 10,239 2.20 McCarley , Mac 10,104 2.17 TOTAL VOTES --- 466,262
Governor - GOP Primary Georgia 3101 of 3147 Precincts Reporting - 98.54% Name Votes Pct Perdue , Sonny (i) 364,931 88.39 McBerry , Ray 47,920 11.61 TOTAL VOTES --- 412,851
That's 53% to 47% Democrats. That might not sound like much, but for a state like Georgia it says a lot. Also, from what I've read here on DU, many Democrats switched to vote against Ralph Reed.
