GOVERNOR'S RACE, REPUBLICAN: Baldwin County voted for incumbent Brian Kemp 3.8 percentage higher than the statewide average. Kemp clobbered challenger David Perdue in what was a tight race a mere two months ago.
SECRETARY OF STATE, DEMOCRAT: Floyd Griffin's long shot run at Secretary of State culminated with a fourth-place finish. Griffin missed earning a spot in next month's runoff by roughly 8 percentage points. Here in Baldwin County, however, Griffin put up big numbers.
UNITED STATES SENATE, REPUBLICAN: Herschel Walker ran through his competition as if they were the Vanderbilt Commodores' defense. Walker carried Baldwin County with 79.5 percent, more than 10 percentage points higher than the statewide average. Walker grew up two counties away over in Wrightsville.
LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR, REPUBLICAN: Burt Jones, who currently is Baldwin County's State Senator, appears to have won the GOP primary outright and will avoid a runoff by a razor-thin margin. Jones can partially thank Baldwin County for this, where he polled nearly 23 percentage points above his statewide total of 50.1 percent.
SECRETARY OF STATE, REPUBLICAN: Jody Hice, who currently is Baldwin County's Congressman, was defeated by incumbent Brad Raffensberger in a result that many pundits didn't see coming. Hice has received strong support from the Baldwin County Republican Party in recent months and polled well ahead here in Baldwin County.
Everything sounded so lovely until the end.
“We tried”
If that’s not disheartening idk what is. I feel the need to quote my mom here. “I can’t have nothin nice”. Wiser words were never said.
Oh! And for gods sake STAY HYDRATED if you want to save on hospital bills. I hate summer.
Member when the river was fun and didn’t get angry and take lives? You could float down hopefully by sunset with only burnt skin that was a problem for later you? Member when your biggest fear were all the scary gar lingering about?
Partly Cloudy , with a high of 90 and low of 72 degrees. Partly Cloudy for the morning, clear overnight.
loving that suit! That hippie has style and wears it well.
I member hearing about this. So incredibly sad. The lady I spoke with couldn’t have spoken higher of the man he was.
"unless someone wishes to make some sort of far-flung statement about their dissatisfaction with both major political parties" omg! YES PLEASE! There's no choices, and they will never allow an independent a fighting chance. Other countries have multiple candidates to choose from.
Any reason why the sheriff rarely makes a statements its alway another Deputy isn’t the sheriff, the elected official in our county?
