BRACK: Athens professor has forward thinking ideas in Senate race

By Elliott Brack  |  The 2020 election will be unusual, in that Georgians will vote for two U.S. Senators in November. Incumbent David Perdue is running for another six year term, opposed by Democrat John Ossoff. In a distinctive second U.S. Senate race this year, there will be 21 people battling in a “jungle election” to see who will fill the remaining two years  of Sen. Johnny Isakson’s term. That means that the winner will probably immediately be running for a full six year term in 2022.

BRACK: Enjoying the congressional baseball game in Washington, D.C.

By Elliott Brack, editor and publisher | The day after the Congressional shooting last week, my wife and I were in Washington, D.C. visiting our youngest daughter, who will soon be moving to Charleston, S. C.

Catherine suggested: “Let’s go to the Congressional baseball game,” and we did. What a great night it was!
