Some of you may not know this, but there are several races THIS November for State House and State Senate caused by the vacancies of sitting General Assembly members.
One such race is in Milledgeville. Bobby Parham was the State House member, a Democrat, from Milledgeville (get to Macon and head 45 minutes northeast), but he retired to take a post with the Department of Transportation. That left the seat open, and a special election was called for November 3rd, 2009. Only ONE Democrat has qualified in this free-for-all, whomever gets the most votes wins election.
Darrell has an event this week and here's your chance to meet this Democrat from middle Georgia who stepped up when his Party needed him. Thanks to Stephanie Stuckey Benfield for forwarding this event to me:
