JAMES MADISON QUOTE - 1822

"A popular government without popular information, or the means of acquiring it, is but a Prologue to a Farce or a Tragedy; or, perhaps both. Knowledge will forever govern ignorance; and a people who mean to be their own governors must arm themselves with the power knowledge gives."

Republicans Win District 8 Senate Seat--Historical Event

Republican Shadrack McGill 20,596 votes.
Update: Nov. 3, 2010 story, Daily Sentinel http://thedailysentinel.com/news/article_ac7d4ca6-e710-11df-bc08-001cc4c03286.html
Democrat Incumbent Lowell Barron 20,013.
.
History breaking event, Republican elected to the District 8 Senate Seat, a very inexperienced Republican. The Jackson County Citizens will now live with their choice in this election.. This is the first Republican Senator since Reconstruction.
.
In the western part of the county, Wayne Johnson, Republican defeats Buth Taylor Democrat.
Now we shall see if the Republicans were all hot air concerning reforms such as Ethics and PAC to PAC transfers. What will the new Republicans do with Jackson County's TVA in lieu of tax money?
