Pre-Election Coverage

tnflag.jpgThe Tennessean is running more of its profiles of various state legislative races, including this profile of the race between incumbent state Rep. Mary Pruitt and Republican challenger Jim Boyd, and this profile of the race between state Rep. Ben West and Republican challenger Juan Borges. In

the Pruitt-Boyd story, make sure to read Boyd's comment below the story. In the West-Borges race, you won't find a more conservative Democrat than West, but with the GOP within striking distance of taking control of the state House and removing Jimmy Naifeh from the Speaker's office, I'd certainly be voting for Borges if I lived in the 60th District.

The Tennessean also looks at the House District 40 race involving incumbent state Rep. Frank Buck, the most ethical Democrat in the state legislature and the legislator whom Gov. Phil Bredesen refused to listen to. I'm glad I don't live in House District 40. As much as I want a Republican majority in the House, I couldn't bring myself to vote against Frank Buck.
