[QUOTE="Skeptic, post: 425703, member: 2175"] I must be but I see you recognize it. For the uninitiated who think politics were never as rigged as now, that system was passed by a rural legislature and said that the popular vote leader of the race in a county was credited with a unit, one county. And the one with the most counties won. There were and still are a lot more rural counties than urban in Georgia, and a guy -- as they all were then -- could run up decent but second place totals out in the boondocks, win going away in Atlanta and suburbs, maybe Macon, Augusta, Savannah, etc. ... but lose the unit count to rural counties. Keep in mind that at the time a whole bunch of Georgians had never been as far north as Macon. I went once. Yep, it was aimed at Atlanta. [/QUOTE]
