First box boosts Martin
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
The first numbers are trickling in in the Democratic U.S. Senate race and Jim Martin holds an early edge.
Of course, Martin got all of 41 votes in White County, the first to report results to the Secretary of State. Still, that’s better than Vernon Jones’ 9 votes, Dale Cardwell’s 24, Rand Knight’s 13 and Josh Lanier’s 4.
We’ve got a long way to go before this means anything. But still, at least now we’re talking about actual votes.
