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.

BRACK: Here’s a way to make sense out of the many political candidates

MAY 11, 2018  |  Notice today’s date, May 11. That means there’re only 11 days left until the 2018 Georgia General Primary, coming on May 22.

What we’ve heard from lots of people is that there seems to be little interest in these races, and some mighty big offices are open to be filled. Remember the race last year to fill the Sixth District seat in Congress between the winner, Karen Handel and Jon Ossoff?  It got loads of publicity, constant television advertising, and oodles of money funneling from out of state.  Compared to that race, this election season is a sleeper.

BRACK: Watch the 2018 Election, for It Could Signal the Direction in 2020

BRACK: Watch the 2018 Election, for It Could Signal the Direction in 2020

By Elliott Brack, editor and publisher  |  The direction our nation will take over the next three years may very well be guided by what happens in the November, 2018 election.

Will our nation remain led by President Trump, who we presume will get the Repblican nomination in 2020 to fill a second term?  Or will some Democrat emerge from their ranks to upset the Trump applecart, and return our nation to a quieter regime?
