DEL.ICIO.USThat Oconee endorsement of Whitehead? Consider it undone.
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Remember that item about the Oconee County Republican party endorsing Jim Whitehead in the July 17 run-off for the 10th District congressional seat?
Never mind.
The party’s executive committee met Monday to rescind their Friday endorsement, according to today’s Athens Banner-Herald.
The endorsement had been an embarrassment to Paul Broun of Athens, who took the No. 2 berth in the June 19 vote. Oconee, which borders Athens/Clarke County, was one of six counties where Broun outpolled all other candidates.
