Voting discussion thread

As predicted there are a bunch of runoff elections here in Georgia. I was a bit surprised that the democratic governor race was decided and not close at all.

Former tennessee coach Derek Dooley is in a runoff for senate on the republican side.

Looks like former barn coach and Florida resident tubby will be the next governor of Alabama
the republican run-offs for governor and senate are going to be a clown show of folks trying to out maga each other

based on the little i have seen of him, dooley truly seems like a simpleton. it will be interesting to see if that helps or hurts him

If he is a simpleton he will fit right in as a member of Congress. After all we are concerned about those islands tipping over, and don't forget about World War Eleven! I watched a documentary on that the other day. Wow what a conflict.
 
I believe Dooley actually has a law degree.
Dooley is smarter than most of congress already.

Georgia is #26 out of 194 law schools, solid.

Derek Dooley holds a bachelor's degree in government and foreign affairs from the University of Virginia and a Juris Doctor (J.D.) degree from the University of Georgia School of Law.
His educational and early professional background includes:
  • High School: Graduated from Clarke Central High School in Athens, Georgia.
  • Undergraduate: Attended the University of Virginia, where he walked onto the football team as a wide receiver, later earned a scholarship, and graduated in 1990.
  • Law School: Earned his law degree from the University of Georgia in 1994.
  • Early Career: Briefly practiced law at the Nelson Mullins Riley & Scarborough firm in Atlanta before transitioning into a 28-year career in college football and NFL coaching.

Hit Them Where It Hurts​

Asking Black athletes to sacrifice for the greater good could reshape college sports and national politics alike. But it won’t be so easy.


The gerrymandering rush has been speedy, calculated, and legal, prompting no shortage of concern from politicians and voters. On Tuesday, the NAACP announced an effort to do something about it. In a press conference, NAACP President and CEO Derrick Johnson urged Black athletes and fans to boycott state-funded universities in the Deep South, in an effort to exploit one of the region’s biggest weaknesses: its passion for college sports. Flanked by members of the Congressional Black Caucus (CBC), Johnson said: “No one Black should be on a playing field of institutions that’s living off of our labor and yet in states that are seeking to reinstitute a sharecropping reality.”

Hahaha, like any premier athlete is going to turn down seven figures because the NCAA told them to...
