Great News!
I spoke with a source in the state Senate who told me today that Gary McConnell (ex-GEMA director) is a go for district 52. In addition to that, state Rep. Ron Borders should be a lock to hold state Sen. Tim Golden's Valdosta district. They've fielded candidates in Athens, West Cobb, South Georgia (including the mayor of Alma to take on Tommie Williams), Augusta and LaGrange. We may be able to win back the state Senate without even defeating any of the party switchers, as at least 3 of the seats I mentioned above have strong Democratic performance numbers. It would be nice to beat the four turncoats, though.

Who is "they" - the Democrats?
I don't think Sen. Lee is all that popular in the LaG, but that's just my impression. The only contact I had with him was him telling me (via a third party) that he agreed with me (anti-confederate) on the flag thing a few years back, and he voted with Roy on it, and then I think also supported Sonny's position later, the referendum. Ear to the ground, finger in the wind.
