Oconee County Observations
Dear Friends,

The Oconee County Democratic Party will hold a forum on Thursday night with candidates for three of the five races on the Democratic ballot in the June 21 runoff election.

Jessica Allison Fore and Tabitha Johnson-Green, candidates for the Democratic Party nomination for U.S. House District 10, have agreed to participate.

Dee Dawkins-Haigler and Bee Nguyen, candidates for the party's nomination for Secretary of State, also will join.

Charlie Bailey, candidate for the party's nomination for Lieutenant Governor, has agreed to participate, but Kwanza Hall, also seeking the nomination, has not.

Fore received the second most votes in the May 24 Democratic Party Primary, but Phyliss Hatcher, who received 137 fewer votes, has asked for a recount, and as of Sunday night, the Secretary of State Office has not given a final report on the recount.

The Republican Party has two races on the June 21 ballot, for Oconee County School Board Post 3, with Ryan Hammock and Julie Mauck seeking the nomination, and for U.S. House District 10, with Mike Collins and Vernon Jones in the runoff.

The Oconee County Republican Party had scheduled a forum for June 6 but cancelled that gathering because of scheduling conflicts.

Early voting will run from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday of this week at the Elections and Registration Office, 10 Court Street, across from the Courthouse in Watkinsville.

Thanks.

Jeff Dantzler's arrests may be the best thing that ever happened to him

THis has next to nothing to do with Oconee County with the possible exception of the location of his former office, but a former colleague of mine on the radio got popped today for four counts. Any one who has listened to 960 the Ref AM sports talk radio or heard the UGA Lady Dawgs or men's baseball team has surely heard the encyclopedic knowledge of one Jeff Dantzler. Jeff and I are pretty much diametrically opposed poltically, but today he was arrested on four counts including DUI. I hope he gets the help he needs following his incarceration. I work for a lawyer who could help him out if he does not having someone already representing him. This man is a great broadcaster and I hope this arrest serves as a wake-up call for him and his rock and roll lifestyle. I live a far from perfect life myself but long ago and far away I learned how and when not to drink. Now we will be without he dulcet tones on Lady Bulldog broadcasts as well as on Georgia baseball games and also on the after
