Republican Georgia?
Just food for thought.
If Tuesday had been November's election and all the splits were counted for a sole candidate of 'that' party, Georgia's statewide elected officials would be Democrats. See the numbers here.
Voters in Democratic primaries outnumbered Republicans in the statewide primary counts by about 6:5. Yep, this isn't just in the Governor race (where 13% of the Republican voters voted against Perdue) but in the "Big Deal in the Media" Lt Governor race. Reed and Cagle between them didn't pull as many votes as the four candidates for Democratic Lt Governor Nominee pulled.
I think it's worth a lifted eyebrow. It does cause a bit of disconnect with the 55-60% approval rating the present governor has in the polls.
