Why should you choose to contribute to my campaign instead of some other campaign?         First, because the goals of my campaign mean that you will do more to help every Democratic candidate by contributing to my campaign. I am focused on developing local party organization throughout the 9th Congressional District. Statewide Democratic candidates get 47% of the vote. They do it by getting 75% in Atlanta, where there is not much room for improvement. Then they get 20% in rural Georgia, where there is a lot of room for improvement. I'm the hardest working Democrat you know, and I'm working where there is a lot of room for improvement - helping every Democratic

Barberitos only business open in Watkinsville

The businesses and streets in Watkinsville are two different stories. The the ice snd snow in the streets are melting and fine to drive as long as you're slow and cautious.  Lots and lots of pedestrians out walking, dragging sleds; having their kids enjoying the weather. The temperature of your Oconee State Bank is 43 degrees. Drive now if you must, be slow, be careful, and pay attention to the water flow, the ice, and the snow and don't drive after the temperature drops below back below freezing as it will later on this evening. Saw the folks from LAD TRUCKING at Barberitos and they almost smiled at me, not quite though.
