Dem primary: Bredesen has 165K votes
GOP primary: Blackburn 328K votes

31% reporting so far.

Does that mean anything for the general election?

More than twice the turn out for conservatives is a good sign in my book. Although it prob is no indicator.

Eta never mind. It’s not a total voter tally.

They said it didn't matter during the Primaries that the GOP was getting higher turnout than the Democrats...They were wrong..

I think Bredesen is running unopposed isn’t he?

He got one other guy; but the same could be said about Blackburn, she is a lock.

I hope your right. But I doubt you are. Blackburn won’t get much support from Middle and Eastern TN.

As Democrats go, Bredesen is actually pretty moderate.

Blackburn will not win in November. Conservative voters remember how good of a governor Bredeson was. Blackburn would be a national embarrassment, something Tennessee representatives showcase plenty already.

Praying to god that Dean beats Bill Lee. The last thing this state needs is another whackadoo social conservative to encourage the retards in the state legislature.

TN's 1st Congressional District has only voted twice for a Democrat since the 60's. The 2nd Congressional District has never done so.

And by 60's, I mean the 1860's. BEFORE the Civil War, and even with the shift between the parties throughout the rest of the South.

So Blackburn has no chance in Eastern TN, huh?

Bredesen will wipe the floor with her. Tennesseans liked him even if he was a democrat.
