Georgia's 10th congressional district special election, 2007
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
On June 19, 2007, the U.S. state of Georgia will hold a special election to fill a vacancy in Georgia's 10th congressional district. The vacancy was created by the death of incumbent Republican Charlie Norwood [1]. Norwood won reelection in 2006 with 67% of the vote.
All candidates for the election are listed alphabetically. According to Georgia law, to win outright, a candidate must get a majority vote. If no candidate receives a majority, the top two vote-getters, regardless of party, compete in a runoff election four weeks later.
