Election in Georgia

  In Georgia, the statewide ballot had two races. Two incumbents on the Public Service Commission, which regulates public utilities, were seeking re-election. Republicans held all seven seats, but both incumbents lost to Democrats.

Percentage of the vote for Incumbent No. 1: 37.

Percentage of the vote for Incumbent No. 2: 37.

Approval rating of the Current Occupant of the White House: 37.

Republican leaders in Georgia said the election has nothing to do with dissatisfaction with the Current Occupant. They insisted he was not on the ballot.

If the Republican Party were not a wholly owned subsidiary of the Current Occupant, some of us would have considered voting for a Republican candidate. Like it or not, the Party of Lincoln has been rebranded.
