McCain, John GOP 102,547 79%
Huckabee, Mike GOP 16,333 13%
Paul, Ron GOP 5,083 4%
People still want Huckabee. I understand. McCain doesn't really have that much going for him.
Even with only with one other active opponent Ron Paul still can't get past low single digits. His supporters are outspoken and yes, you do know every one of them.

Russel, Randy GOP 10,540 24%
If I'd have voted in this race I would have voted for Randy Russel. He looks like a great man, even if I disagree with her politics. The runoff will be April 1st and I have no idea which of the other two will win. Any ideas?

Ross, Charlie GOP 19,650 34%
Harper, Gregg GOP 16,493 28%
Landrum, David GOP 15,401 26%
Rounsaville, John GOP 5,734 10%
This one goes to a runoff too. If this holds then Gregg Harper owes John Rounsaville a bundle for his attack ads on Landrum. Landrum dropped fast and the only one making it happen was Rounsaville. One of his ads HERE
If the election had been held two weeks ago I would have pegged it Landrum and Ross (in that order) in a runoff. Money (in the absence of a vacuum) can't buy you love.
so in what universe can Gill beat Charlie Ross?
ReplyDeleteI assume that is how this goes on the special election.
1. Not this one. (Unless he campaigns like hell and folks with a lot of beef find a big beef with Ross.) :)
ReplyDelete2. Yes. Ross versus Harper. (Ross Wins)
Would like to see Glenn McCullough lose the runoff for MS-1. IMO he a stronger candidate than Davis, but really just another Haley rear-end kissing, empty suit.
ReplyDeleteI'm curious. Do you think DeSoto turnout in the General will be higher with Davis at the top? If so will that help both Wicker AND Davis OR Do you think McCullough's appeal to independent Democrats in the Northeast makes him too strong. I see merits to Republicans nominating either.
