Primary Election Results in Georgia, USA

Wow, what an election in Georgia! First, I’m shocked and appalled that Cynthia McKinney slithered her way back into the winner’s circle. That racist bitch only campaigned in south DeKalb, and 10-1 we never see her above I-20 just like it was when she was in Congress before. I’m a little pissed that Majette opened the door to this comeback by jumping on the Senate race. However, I will vote for Majette in the runoff simply because I will not vote for a man who’s a known wife beater. I’m sorry, I just won’t do it, South Georgia roots or not. I think people underestimate Majette anyway, and she’ll be competitive in November. Don’t think she’ll win, but she’ll be competitive.

Another disappointment to me was the CEO race. Vernon Jones won it outright with 53% of the vote. Now he hasn’t been a bad CEO, but he’s a bully and an egomaniac. It’s also likely he’s a closet case, but that doesn’t matter to me. I don’t like arrogance in my public officials, and I at least wanted him to be taught a lesson by facing a run off. Like Cynthia McKinney, he only campaigned in South DeKalb. I know I’m a minority in my county, but please, at least show me the courtesy of showing up every now and again like you give a crap what I think.

That’s naïve, I know, but once again I’m stuck. I cannot and will not vote for Cynthia McKinney, just as I cannot vote for that right wing fanatic Catherine Davis the GOP is putting up. Cynthia McKinney is a racist of the worst sort. She doesn’t like white people, doesn’t like Jews, and won’t even talk to black folks whose skin tone is lighter than her own. Those dumbasses in South DeKalb have sent her back! I will likely do what I did in 2000; write my own name in for Congress. I refuse to just vote for the Democrat because they have the nomination, especially when that Democrat is as bad as Cynthia McKinney. It makes DeKalb look so STUPID!

Happily, Justice Leah Sears SPANKED the GOP lawyer trying to run her out of her Supreme Court seat. His campaign was fueled by the governor and by the Christian Taliban, headed by Sadie (Satan) Fields. This was going to be their big test vote for the gay marriage amendment in November. He ran against her saying she was “liberal” and an “activist” judge who favored gay marriage. But Justice Sears won with 66% of the vote. Stick that in your pipe and smoke it SADIE!

Another thing Sadie can smoke (and hopefully choke on) is the way incumbents who voted against the gay marriage amendment WON. Alicia Thomas Morgan, who moved me to literal tears when she spoke against the gay marriage ban not once but TWICE on the House floor, creamed her opponents and received 87% of the vote. Her opposition also ran against her based on the marriage amendment. But good won…decisively.

Oh, and the champions of the gay marriage amendment? Mike Crotts in the GA Senate went down to crushing defeat in his Congress race. He thought he’d ride gay marriage all the way to Congress. Wrong, pal. Lynn Westmoreland is also in a runoff for his Congressional race, and was the chief gay basher in the House.

My friend Mike Jacobs won 87% of the primary vote in his district. It’s not surprising considering all the effort her put into working the district. Now comes the tough part where he has run against the son (and namesake) of the former long time representative of the district.

For the first time, I’m really starting to think we could have a SHOT at beating this amendment in November. It may be a slim shot, but it’s a shot. I was terrified that the Sears race would be close or end up with her losing. That she creamed the anti-gay candidate despite the best attempts of Sadie Fields and the GOP establishment is stunning to me. I hope some of magic rubs off in the amendment fight.
