Loading ...7TH DISTRICT STRETCH
A couple hours into voting and we’ve already had some bumps in the road. About a half dozen precincts didn’t open on time this morning. Clerk Beth White says some of the inspectors either overslept, had car problems or could not get into the building. By 8 a.m. all but a couple had opened.
My GOP sources also tell me that more Republicans than Democrats have been identified as taking absentee ballots. While that doesn’t automatically transfer into votes for Elrod or Carson, it does give Elrod a small boost in a District that is predominately Democratic.
I’ll have more throughout the day.
