NE Ga House race still in dispute

We go into the weekend with still no certification of the December 4 special election in Georgia House District 28, a contest that appears to have been won by former Banks County School Superintendent Chris Erwin by a mere two votes out of more than seven thousand ballots cast. If the results hold, Erwin will unseat incumbent Republican Dan Gasaway in the district that covers parts of Banks, Stephens, and Habersham counties.

Representative Gasaway, who is from Homer, continues to talk about a legal challenge to the election. Either he or Erwin will represent the district in the legislative session that begins one month from today.
