FOCUS: Standing up to pressure to keep elections honest

By Andy Brack | It’s the second day of a new year just after a presidential election  and you pick up the phone.  At one point, the guy on the other end of the line says, “All I want to do is this: I just want to find 11,780 votes , which is one more that we have because we won the state.”

BRACK: My first real work was under frantic and constant pressure

By Elliott Brack  |  It doesn’t hurt to be under pressure to see how you fare. Now what to me seems tame these days was right up there in a pressured situation back in my early days in a newsroom. It was the first Friday night in September with me just starting to work on The Macon Telegraph, the morning newspaper. Previously I had been on the afternoon paper, and moved to the a.m. paper on Labor Day.
