| well we won Chief Justice and Lt. Governor |

Congratulations to Sue Bell Cobb and Jim Folsom!
I'm disappointed that John Tyson didn't beat Troy King -- I really had that race pegged as an upset.
I haven't yet been able to find final figures for the state house and senate races. It looks like the Republicans picked up a couple of seats in the house, but we still have a solid majority.
And damn it, the good guys in Washington took the HoR, and maybe the Senate! :fingerscrossed:
As Craig Ferguson says nightly, it's a great day for America! :)

| 1. I had hopes for Tyson, too. |
|
I think those nasty misleading ads hurt him.
But I'm really happy that Sue Bell Cobb won!

I think Tyson waited a little too long to hit back. He should have responded to that one ad sooner, you know the one where a woman that he prosecuted for theft accused him of being "soft on crime." :rofl:

| 3. Folsom and Cobb victories are so, so sweet. Let's see how |
|
much they can do to straighten things out in Montgomery. I feel a little better about our 10th century court system with Sue Bell in charge.

It's almost inconceivable that a state that elected Roy Moore to be Chief Supreme Court Justice could turn around and elect not only a democrat, but a female, for the same job! Congratulations, Sue! Hope she runs for gov in the future...
