Georgia Supreme Court
Non-partisan election held July 20.

Grant Brantley. Non partisan election. It’s rare voters get to vote on State Supreme Court justices. When a member dies or retires, the Governor appoints his successor, and typically no candidate ever runs against a sitting justice. The Georgia Supreme Court has taken a turn to the liberal in recent years, and Leah Sears-Collins, the incumbent, is one of the liberal quartet which stuck down the sodomy statute a few years back, sided with the Attorney General against Governor Perdue in an instance the Governor clearly had authority, and this year voided the sentence of a high school athlete with a history of sexual misbehavior who had been convicted of a felony for having sex at school with a fifteen year old girl. The court made a political decision with racial overtones instead of ruling on the legal merits of the case. Like other states, same sex marriage looms as an issue the court might take up in the near future. Challenger Brantley gives every indication of making a better supreme court justice than Leah Sears-Collins has been. He promises to end the liberal bias of the Georgia Supreme Court.

U.S. Senate.

Mac Collins, Republican Primary. Congressman Collins has fought free trade deals since he went to Congress. Both as a legislator and since, he opposed changing the state flag. He supports the marriage amendment, too. More than any other candidate in the race, he supports what the Georgia Heritage Coalition stands for.

6th Congressional District.

Robert LaMutt, Republican Primary. LaMutt is presently in the Georgia State Senate, where he has stood up for our heritage and flag. His opponents include Chuck Clay and Tom Price, both State Senators who oppose our heritage. Chuck Clay is a “Roy Barnes” Republican.

House of Representatives

House District 36

Taffy Rice, Republican Primary.

House District 38.

Steve “Thunder” Tumlin, Republican Primary. Based on info from websites only. Mr. Tumlin is a very substantial citizen of Marietta, with an impressive background of accomplishment. Like Roy Barnes, Tumlin’s Republican opponent Ceminsky claims to be a fiscal and tax conservative, but he proclaims himself a member of the Cobb County NAACP, a graduate of late Senator Coverdell’s liberal leadership institute, and proponent of “inclusiveness”, another word for multicultural diversity.

House District 43.

Tom Boeck, Republican Primary. Mr. Boeck is running against Bobby Franklin, and that is reason enough to be for him. Mr. Franklin played a very big and public role in preventing the 1956 Georgia flag from being part of the flag referendum. In addition, this former head of an SCV camp publicly called the confederate battle flag a racist symbol of hate.

House District 68

Timothy J. Bearden, Republican Primary. Since Mr. Bearden has the support of our fellow heritage community, and he has promised to introduce a bill to give us a chance to vote for the 1956 flag, we have little choice in endorsing him. Neither George Pope nor Brian Hager show any interest in Southern Heritage nor our other issues...and Hager is an opportunist liberal who should be running as a Democrat in Midtown Atlanta.

House District 69.

Wayne Seabolt, Republican Primary. Jeff Brown, the incumbent Republican, has supported the flag in past votes, but has not answered our email nor mentioned the flag this year or any other issue we are promoting, so far as we can tell. Seabolt, on the other hand, is making some of our issues the basis of his campaign. If he is elected and follows through, Seabolt will be no friend to the downtown Atlanta Establishment.

House District 95

Robert Mumford, Republican Primary.

House District 153

Michael Spinks, Republican Primary. His opponent is Austin Scott, one of the most gung-ho Republican flag changers in the legislature. Austin Scott joined with Tyrone Brooks years ago to change the flag. A vote against Scott is a vote to send Republicans a message on the flag.
