BRACK: We hate to predict, but statewide politics may not be over Tuesday

By Elliott Brack  | Here’s what we’ll predict: if the political polls are as accurate as the pollsters hope they will be in the 2018 election, politics in Georgia won’t be over today. We predict we’ll have a runoff in the governor’s race, and at least two other statewide races.

10/16: GwinnettForum’s 2018 endorsement issue

By Elliott Brack, editor and publisher | After nearly a full year of people campaigning for election in 2018, the end is near. On November 6, Georgians will vote in the General Election, picking the people to lead our nation in Congress, our state government and our local governments for the short-term future.

Despite all the rhetoric and commercials about the election, we can only hope that our voters will see through the smokescreens and innuendos, and decide for themselves which of the many candidates to support.

GwinnettForum again this year has interviewed state and local candidates—-88 so far—to learn about them so it can select the candidates most worthy of the Gwinnett voter’s choice. What follows is our endorsement of the candidates we think will best serve our area in the coming years.  It was a delight to see so many good candidates offer for office.

BRACK: Slight possibility Georgia’s political season could extend to December

By Elliott Brack  | Competitive election races may stir interest in politics, but you can also bet that it can also turn off people — with the continued barrage of political advertising, some of it hard-hitting. They may end up voting while pinching their nose.

BRACK: Congratulations to the only 3 people who so far have been elected

By Elliott Brack |   Though Gwinnett residents may be tired of all the 2018 politicking, the November election is still before us.  It’s not over yet, since so far we have mostly nominated political candidates for the General Election more than three months away.

There’s been much hullabaloo in the recent primary and its runoff, but so far locally the only persons to be elected who had competition are three new Gwinnett Judges.
