2010 Political Chat

Rep. Michael Burgess is winning by a landslide after early voting with more than 86 percent of the vote over James Herford. Looks like Burgess, who has represented the 26th Congressional District since 2002, will face Democrat Neil Durrance in the November election.
In the 158th District Court, Steve Burgess (no relation to the congressman) leads incumbent Jake Collier. Burgess has about 55 percent of the vote and Collier has about 38 percent. David Moraine has a little over 6 percent.
District Attorney Paul Johnson is leading with about 60 percent of the vote.
In the race for County Court at Law No. 1, the juvenile court, Chance Oliver and Kimberly McCary appear they could head into a runoff. McCary has slightly more than 31 percent of the vote and Oliver has a little more than 30 percent.
