Good luck to everyone! It looks like all of us on Facebook have either sent a message, created an event, or put VOTE TODAY for our status, haha.

Got the joy of out-of-state ID with voting. Few people at my place, but lots of machines.

Fun quote of the day, "I don't care where he's from, as long as he is who he is."

Really tough making my final decision for Senate.

I got this notice from the Jim Powell campaign just about an hour ago. I'm posting it here in the interest of Justice, and because I think Mr. Powell has been wronged & injured by the process the SoS Karen Handel has pursued so far, especially in her 'secret ruling' which did not inform candidates of her actions until 'the last minute'. This does not constitute any candidate endorsement from me.

But please pass this along to others in the interest of Justice & Fair play. Thanks again & Cheers,
J.M. Prince

Here's the AJC story today:

"I would appreciate your help in getting this message out to as many
Democrats as possible. Also, if anyone saw any notice regarding my
disqualification today when they when they went to their precinct to
vote, I need to know about it. We already have a number of examples
and I am making a list for the Attorney General. Thanks. Jim.

Friends

In a partisan political move Secretary of State Karen Handel
disqualified me as a candidate on Thursday, July 10th but failed to
notify me. I heard about it on Sunday night from the rumor mill and
called yesterday to confirm the rumor. My attorneys went to the
Fulton County Superior Court and a Judge issued a Stay. After the
election today, I will go back to the Superior Court and formally
appeal Handel's decision. In her decision to disqualify me, Secretary
Handel overturned a Judge's decision (June 24) that had already
determined that I am a resident. This partisan action has received
considerable play in the media and I just wanted to assure you that I
am committed as ever to being elected to the Public Service Commission
in November. In fact, Handel's decision has made me more determined
if that is possible.

So, the good news is that I am still a candidate and I expect to win
today. Thanks for your thoughts and prayers. Please remember to vote
for me today in the Democratic Primary. Your support is very
important to me.

To help clarify the events, my son put up a post on last night that
does a great job at articulating what happened yesterday. Please

Here is the link to the AJC article:
http://www.ajc.com/news/content/business/stories/2008/07/14/psc_candidate.html

All 159 Election Boards have been ordered to remove all signs, posters
or notices regarding the disqualification. When you go and vote today
please look around to make sure this happened. Should you find any
such sign, poster or notice that addresses the disqualification, I
need to know about it ASAP.

Regards, Jim".
