BRACK: Gwinnett Republican Party mighty silent on upcoming transit vote

BRACK: Gwinnett Republican Party mighty silent on upcoming transit vote

By Elliott Brack |  Is the Gwinnett Republican Party vital in this county any more? Have they given up?

Since 1984, no matter where you stand, you have to give the Republican Party good grades for helping its candidates win office. In many instances, the Republicans recruited potential candidates and readied them for service. As a result, the party kept seeing their candidates win races. They were ready to serve. Many of those that the party brought along are still serving in political offices of the county today.

A. BRACK: On presidential campaign and what might happen

A. BRACK: On presidential campaign and what might happen

By Andy Brack | Come November 8, Southerners will cast about 33 million votes in this oddest and nastiest of presidential elections. Of those, more than 15 million will be for the Democrat, Hillary Clinton. That’s a lot of blue living in what most assume is just red.

Yes, our region, just like our nation, is more purple than just red or blue.

Recent polls indicate Clinton likely will replicate Southern electoral victories by Barack Obama in 2008, with narrow wins in Florida, North Carolina and Virginia. Republican nominee Donald Trump likely will carry the other Southern states, but 45 percent to 48 percent of voters in each probably won’t vote for him, based on past results.
