No, we don't walk away. But when we're holding on to something precious, we run.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Facing health challenges, Republican Sen. Johnny Isakson of Georgia said Wednesday he will retire at year’s end, a departure that sets up a rare election in November 2020 when both of the state’s Senate seats will be on the ballot.

Which opens up both of our Senate seats for the 2020 election. I'd love to see Michelle Nunn run again...she did pretty good last time.

IF, BIG "IF" these new voting machines work & we haven't had a big portion of our voters dropped off the lists...like last election, we could very well squeak out at least one Democrat...and if super lucky...both of them.
Not many are happy with Purdue. He will struggle to win again...and he is the nephew of Head of Ag.Dept., Purdue.
