nbc13.com - Decision 2002

It looks like Least-Objectionable-Republican Bob Riley is going to win the nomination without a runoff. He's at over 70 percent, and even with less than a quarter of the ballots counted, he should wind up with better than 50 percent. Steve Windom, the Lieutenant Governor, was the main challenger and he is on TV conceding. He'll face the current Governor Don Siegelman in the general election, and I will probably vote for the Libertarian because I won't vote for a Republican but I kind of hope he wins. We'll see how the general election goes.

Earl Hilliard has a sizeable lead over Artur Davis, but it's early. Unfortunately, it appears Twinkle Andress won't make the runoff for Treasurer.
