Rep. Cox received a total

number of votes equal to only 5.4 percent of the total

eligible voters in Fayette County; and in the special

runoff between her and Dan Lakly, she received a total

number of votes equal to only 6.4 percent of the total

eligible voters in Fayette County.

It seems to me that Rep.

Cox was elected by quite a small group of people, the

small "faction" that voted in the Republican

primary.

If you, like myself, chafe

at the fact that your political choices were not allowed

to participate in this election, then call Rep. Cox at

404-656-0314 and tell her you want choices. Tell her that

you do not want only 6.4 percent of the total

eligible voters in Fayette County to decide who is going

to represent you in government. Tell her you want choices

in the elections, not just the primaries.

After all, if your

political choice is limited to only one name on the

ballot on election day, why vote at all?
